It's on the front page and it's got an unbelievably stupid title.

I am amazed as well. Did they just sub every community with the word 'car' in it?

[–] LightDelaBlue@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah what is going on? Seems like every other comment is full on car-brain-cars-are-freedom insanity. No enough orange pilled people here. Is the opposite of the orange pill the sad grey pill?

Making up slurs like "carbrain" for people who think differently than your echo chamber is fuckin' lame as shit. You look gross from the outside, FYI. Found this post by sorting my "All" feed by Hot, not a member of your echo chamber.

its how they are called on the original sub.

Carbrain can be pretty succinctly defined as thinking this tiny little online community is the echo chamber, and not your entire car-default existence in your car-default country with your car-default parents neighbors teachers transit networks and policies

OK sure, you're the majority. Let me know when you succeed in remodeling all the metropolitan areas of America with your great influence.

Until then, I'll be happily driving around to wherever I please in my cars or on my motorcycle.

Yeah, I’m not sure you read that correctly, but you did switch from ‘oh no I’m being bullied’ to ‘haha nobody cares nerd’ so maybe you did figure it out. Anyway, nobody cares that you have a car, it wasn’t even your choice to get one.
