This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.

This community exists for the following reasons:

You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.

Rules

  1. Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.

  2. No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.

  3. Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.

  4. No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.

  5. No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.

  6. No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.

  7. No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.

Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.

I’m glad we are both in complete agreement that it is definitely impossible for any meaning to be conveyed other than a literal interpretation of the exact words being used.

Your contribution to this discussion has been very valuable and I’m sure everyone is looking forward to hearing more from you

I never said that, but that’s never stopped you from pretending I did, or imagining any other contribution. Why bother for me to participate at all when you’re clearly capable of carrying on both of our parts by yourself?

Curious indeed

don't hurt yourself trying to figure that one out.

I think by now your exposition may have harmed countless people in that manner

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

there you go, making up your stories again. see, you don't even need me here to carry on your fantasies.

[–] Carnelian@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The one thing I think everyone can agree on is that you don’t need to be here

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

oh, a new fantasy where you believe you're psychic.

if you don't like what i have to say, you're fee to leave or stop responding. are you capable of exercising that level of self-control? i suspect you're not.

I wish I could quit you

admitting you have a problem is the first step

[–] Carnelian@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Why are you suddenly talking about walking?

Why are you suddenly talking about walking?

back to making up your stories again, i see. why even bother to involve me?

Living in your head rent free is what the kids are saying these days

It’s nice here. I think I’ll stay a while.
