    Patriotism and “freedom” as expressed by Americans are concepts used to manipulate you and make you do things that are in other people’s interests, not yours. Here you are trying to steal some of the magic by cargo cultishly invoking the concepts, but I think you know it doesn’t work like that. In any case, it’s very cynical, both of you, and of those you are trying to ape.

    Nevermind that all of the USes car based infrastructure was made to sell cars. Anti walkable cities is as American as it gets. Living is a commodity under capitalism, so is basic transportation. Can’t let all those workers that generate our profit be allowed to go buy groceries without paying corporations to get there.
