The problem with public transit isn't the transit, it's the public.

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It is not even that, it is a tiny minority of the public. In fact, come to think of it, that is the problem with a lot of systems that would otherwise work great, a tiny minority of exploitative rich people, a tiny minority of spammers, a tiny minority of people who vandalize public spaces,...

We're all in that tiny minority at least sometimes. And that's why I avoid people. Not just for me, but also for them.

It's also sometimes transit, but that's mostly because the public does not fund and prioritize transit as they should.
