You realize car-dependent cities require you to be licensed and registered to be able to access groceries, no? In a walkable neighborhood, you can walk. For free. No license. No big government. No registration. Car dependence is the surveillance state.

Did you drive to the grocery store?
You have to drive to get groceries. I don’t. You need a license, registration, and insurance to drive. As a pedestrian, I don’t.
I have more freedom than you.
Then be against surveillance in general… Its also a big problem. Not only a problem of 15 Minute cities. Cameras can also track your car quite easliy. Through the whole city.
All I need is less than 10 minutes away and I rarely need to go further for anything. And I love it. Not car dependend and no surveillance here.
