yeah, working classes tend to be happy with car culture. I've heard a ton of discussions about mass transit from my college-educated, white-collar job friends and not a single damn peep from anybody from my old working class life

Hm, interesting. I suppose I can agree that 'upper' probably talks about or thinks about mass transit more, but to me lower class is who actually uses mass transit. Maybe regional differences at play.

that's bc you grew up in a rural area, that's where working class people you know are from. You moved to the cities as a high-end escort and met upper-class city people. Working class city people are all about public transport

I moved to the cities well before I was a high end escort, why do ppl keep telling me confidently about my life instead of asking me if I think this is a good theory?

Youre talking about mass transit supporters. In the current regime, almost no one either class is a user
