Nobody is talking about taking away cars from people who live outside of cities. Yet this argument always comes up when problems with cars in densely populated areas are discussed.
Alternatives such as public transport, walking and cycling have always been gimped in favour of car traffic, lest the car driving populace complain.
Yes, obviously, cars are a necessity in more remote places. Nobody's taking away your cars.
Maybe this needs a shorthand. Just preface every discussion with "*not about you, fur trapper!"
Rubbish, these articles are nearly always written by and supported by the dominant voice in the mainstream media - young, liberal city-dwellers, who seem to have no concept that there is a huge part of the population who are funding their "progress", often at the expense of their own infrastructure and quality of life.
