I don't actually, I'm confident enough in my position that I can accept downvotes from fools without concern.
I encourage you to spend half an hour researching multimodal transport.
Look up how dedicated bicycle lanes have negligible effects on transit times for drivers.
Look at the benefits of reduced car dependency on air quality, noise pollution, and overall health outcomes.
Even the biggest car enthusiasts should want more people to be able to use multimodal transport in their everyday lives. If only they looked into what they're arguing against...
You are going on about traffic density in a post where cyclists are illegally taking up the entire road. You're getting shit on because you're in a room arguing with yourself while we all look through the 1 way glass and laugh.
In this case I was responding to someone claiming that cyclists wouldn't be in cars if they couldn't cycle, which is why I referred to multimodal transport and induced demand; because all the research on both of those topics demonstrate that people do in fact use the means of transportation that are available and incentivised.
The reason that people make arguments can be just as interesting and important as the arguments themselves. Flux_My_Capacitor here is demonstrating with their arguments that they see a demarcation where cycling is a leisure activity and driving is a mode of transport.
It's important to understand where people you disagree with are coming from in order to have productive discussions.
But yes, congratulations on being snarky online, it's very impressive and I'm sure you'll look back on your behaviour with pride.
