This has been blatantly obvious since the 90s
And then “conservative” politicians will blame the cyclists.
Well, it’s true. Don’t you know mining for ebike batteries pollutes a lot? And bike lanes cause lots of traffic? /s
Those are some good points, I’ll ditch my bike and drive an electric car during rush traffic instead
What are you, some kind of communist? Real, red blooded Americans drive coal rolling trucks!
Beautiful, green, coal
Won’t anybody think of the poor children in the Congo cobalt mines? The ones absolutely nobody have a flying fuck about when cobalt was mainly used as a catalyst in gasoline production?
Damn DEI cyclists
And especially the foreign cyclists
2026 version: both the cyclist and weighted metaphor are in free fall
Only missing a diesel truck running over the cyclist…
A month ago I watched a movie from the 70s that depicted exactly the situation we are in right now. Country going lying their way to war for petrol
You happen to know the name of the movie?
Could be Tank Girl, who knows
Not sure. It could be The Deal but it’s a 2005 movie.
Was it Planet of the Apes?
You can cut the chain by voting the right people!
A good metaphor for getting rid of fossil fuels, makes pushing for further climate goals easier. After all less lobbying money and people in that industry.
isn’t towing one of the few legitimate uses for SUVs and trucks?
No, not really as they are pretty shit at it. Commercial vehicles are good at that and you can rent them when you need one.
Theyre shit at it because they are made shit from the get go these days. Towing was a valid use case when utility vehicles where used as utility vehicles not as status symbols for the fragile minded - it is the whole concept of these vehicles.
I do agree about commercial. Anything commercial is guaranteed to work so renting or buying that would be more beneficial than buying a pseudo utility truck these days.
