We only have to convince people to hate one more car than they already despise.

    Sure but that’s because they’re assholes, not because they own a vehicle. They’re like that outside of their Small Penis Cope Machines too. They litter, they’re rude, etc.

      Earlier you said:

      Plenty of terminally online cyclists think motorists are intentionally trying to run them over

      And I have explained why cyclists know that some drivers are indeed aggressive towards them: punishment passes, honking, etc.

      Sure but that’s because they’re assholes, not because they own a vehicle

      That is moving the goalposts. It’s easier to admit that you were wrong and we can all move on.

        I said

        motorists

        You said

        some drivers

        The brain rot cyclists I’m talking about think all drivers hate cyclists. Everyone knows these assholes hate cyclists. Some of the terminally online types think everyone behind the wheel is like them

          It only takes one crash to injure or kill a cyclist – there’s no such thing as a fender bender when you are on two wheels.

          Try commuting by bike for a month and you will understand why cyclists are so distrustful of cars in North America. It’s a lot scarier than drivers realize.
