Yes, for many it cannot. For many job shopping is a luxury.
What they were implying with their statement was that your life was made to be this way by the decisions of dead capitalists who caused infrastructure and the way we live our lives to be this way so that they could make money
Housing laws caused suburban sprawl which has been worsened, at least in the US, by utterly foolish parking minimum laws. Thats why you have a commute like this, because cars were forced on us instead of trains, biking, and walking.
Ew hexbear.
LOL
I'm thinking societal changes not individualist ones. Think bigger, who the fuck enjoys a long commute?
Original comment I replied to said "save the planet, ride a bicycle" and my reply related to that.
I'd love a combination teleporter/blowjob machine but for now a shorter commute would be a treat
This is achievable though is my point
For many, job shopping is a luxury, and moving is a very high cost.
You're expressing a privileged opinion.
That's ok, we all have them, but what seems logical and obvious to some, is a simple impossibility to others.
Why are you so into solving this on an individualist basis, I made it pretty clear I'm talking societal changes here
Because individuals buy and use cars, and the original comment I replied to implored commuters not to use evs and adopt a public transit /bike only lifestyle.
My comment discussed the pressures of life on the individual.
Yeah if you really want to interpret it that way, it's just a slogan man
