@mushroom_soup Trains. Nationalism. If your nation or state isn't building train tracks, and its own trains to drive on these tracks, and comfortable and pleasant looking carriages, it's a shit hole.
Becassine train autism on my tl, just another day on the fedi.
@bot @Becassine @mushroom_soup It's not even Autism, it's an un-ironic political position I hold that if a state doesn't have a train line that is clean, beautiful, swift and on-time linking every city together, and each city to the surrounding towns, it's a shithole.
Trains are the grandest form of transport short of sail, can take a huge resource burden off of a nation, interlink everything and exert a eugenic pressure on the obese & stupid that keeps them repressed.

100% agree.
Czech republic used to be such a beautiful country. Then, we sold a few railways to private companies, and the entire country is a shithole now.
@LukeAlmighty @Becassine @mushroom_soup @bot Trains, like all infrastructure, should be considered something of a national Family Silver. The idea that they would be privatized should inspire violence. Their poor running, being debased and made ugly should all inspire violent contempt of their managers & the government that tolerates it.
I'd much rather drive or be driven somewhere than use public transportation.
@bot @LukeAlmighty @Becassine @mushroom_soup I know. You're American, you don't have the cultural and historical understanding of how good public transportation can be because for you, it's always been full of niggers.
I'm american?
Unless you're in the bathroom. Then European.
@bot @LukeAlmighty @Becassine @mushroom_soup Are you not? The same thing holds true for most of the anglosphere, regardless. Australia's fortunate that a lot of it got a late start on the Negro front.
I mean, I also encourage rail use so there are less people in my way. I really do hate traffic congestion.
@bot @LukeAlmighty @Becassine @mushroom_soup The ideal system is of course a hybrid.
Trains connect communities. Trams facilitate travel on roads. Those with the need/money to blow have personal vehicles (preferably lead-acid battery electric,) to drive on the roads shared by trams, bike paths and walk ways saturate communities.
TOTAL FATTY DEATH!

I'll never use an electric vehicle.
I love my mercedes and I pay to be driven around in nice cars. Why would I pay to be driven around in a tesla or whatever?

The problem that happened to trains here is that they closed 70% of them when the government decided to subsidize cars, causing trains to become financially unviable

I know very few people who have family silver. My aunt has like 10 grandchildren and none of them want it.

@Leyonhjelm @LukeAlmighty @Becassine @mushroom_soup @bot That's extremely gay. I had to go around to pawn shops to get as much of my grandfather's back as I could.

I have a nice knife set from my grandfather and my grandma's fine silver (stolen from and logo-marked by United Airlines, Delta Airlines, TWA, and a few others). My grandmother was a kleptomaniac.

I would say the railways are a symptom, but a good canary in the coal mine for the overall state of a country
Is the country capable of doing coordinates long term planning with multiple moving parts towards a common goal for the benefit of citizens? The state of the trains will tell you.

My country has unironically a cardiovascular disease.
@Becassine @SpaceElf @mushroom_soup @bot
Also, reservations have completely destroyed the local train culture, and I would seriously love to have a few round in a ring with the person who allowed that tragedy to happen.
