Fuck Cars
This community exists as a sister community/copycat community to the r/fuckcars subreddit.
This community exists for the following reasons:
- to raise awareness around the dangers, inefficiencies and injustice that can come from car dependence.
- to allow a place to discuss and promote more healthy transport methods and ways of living.
You can find the Matrix chat room for this community here.
Rules
-
Be nice to each other. Being aggressive or inflammatory towards other users will get you banned. Name calling or obvious trolling falls under that. Hate cars, hate the system, but not people. While some drivers definitely deserve some hate, most of them didn't choose car-centric life out of free will.
-
No bigotry or hate. Racism, transphobia, misogyny, ableism, homophobia, chauvinism, fat-shaming, body-shaming, stigmatization of people experiencing homeless or substance users, etc. are not tolerated. Don't use slurs. You can laugh at someone's fragile masculinity without associating it with their body. The correlation between car-culture and body weight is not an excuse for fat-shaming.
-
Stay on-topic. Submissions should be on-topic to the externalities of car culture in urban development and communities globally. Posting about alternatives to cars and car culture is fine. Don't post literal car fucking.
-
No traffic violence. Do not post depictions of traffic violence. NSFW or NSFL posts are not allowed. Gawking at crashes is not allowed. Be respectful to people who are a victim of traffic violence or otherwise traumatized by it. News articles about crashes and statistics about traffic violence are allowed. Glorifying traffic violence will get you banned.
-
No reposts. Before sharing, check if your post isn't a repost. Reposts that add something new are fine. Reposts that are sharing content from somewhere else are fine too.
-
No misinformation. Masks and vaccines save lives during a pandemic, climate change is real and anthropogenic - and denial of these and other established facts will get you banned. False or highly speculative titles will get your post deleted.
-
No harassment. Posts that (may) cause harassment, dogpiling or brigading, intentionally or not, will be removed. Please do not post screenshots containing uncensored usernames. Actual harassment, dogpiling or brigading is a bannable offence.
Please report posts and comments that violate our rules.

As someone that has eaten my lunch in my car at a park…it is way more enjoyable than Walmart. Sometimes just that little amount of respite is all people can afford or have time to enjoy.
IDK who you're talking about "they." Plenty of folks here drive motor vehicles. This community is a place to share and discuss alternatives to using cars as the only means of transportation. Sometimes we get cheeky and post memes about outrageous features of "car culture," but the fact of the matter is we're focused on other ways of getting around.
Then why did you join if not to jerk furiously as you suck on your active tailpipe? It's going to bring you closer to your car just like you want. Why not join autosexual instead? Why not join communities you agree with?
What are you even on about? You need a doctor.
Wanting equitable transportation options is odd but dedicating your life to stalking any community that wants to discuss that then treating anybody without 6 cars in the driveway as a Saturday morning cartoon villain isn't?
You literally have mental health problems, please seek help.
Here they are on display, with their labels of hatred. Stop spreading hate. Also that was unnecessarily sexual imagery to add to your hate-labels, which makes you sound gross to sane people.
How cute you are thinking anyone cares what you think. "my hate is justified because you matched my energy"
Eat a dick and go follow !Ijerktomyengine where you belong.
Your mom eats canned horse meat, and you smell like ham. Haha!
Ironically this is the most divisive, us vs. them comment in this thread. Otherwise it’s all polite discussion, even among people who disagree. You are the one bringing the negativity and hate to the community.
