Spoken like someone who's long since stopped worrying about having to commute without mass transit available.
If mass transit is available and reasonable then yeah, go off. But otherwise please stop blaming the victims of Capitalism.
Move somewhere you have mass transit wtf
Sure, I'll sell my nice house in the countryside and use the money to buy something not even half the size in an urban centre so I can have the privilege of being able to use a bus. No thanks.
You are the problem.
Let's all abandon the countryside and move to the city rather than improving transport links for rural communities then.
IDGAF about how farmer Jones is going to get to his farm at 5am every day to feed the cows.
idgaf about people who spend their days causing climate change, yes. That includes both people who dig up carbon and cow "farmers".
Cow farming was just one example of work that can only really be done in rural locations. Presumably you're not against the farming of vegetables?
