If anything, it is the bicycle. No taxes, no license, no expensive vendor-locked repairs, all features perpetually unlocked, basically all-terrain, runs on breakfast and determination.
I agree, I commute by bike. But being able to buy a luxury car probably means you have a sizable disposable income and don’t have to worry about everyday expenses.
So how is the expensive, needs specific maintenance at regularly scheduled intervals with specialised tools, and parts you can only get from one manufacturer financial freedom?
And why do you associate the car with freedom? Because marketing has made you associate cars with freedom. Its terrifying the amount of thoughts that are put in people’s head by advertising. Lots of those in marketing have psychology degrees.
I guess I wasn’t clear. A car in general is not freedom. But being able to afford a luxury vehicle like a Lamborghini probably means you have enough money to not worry about everyday expenses. That is something a lot of people want.
If that car was a old beat up converted out semi-liveable van then yes, actually. All an expensive luxury car is a symbol of is huge maintenance cost and a tiny dick
People stuck in traffic for 2 hours everyday: “So much freedom!”
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against someone having nice things; but the fact that this guy made half of his identity having said things (and the other half being a sadistic, misogynistic monster) makes mocking him much funnier.
The car is a symbol of financial freedom, something I think a lot of people aspire to.

Financial Freedom were the friends we made along the way

You just described the opposite of financial freedom though?

Personally, I hate cars. I bike as much as I can.
