>>1949466Pretty much i was saying that all the stuff certain right wingers keep saying about the Dystopian Future is basically them living in it without realizing it. They keep talking about 15 minute cities and we are living in a pod and eating the bugs, how we are under control through the government itself, we have no freedom of movement, but the argument is even more funny when showing them a mirror of their own lifestyle. Suburbs are like islands and the car is a boat, if you lose that, you lose access to a lot of amenities and everything is 30 minutes to walk to and back to get anything and you basically are reliant on someone to drive and use the car to pick you up. Where even in a small city all amenities from Grocery Stores, Retail, Hospitals, Schools, Restaurants are all nearby you, especially your job, where you either
A. Do not have to use the car due to everything nearby you
B. You are car lite, meaning that you make less trips for everything or if you are lucky enough you have Transit Rich where you live with Streetcar, Light Rail, Bike Paths, Bus Rapid Transit where you need to go.
That's essentially it, everything is walkable, all things are nearby where you live, where you do not have to use the car much and have more independence especially if something happens to you in the car.
TL:DR Suburbs are the pod, your route is dictated by roads and highways you are watched over by cops and streetlights. Your car is a lifeline and if you lose that it's over. Also you will eat the bugs(Drive-Thru) and eat unhealthy food.
