Wow what an exciting article, just kidding. Pointless headline, pointless content, but hey it's probably better than AI slop. Though I bet AI could do just as well. ChatGPT sez:

If you’re gonna get this butthurt about trains you might be on the wrong board.

I like trains. I take them on a daily basis. You?
>>
>>1995545
Sure ya do.

I absolutely love that I've stumbled into this sordid niche underworld of lonely autistic men who are enthusiastically for or against trains.

I hate Axios's terse style, but sure.
American Rail feels like it's going through a recreational-cruise style phase. Air travel's going to win on speed and driving is going to beat them on price. But they can win on customer service and comfort. I've used Brightline and their customer service is A+ and way easier to maneuver than airports. Outside of the NEC, it wouldn't hurt to reorient Amtrak's other lines for tourism. Or at least a more refined experience than microwaved burgers and grimy windows.

Why does the idea of taking mass transit on a daily basis confuse and anger you?
>>
>>1995565
None of this is sordid

Blaise? Is that you?

I thought we were all for trains, it's the 4-wheel cage that's controversial

>>1995594
Most people here support trains, but there are a couple persistent schizophrenic trolls spamming all the threads with train hatred.

The mathematician? No I think he's been dead for a few years. I'm still alive, or was last time my doctor checked anyway

>>1995594
I like trains, but I also am an actual person with opinions of my own, based on reality, not just regurgitating urbanism opinions fed to me by reddit and twitter bot accounts. Logically therefore I am basically a cagetroll boomer and I literally caused the "housing crisis"

Wow!! That is one GOOD ARTICLE, Chang! Please post more GOOD ARTICLES you find. Absolutely fascinating stuff.

You’re there unemployed guy who posted his schizophrenia meds on here, right?

That explains a lot.

>>1995600
The Teslabro commenter isn’t subtle with his trolling. It’s probably you.
>>
>>1995580
They should help with the Texas Central line, then they can get tourism bucks while beating the convenience of both airplanes and cars.
>>
uh oh the YIMBY woke up from nappy time
>>
>>1995677
Yes! They should definitely help with Texas Central, which I understand is mere weeks away from happening, Chang.
