    Bikes are made from metal that is mined from the ground and the tires are rubber that is produced from potrolium. All of that is bad for the environment. Almost all shoes are also made from rubber, and leather that comes from cows that produce methane thats bad for the environment, so you better be walking everywhere either barefoot or in handmade wooden clogs.

    If you really wanna play by those rules you are JUST as bad as the guy you replied to

      I am fully aware of the end of this line of thoughts, and it is not a good end. And I decided for myself that you have to artificially draw the line at some point.

      My line is between the difference of a two tonne car with a huge fucking battery and a bicycle. Where is yours?

        There need be no lines, dumbass. Just be accurate in your comparisons, rather than saying everything on THIS side of the line is bad and everything on THAT side of the line is good

          Dumbass? Do you want to amplify your point by insulting a stranger on the internet? Your arguments and personality must be awesome.

            Obviously. But I guess I have to explain that to you because, well, you know.

                Mainly to point out how dumb your thought process is. I have little hope that you will actually listen, but I do hope that any 3rd parties observing will see the logical inconsistencies and see why viewing things as a spectrum of bad to good is a much better way than viewing things as exclusively bad or good.
