Not Just Bikes fangirls might seethe at the sight of SUVs on French, Spanish or Dutch streets, but they don't really matter outside their echo chambers. Some governments - be it mayors, national leaders or the fascists in Brussels - are trying to ban them though it won't be all that successful, especially because people have grown absolutely sick and tired of shitty North American liberalism which had been exported around the planet through capitalism and neoliberalism. Europeans want a unified and functioning Europe, but they don't want to be told what they can think, say or do. That includes driving.
Blessings of strength and courage for the European people in their fight against American hegemony and it's notable cultural exports: small cars, public transport, pedestrianization, and low car or car free cities.
Look, I get the desire to push against the unbending dogma of progressive zealots. I don't identify with that, or really any ideology (therein being a reason why I can't really identify with progressivism). But every single post you make solidifies their view that straying from their righteous path is for uninformed, illogical liars and idiots. It's counterproductive. Unlike others who have blocked you for offending them, I might end up doing it to save having to erase the last two minutes of nonsense I just read from my brain every time you post.
