Hi, !fuckcars mod here. I absolutely love my manual transmissions and unironically fully endorse this meme.

I think you might be surprised at just how much crossover there is between car enthusiasts and people who hate car dependency. Cars ought to be like horses: they should be available for enthusiasts to play with, but it should be wholly unnecessary and considered kinda ridiculous to use them as routine transportation, especially in cities.

Frankly, I would prefer it if all transmissions were manual, as it would help encourage people who see driving as a chore to use other transportation modes instead.

    Yeah I honestly love driving, but I love walking and biking too. Just because I'm a car enthusiast doesn't mean that I don't wish that my city was more walkable or had actual public transport.
