Can someone explain where this recent flurry (last 2 years or so) of anti-car evangelism has come from?

I can't help but feel that many people who now work remote and therefore don't need to commute suddenly are all for moving to mass transportation...that other people will use to get to work.

It’s part degrowth mindset, part climate doomerism, part immaturity, and part naïveté due to the urban-living bias in the left Twitter verse and reddit. For the last one it’s a whole lot of people who dominate the conversation live in places where public transportation is a lot more feasible than the other 80% of the US where it’s completely and utterly unworkable.
