someone on a bike was struck by a car and killed just a few blocks away from me this very morning

It's is bike's fault. Not culture's fault.

I'm not sure if you just couldn't understand my statement and attempted sarcasm here or if this is a genuinely bad response that unironically blames the bike. I'm clearly pointing to culture as the root cause of this, particularly the predominance of neoliberal politics and settler-colonial relationships with the land, so I assume it's the former but that doesn't apply.
