minus-squaremulcahey@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·9 months agoTBH I don’t think we have to read these posts as shaming the driver of these cars, necessarily. We could read them as indictments of all the choices we’ve made as a society that result in poor transit options & large vehicles. Choices like: under investment in public transit and rail Regulations that encourage/subsidize SUVs low density housing policies And, if we’re being really honest, the racism that drives so much of American public policy All of these are worthy of critique and fair targets
