tweet by amtrak ben: i think we should build high speed rail next to freeways only because it would make drivers feel like complete losers all the time
edit: fixed alt text
Joke’s on you. I already feel like a loser all the time.
Let me present: the new constructed high speed rail line Wendlingen-Ulm, next to Autobahn 8.
That works. The local L trains running along side the highway in Chicago got me, seeing 5 trains roll by while barley[barely] moving in bumper to bumper gave me the final push to covert to public transit
Why do you want to make people feel bad on purpose?
Carbrains go out of their way to make pedestrians and cyclists feel bad on purpose, and society subsidizes their planet-burning nonsense and needlessly plans cities around humoring their personalized pollution machines.
Fuck 'em.
You are stuck on twitter mentality where everyone is radicalized and fights the other side.
You describe people as monsters. Go outside, touch grass, no one kills anyone on purpose. System is problem, not
Carbrains
Go outside, touch grass, no one kills anyone on purpose.

You live in a bubble world where you feel comfortably smug and want to talk down to other people. You are stuck on a Reddit mentality and it disgusts me.
Also, since you smugly (and deepy ignorantly) claimed no one kills anyone on purpose because you’re that high on your own farts in that bubble world of yours, here’s some people that kill on purpose, a lot more than no one. The source should be liberal enough for you to not whine about “bias” either. Maybe.

Its my perspective on you

Its easy to find on internet people killing in US.

Ultimate measure of safety is percieved personal safety. I have to admit I didnt know situation in US is so bad with over half of people feeling unsafe

As I live in a country where 13% feel unsafe

Realistically speaking ordinary people probably dont encounter agression on daily basis as they run errand, but violent acts happen more often so more people feel unsafe. Ordinary people dont kill for sure

I still disagree with your view of drivers on a highway
Car brain is salty
carbrains should feel bad. constantly.
You dont want to solve any problem. You want to make people suffer
You dont want to solve any problem.
What problem are you solving by smugly standing “in the middle” and snorting up your own farts here?
I want transportation system to be improved for people’s welldom and without trying to impose any views sacrifiing quality in the process
“See these losers on train? They built 20% longer route only because they wanted to make passagers see losers on highway”
You are in a room where everyone already agrees that high speed rail is good.
Someone makes a (very fucking obvious) joke about how high speed rail is so good we should build them next to highways to make carbrains jealous.
You: um actually we shouldn’t try to make people feel bad. Making people jealous is bad policy decision. Doing that would make the train less efficient too.
Everyone else in the room: yes we know you joyless nerd.
