“Haha fuck all those idiots who use the means of travel that has been foisted on them”

I live somewhere where the infrastructure is completely built around the assumption of having a car. Everything is miles and miles apart, separated by nothing but highways and overpasses dotted with shrines to those who failed to cross them in time. I cannot overstate how much if you don’t have a car here, you are just stranded meat. Your options are to drive, uber or take the sometimes-running bus.

Now, are there opsec problems inherent to all these approaches? Yes, but you start from what you have and build up, you don’t start at imaginary perfection and build down. What’s your realistic alternative for all these people? Pull a paramotor out of their assholes? You don’t care about opsec, you’re just looking for an excuse to justify and rationalize the decisions of your overlords in a way that lets you feel snidely superior to the people who are actually out there taking risks and accomplishing things.
