Believing that poverty and homelessness are moral failings allows people to continue engaging in the exploitative practices that cause things like poverty and homelessness.

Love how people are like "walkable cities take away your freedom" of course equating car ownership to freedom, meanwhile im like "my guy... no one said you couldnt keep your car. It just gives more people FREEDOM OF CHOICE in their mode of transportation."

Thank you so much for bringing me along on your urbanist adventure, Abi! I'm glad I could get you through the suburbs. I really like how you covered the 15 minute cities conspiracy theory. When this first appeared in Oxford, I researched it quite deeply, and I was really disappointed to find that it had literally nothing to do with urban planning; it was formed entirely out of climate change denialism from the start. In the end, I decided not to make a video about it, because my channel is not about climate change denialism, and I felt that covering the topic at all would just give legitimacy to the false idea that it has anything to do with city or transportation planning. It doesn't. Your philosophical analysis of the broader mechanisms behind these beliefs did the topic much more justice than I would be capable of doing anyway.

"You and I are not immune to phantasms" gave me chills, and made me go "oh yeah...I remember more than once realizing I was holding an irrational belief and needing unspool a lot of it... It wasn't fun". It'll likely happen again someday. The part that scares me is, how does one rescue someone from a phantasm, when they under no circumstance want to be rescued, and in fact think you're the one who's in one...? :s

I'm really glad you brought up the concept of first, second, and third spaces. For third spaces, socializing spaces, I was unconciously thinking all my life that I can't go out because "I don't have money to spend" and spent more of my time online as I grew up, and as an adult. I never really stopped to think how it's profoundly affected my social life, thinking that this was perfectly normal for someone who doesn't have extra money to spend, until my older god mother started telling me that it's "not the same". Which got me thinking "Why is it not the same? It feels like socializing to me." around the same time your video came out, and puts those comments she made into perspective. Now, that isn't to say that I'm suddenly against hanging out online. In fact, it really drove home for me how meaningful all my online friendships have been, since I never would have met 90% of the people I know if I wasn't here. I guess while I'm pretty happy with where I am now, it does reiterate that being pushed farther and farther away from public spaces by capitalistic forces has been going on all my life. Hopefully I can keep that in mind and not auto-cancel plans under certain circumstances like I always do without thinking it through first.

Growing up in rural America, I can confirm it's not the fantasy people imagine. Ambulance 45 minutes away, groceries half an hour drive. It's tough.

"If you want to drive a car, you need a photo licence from the government and a number-plate that can be traced back to you AND modern cars harvest a lot of personal data because they're filled with computers. You know what doesn't do that? FEET!" God, I don't know why, but I love that quote, so funny 😂

As someone who lives in the countryside, it is not easy. We have expensive housing with very little employment opportunities. Where I live has been flooded, so personal and public transport suffered. We don't have adequate GP surgeries or pharmacies. We don't even have our own police office, we get them from the city nearby and we have many who need drug or mental health assistance. Add to this we need our own fire station but we cannot have it due to financial circumstances. Our schools (3) are listed as deprived and many of us are on support in food and vouchers. This is your glorious countryside.

As someone born in a city whose parents moved to the British countryside for a better way of life, you are absolutely right about country life being romanticised as quaint and more down to earth. It's a scam, in short. But to elaborate, I have so many problems transitioning into adulthood out here that I just wouldn't have had where I was. Lack of public transport and everything being spread out means I can't access important services independently, I need to learn to drive and then maintain a car. But to do that I need a job, of which there are practically none in walking distance and far too many people my age trying to get them. I will have to move away, I cannot afford to live in this area. The 'affordable housing' they're building I have no hope of affording even when I am fully qualified and working. My social life is poor because I'm overly reliant on help from family to get me into towns. I work in a pub and a woman from London told me "it's so nice here, it feels like being on holiday" and I just smiled because otherwise I'd have had to explain all of this. Every time I see a new family move into the area because they want to have this idealised life they've pictured, I can't help but feel sorry for their children whose lives are about to get so much harder... Cities have their problems, but now that I've experienced both I know where I'd rather be.

I don't think I ever considered how priviledged I was to grow up in a 15 minute town. I walked and biked to primary and secondary school, walked to the supermarket, doctors, literally everything I could ever need. I was a 5 minute walk away from the train station (and bus station) which had a high speed rail to London and Birmingham. I could travel almost anywhere I wanted to without a car. Now living in America, the suburbs have hit me like a ten tonne truck, I've never felt so displaced.

Re: Rural misconceptions I remember reading a book called “The Fifth Risk” wherein the author dropped the line, “The more rural the American, the more dependent that American is on the federal government to maintain their way of life.”

As someone from Sydney, I should probably explain. When it rains the eels like to climb out of the harbour and crawl around all over the place looking for new creeks/ponds/flooded drainage ditches to inhabit. "My pantaloons are full of eels" is just our way of saying it's been raining a lot.

i honestly only clicked on this video because it featured Jason but i'm leaving a huge fan of philosophy tube. wasn't expecting it to take the 'turn' it did, but maybe it was a given, considering this is 'philosopy' tube. the sheer amount of information and knowledge I've acquired can't be overstated. I'll especially be thinking about that excerpt from "times square red" for a long time.
