The only person making assumptions her is you who seems to believe im some wealthy city-dwelling socialite who doesn't work for a living. I ride my bike because its less stressful and cheaper than owning a car. I could hardly afford a car if I even wanted to.

You give all these reasons why you cant ride a bike and that's fine, those are your reasons. But you act like everyone else is in the exact same position as you and everyone just simply is not able to ride a bike even if they wanted to. That simply is not true, lots of people are in a position where they can bike but choose not to. Im tired of people acting like the reason they make these decisions is because they have no choice. Maybe thats true sometimes, but most of the times I think its just that people dont want to and we would all be better off if people were up front about it.

OP suggested we focus on bicycles instead of cars and a bunch of people come out saying "well bicycles dont work for me or anybody else" and I have been saying they can work for a lot of people if they just made the effort. This is apparently a privileged position? I didn't realize living in the most populated city in the country makes me a privileged elite but apparently that's all it takes.
