>I think what people are getting upset at is you are conflating not driving with some higher form of intellect

But that’s them presuming, I neither meant nor actually said that and I explained my intent above. It’s a mistake on their part. That fine, that’s life, but says more about them than me.

>when in reality it's a privilege really only afforded to people who live in often high cost of living areas.

Totally, that’s why I called it a privilege myself in the comment you’re replying to. People seem to have layered a stereotype onto me because I said I was a former car owner. It’s like saying you don’t own a television-maybe it’s often said in arrogance but sometimes you actually have a good reason to mention it.
