And I want to reiterate that America’s car culture is a deliberate, political move. Cars isolate people. It isolates communities. It keeps poor people away from other classes by virtue of them typically not owning cars/reliable cars and relying on public transportation. The same goes for other marginalized groups and intersections of it. It keeps interactions of different communities at a minimum because there are very few public spaces that different communities can interact in. Also, reliable, affordable, and extensive public transportation gives more people the ability to physically branch out to different areas.

All of this creates lots of isolated worlds with isolated people who are not only easier to control and convince of things, but they’re also more static in their thinking. I mean how can you even begin to understand another person’s point of view if it doesn’t exist in your world?
