Please go back to the fuck cars subLemmy or whatever the fuck it’s called. I don’t want to also block 196 for being annoying as shit about weird topics that don’t make sense and you can’t back up.
I have. There is a lot of actually good memes and then once in a while some fucker posts here instead of a community that I have blocked like fuck cars or politics.
Trains are barely more space efficient and what would we do with current roads for cars anywhere? If we just leave them there, nothing would be gained. And cars are just easier to travel by and make more sense in general.
See, this is why I don’t like these posts. You have to keep in mind that the train won’t be at that capacity because it is more limited in where it can go and when. Sure, if you are like going across a country it’s alright, and I don’t disagree, I’ve actually used trains for that. But as soon as it becomes the only source of transportation, we have issues.
The problem with having only car lanes is that they’ll always be congested, no matter how many lanes you add (look up induced demand). Trains have so much more capacity that we don’t run into this issue.
Basically, 4 car lanes=traffic jams twice a day vs. 2 car lanes + 2 train tracks= traffic flowing freely.
Of course a subway would be even nicer but those aren’t always an option because tunneling is expensive
And making train tracks across line distances is also expensive. Why would the government spend money there instead of something like the failing school system or defending the nation or trying to help with the huge issue of homelessness.

Well this Kind of post tends to reflect the opinion of most people Here if you want the other side of the coin go to r/shitposting in reddit
Pretty sure they have the same issue, considering blocking them too. Might be thinking of a different one though.
Oh no a single post you don’t like, better comment on it and threaten block instead of just scrolling a little
It’s so many at this point.
Fuck off
This is a queer socialist community better block it now
Wrong and wrong?
Trains are more space-efficient than cars and can therefore solve traffic congestion.
There you go. Not that difficult to grasp.

That’s a meaningless statement
By barely you mean 20 fold?

This post literally has car lanes in the fucking picture so get your strawman out of here
So then are we really saving space if we keep it there or are we just using more to make train tracks?
