I’ve got to admit that when I first heard of the anti-cars community, I was a little skeptical. “Whats wrong with cars?” I thought. But the more I lurked, and the more I watched youtube channels like Not just bikes, the more I understood just how shitty the world is around us. Fuck Cars.

      Same here. I spent my middle and high school years riding my bike 20+ min. just to get to the library, school, recreation center, grocery store, etc., all of which were somehow in different directions from my home, meaning no grouping tasks together.
