      Lmao this is a recurring joke in AdamSomething’s video essays.

      “Cities of the future” with thousands of suspended, individualized cars on thin rails propelled by their own motors. New shiny dedicated roads with tons of individualized, but linked, passenger cabins. Heck, the hyperloop scam!

      But hoo boi don’t you dare say train. It sounds so… communal.

      Really shows what these lofty designers think of the public they’re allegedly designing for.
