It's unrelated because you've constructed a strawman who doesn't want expansion of public transit who you're thrashing when literally nobody has said that and literally everyone here has explicitly said they want expansion of public transit.

One needs to construct a strawman when the person you're arguing with has made no attempt to make any kind of actual argument, and just thrust a single word into a discussion.

Maybe construct an argument of your own to get defensive about before reacting so harshly.

I could and did forgive the original response for exactly the reason you said.

But in my follow up, I clarified my position and point, and that being ignored is why I'm stating it as being a strawman. I explicitly said I support public transportation.

Let me say it again: I explicitly said I support public transportation.

Let me say it a FIFTH TIME NOW: I SUPPORT PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.

How many times need it be said before buddy stops characterizing my position as being against public transportation?

Sincerely, how many times?
