The future of burgerland, maybe. There's no space for cars in a civilized world.

I heard a lot about burgerland and their carcentrism, but even they are not as carbrained petrolheads as USSAians.

Car ownership and use is prevalent in every developed nation. Even Netherlands and other places with good city planning.

This "future" you speak of will never exist

"Hurr durr, there's polution in every nation. A world without polution will never exist".

"Hurr durr, there's slavery everywhere (0 BCE), a future without slavery will never exist".

Seriously though cars are here to stay in some capacity. Trains aren't good ambulances.

When people push such absurd idealism all it does is make the more sensible approaches to sustainable trasit systems harder to argue for because everyone has already written it off after seeing people getting wild

Yes a world without dildos, bananas, murder and war will also exist because some unqualified withful moron said so on an online comment board.
