What are your objective facts? I.e. numbers that can be easily checked. If your reality is so real, you should be able to find them!

Cars provide faster commutes than transit. Always have, always will, except for very narrow exceptions.

Cars provide far more access to people, making them more likely to succeed: https://www.nature.com/articles/s42949-021-00020-2

Heck, EVs even have a smaller carbon footprint than most transit! See: https://ourworldindata.org/travel-carbon-footprint
