Who are these "some people". I don't think it's a majority. In fact most comments I see say the opposite.
Corporate propaganda is the "some people." Electric/self-driving cars are more profitable than fixing or expanding public transit.
Lemmy faces selection bias, of course most people here are more partial towards public transit
But the general public is more mixed, and the technosphere of silicon valley etc very much favours the former.
Lol at Lemmy being a representation of the public.
Are you assuming that i would only be talking about Lemmy comments?
It's what you hear a lot of on more mainstream media.
