>One of the main perks of public transit that americans often overlook is the human element that many of them fear. There's a genuine added life benefit to interacting with those around you, as opposed to the quiet isolation that comes from driving everyone alone.
>>220857515Who are you quoting?
Oh yes because I want to be talking to the junkie schizo masturbating in public.
>>220857515
Who would genuinely say that? Nobody on public transit talks to anybody but people they're already traveling around with.
>>220857624
>>220857577Unironically would be interesting
TRVTH NVKEWell not in america. Americans like to chimp out when they ride buses or trains for some reason
>>220857515>AIslop
>>220857667Why is that man wearing such short shorts?
>>220857515>AI medal
>>220857515>human elementNo humans use USoid public transportation
>>220857515Who the fuck uses public transit to interact with people? Most want to go from A to B and be left alone. The only regular interactions are with ticket inspectors and those are all but pleasant.
>>220857515a girl grinded her ass on my crotch on the bus
>>220858130I was once molested by an old lady on the bus.
>>220857515apart from saying hello to the driver I never talk to anyone there the main benefit of the public transit is that it's just cheaper than owning a car
I used to sell chocolate bars at the bus. My ride was basically free and bought a guitar with my profits
>>220857515that may work in east asia or parts of europe not in america
>>220857677im sure you dont do that
>>220858679I promise you it doesn't work in Europe
>>220857515If they were all or mostly white people I would like that but it's far from the case here
>>220857515Yeah I wonder what skin colour that human element is? Also, who the fuck talks to strangers on the bus? If anything, strangers get angry when they notice someone's existence be it through loud talking or doomscrolling on speaker. This was written by some detached caroid millionaire.
The benefits in question
>>220857515here is a question, why does riding the bus feel so much worse than the train? i get a train to work and dont mind it but one time they were on strike so i had to bus it and it was like torture. it wasn't noise or due to crowding but i just hated it. i dont know if it was due to the fact buses shake more or there is something mentally draining about seeing that you are stuck in traffic but it so much worse in every way.
>>220857515nigga really used ai to make a soyjak
>>220857935
>>220857539probably some faggot from /r/transit
>>220858795>If they were all or mostly white peopleWhy so?
>>220861429hold it right there buddy
>>220858979Why bring up race?
>>220857515>soy is when life quality in your city increases
>>220861502Look when you get your canadian passport maybe try visiting america sometime, it will be an enriching experience
>>220861597I went to Africa though. That and the idea it'a only minorities makea no sense aince I've seen countless bitching about white guys on public transport being dangerous too. Feels like people want to be forever scared but then can't cope with the mental and cognitive co sequences of it.
>>220861672Look maybe it's like that elsewhere but down here most of the urban poor are overwhelming part of one ethnic group and they tend to cause most of the problems, look up Iryna Zarutska if you want an example
>>220861764>Look maybe it's like that elsewhere but down here most of the urban poor are overwhelming part of one ethnic groupSad coping excuse. There's public transit allover LatAm, Africa and Asia. Like what excuse will you have in 20 years when you see modern public transit in those developing and ex-developing states in those places? In 50 years?
>>220861933My friend there's no need to get worked up over this, just come to the US and see for yourself how it is
This reminds me of the closest I ever came to having a girlfriend.Was coming home from school, probably first semester in college. The bus is almost entirely empty. A girl gets on, possibly in my age range, but could have been in high school, couldn't really tell. She looks at me and immediately makes for the seat next to mine. Me, being the sexless virginal loser I'd always been, turned into a deer in headlights and simply looked forward or out the window, terse and with a knot in my stomach. Despite her initiative, she did the same thing for some reason. Totally stiffened up and seemingly too skittish to say anything. My stop was coming up, I felt I had to try something. It's been so long, I don't remember if I turned to her and sheepishly tried to croak something out or not, but she just as sheepishly looked at me and mirrored me. I came to my stop, got up and got out and that was it. Near same exact thing happened on the train a couple years later but here I am a hardened truecel wizard. If this ever happens to you don't be like me.
>>220862006Blaming blacks for everything stopped being a debate tactic 60+ years ago. At this point why deny that you want the US to rot lol. You do realize that people in Asia, LatAm and Africa mostly aren't white right? Are you a bot?
>>220857624Skill issue.
>>220862143Look you can gloss over US urban problems by just holding up Tokyo Japan as an example of a safe non-white city if you want but you're kind of missing the point. So have you looked up Iryna Zarutska? Do you think such an incident could happen there?
>>220857515holy coal
>>220857515>There's a genuine added life benefit to interacting with those around you,yeah this is bullshit. I've been oversees many times and nobody talks to strangers on public transit. it's a complete fantasy.
>>220862143yeah and latin america is a shit hole.
>>220864093No one talks to (you)
>>220864115nobody talks to you, hans. I've been to germany.
>>220858795You wouldn't though. Even when I caught the bus/train when I was in uni nobody talked to each other because why the fuck would you do that. Maybe if you combined American culture (being loud and nosy) with European transit (functional), but in the real world, never happens.
>>220857515>There's a genuine added life benefit to interacting with those around you, as opposed to the quiet isolation that comes from driving everyone alone.who the fuck talks to anybody on public transport. I'm just listening to music and reading
>>220857515It's kinda true, even though yes you don't talk to anyone at public transport I used to ride the bus and metro all the time, and I like just people watching on my way to work, and getting off the train and buying snacks at the station.Now I moved to a different city with no public transport so I just drive around all the time from point a to point b. I noticed that I'm lonelier now and my depression got worse.
>>220864182>I'm just listening to music and reading
>>220864210niggers dont take my bus doe
>>220864486>doeyou are one
>>220857515And why would I want to sit on a bus with a bunch of hostile brown people?
>>220865588I take the train to Brussels and it's alright. Niggers are too lazy get up early so the ride is quiet and pleasant
>>220865859I know they are indeed quite chill, but I clearly said browns not blacks
>>220857515No one says this nor think this. Getting squished inside a crowded tram next to two hobos is not a good experience. I do think public transport is a good thing but most people wear headphones or something and interact with others as little as physically possible. Seriously doe to say something like this you have to never use public transports at all, everyone is tired and wants to get to their destination as fast as possible, no one wants to interact or whatever other gay shit you have in mind
I like how I can sit on the train and study my TLs for 30 minutes on the way to work and for 10 minutes on the way backI don't really want to interact with other people and having that many people in such a small space leads to the spreading of illness
A lot of euros say that because they don’t share train space with you know who’s
>>220862143>LatAm and AfricaThose are shithole with violent stats exceed america by a long shot. What are you even about, Rakesh?
>>220857515I do NOT look like this and I do NOT say this
>>220867279But they do tho. Browns go in big cities and big cities are where public transport is most prevalent. You do have some parts of Paris for example that are 90% white but even there you'll be hard pressed to not find a single brown
