You're most definitely American. It's not like that where I live.

I don't know how to drive a car. I have lived in Canada, India, and now The Netherlands.

Structures giving preference to personal automobiles are a civic failure, pure and simple.

I currently live in Auckland, New Zealand. Other cities that I have lived in for at least 1 year include Jakarta, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Seattle, Ft Lauderdale, Wellington, Berlin, London and Nairobi.

Your comment is an ad hominem, which is a logical fallacy, and you should be ashamed of using it. But in addition to that, it’s an ad hominem based on and assumption you made, and that assumption is incorrect. I would honestly recommend that you set your standards for yourself much higher than this.

To be fair, Auckland is a massively car-centric city and I would imagine it’s on a par with most US cities in that sense.
