No it doesn’t. Rampant abuse and bigotry does, and that is the reality most Americans accept that you deny.

It’s dangerous being around strangers here, especially male ones who will overpower and beat/kill you in public for the slightest offense.

So people, especially women and trans folk, are safer in cars than they are on public transport.

And that’s nothing to say of the Jim Crow era, or how public transport was denied during the lockdowns depriving the elderly of freedom of movement.

No. Getting rid of cars will always be bad. You’ll never have your green utopia and you ought not to have it.
