I don’t think the artist is implying that people driving to work “deserve” it. Just that it happens by nature of a typical commute time with sunrise and sunset.
So I guess next time you look for a house/job, make sure the house is east of your job so you have the sun in the back in the morning and in the evening.
I think they deserve it. Engine exhaust and tire wear creates pollution that gives children lung cancer. Having a bright light in your eyes isn’t as bad as lung cancer.
While I agree that exhaust gas and tire debris aren’t healthy, I don’t think we can reasonably say those cause lung cancer in children. Certainly not in any meaningful number.
Lung cancer only accounts for 0.2 percent of pediatric cancers. And even then, it’s hard to say exactly what caused it: genetics, second hand smoke, radon, asbestos exposure… Exhaust and tire debris MIGHT cause cancer in a particular child, but let’s not freak people out beyond what’s reasonable.
The people in the fuckcars community probably. They talk like this all the time.
I’ll never understand this sentiment that we’re all supposed to move into the same neighbourhood that we work, or walk over 70km to get to our workplace?

May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;

It couldn’t be someone who drives east in the morning, noooo, it has to be someone who hates cars…
Dude, stop thinking like that.
Read a history book. We all lived where we worked 150 years ago. It’s normal.

Don’t be as smart as your screen name.
