The average car or van in England is driven just 4% of the time

By that logic, the WEF also supports eliminating private ownership of toilets, which are similarly "barely used". Toasters? No way you could justify private ownership of a toaster. Barbecue grill? Forget about it. Come to think of it, rely upon a central food distribution service to allocate nutritious insect protein to you. You'll be happier and the world will be .02 degrees cooler for it.

To: Tell It Right

“10 years from now, the people who today say to drive only EV’s will be the same people who’ll say EV’s should be banned.”

When has any measure ever been enough? Climate, abortion, gun control, taxes, there is never an acceptable compromise. They are always just stepping stones to something much more radical. I don’t think they even know what it is.

Someone has to own them. Who gets to decide? Once car ownership is deemed officially wasteful, look for homes to be next, in favor of downtown/inner city high-rise rat mazes. And the public trans everyone is forced to use will always avoid going anywhere near the country estates inhabited by our masters.

Synopsis:

The World Inside
by Robert Silverberg

Earth 2381. Welcome to Urban Monad 116. A lofty spire reaching nearly two miles into the sky, the one thousand stories of this building are home to over eight hundred thousand people living in peace and harmony. In the year 2381, nearly all of Earth’s 75 billion live in the hundreds of monolithic structures scattered across the globe, with the exception of the small agricultural communes that supply the Urbmons with food. Life in Urbmon 116 is highly regulated, life is cherished, and the culture of procreation is seen as the highest pinnacle of god’s plan. Conflict is abhorred, and any who disturb the peace face harsh punishment, to risk being labeled a flippo, for whom there is only one punishment, being sent “down the chute” to be recycled as fertilizer. But inside their glorious world are a few who dare to doubt and dream:
Aurea Holston, a beautiful young bride who fears leaving the only world she’s ever known.
Jason Quevedo, a historian, searches records of the twentieth century hoping to find the root of his discontent with the perfection of Urbmon life.
Siegmund Kluver, a young and ambitious administrator, strives to reach the top levels of the Urbmon?s government and discovers the civilization’s dark truths.
Michael Statler, a computer engineer, harbors a forbidden desire. He dreams of leaving the building, of walking in the open air and visiting the far-off sea. This is a dream he must keep secret. If anyone were to find out, he’d face the worst punishment imaginable.
The World Inside is a fascinating exploration of society and what makes us human, told by a master of speculative fiction.

Reminds me of this from the BOOK Doctor Zhivago...

Yurii’s talk with Pogorevshikh on the train to Moscow...
Part 2, chapter 5: 16
Imperturbable as an oracle, he prophesied disastrous
upheavals in the near future. Yurii Andreievich inwardly agreed
that this was not unlikely, but the calm, authoritative tone in
which this unpleasant boy was making his forecasts angered
him.

“Just a moment,” he said hesitantly. “True, all this may happen.
But it seems to me that with all that’s going on — the chaos, the
disintegration, the pressure from the enemy — this is not the
moment to start dangerous experiments. The country must be
allowed to recover from one upheaval before plunging into
another. We must wait till at least relative peace and order are
restored.”

“That’s naive,” said Pogorevshikh. “What you call disorder is
just as normal a state of things as the order you’re so keen
about. All this destruction — it’s a natural and preliminary stage
of a broad creative plan. Society has not yet disintegrated
sufficiently. It must fall to pieces completely then a genuinely
revolutionary government will put the pieces together and build
on completely new foundations.”

The WEF think they are our leaders? Well, in that case they can act like it. They can get rid of their security people and start riding the NY and Chicago subways.

And they can also eat bugs...

Lur erstwhile “betters” won’t even be driving their own limos. Or pumping their ownngas. Or standing in a grocery store checkout line. Where they should be is a landfill.

The last paragraph bears repeating:

“That’s naive,” said Pogorevshikh. “What you call disorder is just as normal a state of things as the order you’re so keen about. All this destruction — it’s a natural and preliminary stage of a broad creative plan. Society has not yet disintegrated sufficiently. It must fall to pieces completely then a genuinely revolutionary government will put the pieces together and build on completely new foundations.”

Notable exceptions to this demand is for WEF, Deep State, Big Bankers, Hi Tec, Hollywood and other elite beings to not be humbled with public transportation.

No. A vehicle will come for you if your leftist masters allow it, and take you where you want to go ... eventually ... unless your leftist masters want you to go somewhere else instead.

I stand corrected. But you forgot that you need a sufficiently high enough ESG score to even have the app on your phone!

If my ESG score isn’t high enough, do I even have a phone?

“I call for an end to Klaus Schwab’s pulse.”

I can’t really with this point of view.
