    dude I can see it already.

    Auto lobby shifts long-term from overdrive (their standard) to hyperdrive

    Stupid comparisons with “CoMmUnIsT cHiNa”

    Trashy hot-take clickbait with interior shots of homeless people on light rail

    “Go where you want not where the train tells you to”

    Not that this specific announcement is the reason for any of that though. Just another sticking point to glom onto

      TBH I think the best case scenario is auto manufacturers get into the train business. Sure it’d take a while but it makes sense from a mechanical and supply chain perspective.

      Not holding my breath on that one though…
