    The point is that you are part of a larger community, and it’s appropriate to behave as such. People ride public transport every day, and you can too. You’re not better than anyone else, and if you have rural acreage, you can certainly afford the time and money to support the type of infrastructure that benefits the majority as well as our planet.

      Fuck are you on about?

      There’s no public transportation here. I’d need to drive an hour to the nearest city. In which case I no longer require the public transportation.

      Why would I be better than anyone? I’m worse off not better.

      I have more money and time because I live rural.

      What are you even trying to say ?

        Congratulations, you’ve identified the problem! Therefore, we need infrastructure, which is what I’ve been saying all along!

        Why would I be better than anyone? I’m worse off not better.

        You would literally be on the same transportation as everyone else. Poor you.

        I have more money and time because I live rural.

        Unless you are a farmer or similar, it is far more sustainable to live in a town. Living in an expansive rural acreage or in a suburb is a luxury that we shouldn’t cater to.

        What are you even trying to say ?

        I’m saying public transportation in rural areas is feasible, and something that is sustained in many parts of the world. There’s nothing about your situation that makes it so it wouldn’t work for you. You’ve just been heavily propagandized by capitalists who profit from our current broken system.
