Your political and social agenda (or anyone else's) is no more a car free living topic than if some other posters decide to constantly berate the readers of this list with their own political and social agendas.

Perhaps a nice "discussion" about the 2nd Amendment, abortion, or nature vs nurture is in order to decide who really is interested in living car free, eh?
There's our favorite forum nanny telling us what is and isn't appropriate for us to discuss, and again using false analogies. People may choose to be car free for environmental or political reasons, or for social or fitness or economical reasons, or purely for enjoyment, and if people on the car free forum want to discuss those reasons why shouldn't they? They're a lot more relevant to the forum than abortion or the constitution. Maybe you should reprimand the people like Machka or lakhotason who say they are car free for pleasure. After all the motivation for being car free is apparently verboten for discussion under your forum rules.
