Oh no, you're wrong. Public transport literally CANNOT work... after all, it didn't work in the USA. It's fundamentally impractical, and countries that make it work are performing magic.

/s obviously.

God I hate the responses on threads like this that insist on the impracticality of public transport worldwide because it doesn't work in the US. It's like mass Stockholm Syndrome or something!



Okay you can just stop that shit right now. No one said it's unfeasible everywhere just because it's unfeasible in the US. If you're sick of hearing about the US, I'm sick of every time someone says something about the US, someone else has to chime in and say "yeah but you're wrong because there are other countries". What you're arguing right now is that cars shouldn't exist in the US because public transport works somewhere else. Can you find the hypocrisy there?

Notice how I even said "it works in places like Japan"? Notice that? See it? Good. Now quit acting like like you're being oppressed every time someone mentions the US. Yes, the world is a big place, but guess what? The US exists and a lot of people live there. Deal with it.

Jesus christ it's like I insulted your mother or something.
