"Cars, once America’s most important industrial commodity, are now, for so many, a vehicle of debt-driven extraction. They are also the setting of the most common interaction between citizens and police—one that plays out on streets and highways more than 20 million times annually, often as a humiliating ritual of domination and submission."

US Society and norms can accurately be called ‘Brutalianism.’ In every facet of life its citizens are confronted by violence, economic crime by corporations that make everything, banks that play with their money to make money, corrupt officials, poisoned environment, sickness, every ill known!
@TheWarOnCars Amusing, talk about car culture driving people into danger? How about this it is not the cars, it is the assholes driving them, you know just like guns don't kill, people do argument works for guns?
Yep freedom. Freedom to get government permission to operate a car registered with the government with government regulated emissions and safety standards that has government mandated insurance on government roads that are heavily monitored by government agents with guns that kill, kidnap, and imprison people often with little consequence.
I swear the US has the worst case of Stockholm syndrome in history with these things.
