Then get a job closer to where you live. And I didn't say any such thing. I've repeatedly told you there are options to a car. The only feasible one for you appears to be the bus. That is if you intend on doing your share to save the planet. If you aren't willing to give up your car to ride the bus then why are you telling everyone their cars are evil? There's no way they'll build enough train lines to replace cars. Even in Europe most people still use cars or scooters. The public transportation is good, yes, but not as freeing as a car. That's what people want, the freedom to move about in a timely manner.
the public transport in eu is better than a car. you proposed a scooter which was a 2 hour trip, vs high speed train which was 1 hour.

I told you there are many ways to get around. I also mentioned walking. Do you think I was talking about walking that kind of distance to work? You would use a scooter for local trips. Or use a bike, an ebike, or walk. For a long commute use the bus. Do I really have to explain this to you? And if you want to use your car instead great. Just don't tell everyone else they're evil for using cars. That what they're doing is satanic. Extremely hypocritical on your part.

cars are satanic and slower than public transit in the case of spain.

And yet you'd rather do something satanic than go sit on a bus for awhile. Hope you aren't driving your car anywhere but straight to work and back. The fate of the planet is in your hands.
you are against expanding public transit and your solutions to it are proven to be inferior

I am not against expanding public transportation. I'm against throwing money down a hole to build things that will be underused. That would only be used by most if forced to. Look at NYC. With the number of people in such a small area it only makes sense to have mass public transportation. Do what makes sense.

And cars have been proven to be inferior? OK, I'll trudge three blocks to wait 10 minutes in the cold to catch a bus that'll connect with another bus in a central depot then ride that bus to a point that's four blocks from my destination and trudge there in the weather. Or I can get into my inferior car and quickly drive to my destination. If it's good weather I can ride a scooter. Or an ebike. Unless you have a city like NYC or Chicago you aren't going to have subways or elevated trains.

you said you were against expanding public transit and then you said walking, e bikes etc, and gas scooters are as good

and then i posted something from spain a town which is a 2 hour car ride away, but 1 hour by public transit.
