>>223848705
He does this thing where the entire ideology is just built around resentment. You see that a lot these days, people always fantasizing about making things bad for other people, there are no other goals just trying to make it worse for others

Besides that I think he largely misrepresents the continent and the countries. Amsterdam for example has a proper 2x3+1 highway ring right around the old town that connects it to various highways. Most people drive to work in Holland, the jobs are not in the old town generally. If you only watch these videos you would think they barely have any highways and they hate cars but they are full of them, in fact it is one of the most densely populated countries in the world so there are a lot of highways, rings and tunnels all over. In fact driving is so important there that Holland is one of the few countries in the world that has no highway tolls. I dont like these YouTube channels because it is really annoying to run into people online who watched his videos but dont actually know anything about the road system in countries, they are always very ignorant with a great confidence. I remember seeing a guy against highway lane expansion here because he watched these videos. Meanwhile Holland has these 4+4+4+4 setups at the busiest interchanges. If Holland had the road and highway system of Hungary the whole thing would collapse infrastructurally in instant, there are twice as many people there in less than half the size of the country. In general it is just very frustrating talking to people who learn things from these influencers, make honest discussion really hard

Highways aren't the issue, their placement is. Ring roads going around urban centers makes a lot more sense than ones that go straight through like most American cities. If you have a higher population is makes even less sense to build for cars because it's such a large inefficiant form of transport. Cars are large, usually only have one or two occupants, and you have to park that large car somewhere. As opposed to walking where you take yourself and whatever in your bag with you.
And just cause most people do it doesn't mean it's good, most people pick their noses and that's really gross.

They're all car dependent, just because it "has a metro" doesn't make it walkable. LA is notoriously car dependent.

Baltimore is a rotting shit hole pretty much only traversable by car lmao, LA has no metro and barely any public transit. Cairo is a ghetto. Dakar is a wartorn dump. America is the richest country In the world it has no excuses.

They can't. They do the same thing gypsies and Ukrainians do - spend 80% of their income purchasing and maintaining a used "premium segment" car like a bmw/merc while sleeping in a house with leaky roof and no flushing toilet.

Every major city in the US has a bypass loop highway that goes around it

>>223855235
I think this stereotype is exaggerated, the average car in Ukraine is probably around 15-20 years old. The expensive premium cars you see are probably local gangsters and a tiny portion of people with really high local salaries

And most cities in the United States and highways that go straight through the city, Chicago with I90, I290, I88 and I55, for example. These increase traffic in city centers and contribute to gridlock.
>>
people conflate what he is talking about, urbanism, to saying we should have no highways, no roads, no cars. if you go to europe, they are just as car centric as americans outside of urban centers. but because polcels have no nuance they think that njb is calling for total car genocide. its also interesting why far right people care so much about urbanism if they profess a hatred for urban centers and want to live in the suburbs/rural areas. its likely that they just want to be against anything that supports urban people because urban people are rural and suburban retard's political enemy.
>>
>>223851048
How is that a contradiction you fucking mong? You hate X so you move somewhere where they have the least amount of X. Makes perfect sense.

The only thing he never addresses is that cars are free from niggers and other undesirables - other than that he is on point and only retards would argue that car-centric cities are good.

>Birth rates fall as a result of urbanisation. That is it. The only reason.
During the 19th century Britain, Germany, and Russia all urbanized heavily and their birthrates exploded upward. Meanwhile France the socially liberal state where the earliest feminist movements began had already begun its demographic decline

Every person I know who ever got a speeding ticket absolutely chimped the fuck out about it as if they have a God given right to go 30 above the speed limit. Everyone thinks the rules shouldn't apply to them because they think they won't crash.

We dont and cities are only walkable because they were made before cars. People take the bus and electric bikes and only walk what they have to
Everyone in the countryside drives except kids who dont have a lisence and they take a schoolbus unless there isn't one and they have to bike

No, we don't use it because the cities are inhabited by a violent permanent underclass of brown schizos. Brazil has that too but you're too poor to be able to just take a car instead like Americans chose to.

I don't know about that. I live in a retirement community of a suburbs where our Liberals (right wing for non aussies) have a safe seat.
They do like the bicycle tracks and use it a lot though. And there's more being built here all the time.
They do hate the tram though as they don't want undesirables coming in to their area.
So it's a bit more nuanced.
