I think it helps to have a nuanced opinion and make sure we don't spiral into an echo chamber. For my example, I've found that lefties are able to identify a lot of the right problems, it's just that they think gay space communism is the solution to it.
For instance, I completely agree that North American cities are really stupidly designed. The car-centric nature of them means you're stranded if your vehicle breaks down. The fact that you have to go into debt to buy this big stupid box to navigate your own city is ridiculous in the first place.
But when it comes to their solutions for this they can't separate their stupid idpol nonsense from it. My local city government keeps talking about "equitable solutions" to traffic and pedestrian fatalities. Typical "world ending, women most affected" type stuff.
Plus they keep droning on about high density housing which absolutely no one wants to live in. in their utopia we'd all live in depressing Soviet-style block apartments.
What's funny is that this was all a slippery slope from "seatbelt notifications."
Because once you have one "for your safety" program on by default in your car, then they will just keep putting more and more in until you have dozens of electronic noises constantly pulling the wheel in your hand, hitting the brake, and yelling at you.
Another big blame is the Euro NCAP deducting points from crash safety if such "features" don't come standard. The thing is though, despite all this technology being added the past 20 years, national crash safety rates have barely improved at all.
Literally my SAAB from 2002 has side curtain airbags etc.
I think the biggest improvement for crash safety that can be made is driver education, and getting rid of the light truck tax loophole and reduce taxes on normal passenger cars.
