Have you heard of this thing called a bicycle? It's crazy new. You can get a basket or electric engine, totally crazy, ikr? It's okay, I don't blame you for not Knowing, excuse the sarcasm. Being raised in the us or Canada, you don't see any realistic alternative to owning cars. All of the above can be compensated by owning a bike.
have you heard of this thing called. a motor vehicle. why are you diving back in time? I rode a bike all through my kid and teen years. of course...i have total respect for a bicycle. more than you. it is the one Mechanical device we humans have that is capable of putting out more energy than what you give into it. think about that. that is fucking incredible. but when i turned 15. i looked at the world and said "wow. globalization is happening fast, i need to be mobile to eat and stay relevant" ...so i got a car, stayed mobile and im alive today because i CAN commute.
Response to your edit: there is data and evidence to back up our hate to cars.
This one: I don't know what you are saying...
there is evidence and data to back up the enormous benefits a motor vehicle brings. this modern day luddite movement is crap. yes cars bring danger....its a piece of moving heavy metal, no duh. respect the car and it'll respect you. trash and hate it if you must, enjoy walking. :)
Have you considered moving to a country that does sell milk? I can visit 3 capitals within 6 hours of public transport roundtrip. Though one can legally buy milk halfway to the tram station, so that'd be 5 min walking roundtrip.
Need: simple milk and eggs. Suggestion: have you tried moving?
...bruh 💀
I have my suspicions they're from a country that routinely denies people access to more than just milk.
