I'd say he's right. In a way. Cars don't create congestion, they are congestion.
Fine. And with this realisation let's end the phrase "I'm stuck in traffic". Cars aren't stuck in traffic, they are traffic.
Every bike on the road is one less car.
Other than that this guy seriously needs to get out into the fresh air and spend sometime around people (if it is a guy, it's overwhelmingly most likely a bot and so a genuinely harmful thing to engage with, get angry about, republish here, or do anything with other than ignore).
Social media is just getting worse, and although there is much to like about defederation, a lot of the content here is not healthy.

Water falling from clouds doesn’t mean it’s raining.
Gee, I wonder what causes congestion in high speed lanes and roads? Too many fucking cars at the same time? Nah, it must be some communist subversion

Most intelligent conservative
Being independent and getting to use your bike is communist now
Who cars what science says, I love my penis-size-compensating huge truck, so I want more and faster lanes!
Well, mr dumbfuck, why don't you go to North Korea, they have 5 lane highways and only 3 cars a day driving them. Oh wait, true communists have no traffic jams? What?
Carbrain is a disease
Fix and expand the US public transportation system. Building infrastructure for automobiles is fucking backwards.
Poorly implemented bike lanes do create a lot of congestion though.
My city just half assed bike lanes so one street has them and others do not, with bikes having to constantly enter and leave vehicle lanes as bike lanes appear and then disappear.
This just leads to less people using bikes and then the bike lanes that are installed go unused while taking up space from the road.
Either go all in on bike lanes or don't, stop half assing it city planners.
Just because you made a bike lane doesn't mean you are a green city, the lanes actually have to be used!
That's wrong. A bad bike lane is better than nothing. Because the first step is appropriation of the space, once people get use to have a smaller space for cars, the painting can be more easily transformed into proper infrastructure.
