I live in Australia where they were banned. There were literally neo Nazis publicly being Nazis trying to make others feel unwelcome and feel like they were in danger. Nazi symbols have been banned in Germany for ages (which should tell you something). If you want to make up some weird conspiracy theory like they're playing 4d chess, good for you. People like me also got sick of reporting Nazi shit to councils after they took pt to get home and acted like hateful dickheads. I guess you want to keep burning crosses and the kkk legal too eh? Guys like me get sick of removing Nazi stickers though

The location where I live has nothing to do with cars. Work is located in a more expensive place to live. And even if I move, should I tell my family I can't see them anymore because they don't live close enough to me?

Again, I do hiking (I actually operate a hiking group). You've skipped that comment because your argument doesn't sound great when you start telling people they can't go outdoors anymore.

The problem with cars isn't that they exist. It's that too many clowns are buying big cars they don't need, and they need to be designed to be more repairable/modular. More public transport is definitely needed though, and more density of population.. But some people like me (even ignoring work) will continue to need a vehicle to get around. I also think emergency services will be more efficient with a car eh

Battery technology will rapidly catch up. The first big changes have already just come (sodium ion) which is already a step forward. If lithium air happens, it will be a game changer

Also, I received an award for graduating top 5 people in state in one of my high school subjects.. So honestly, I suspect I'm not a total idiot like you claim.
