Do you like think ICE is public transportation or something?

    In some countries it is. Everywhere else refers to internal combustion engines, which also would complicate getting around if abolished. On the other hand, nobody is proposing a ban on outboard motors for cars so there might be a market for those, I suppose.

    Sure, Intercity Express.

    But apprently we are talking about US inmigration politics instead, as l got from another comment already...

    l already blocked all communities that are explicitely dealing with domestic US-only stuff.

    There are lots of those, so if I stumble upon US-defaulting posts in the remaining general communities, l sometimes can't stop myself bringing some international perspective into them... 🤷‍♂️

    See, I thought you meant ICE as in Internal Combustion Engine which made your comment about air quality make sense.

    We should also try to abalish those...

    Funnily I didn't know of the ICE engine abbreviation until recently.
    Let to some confusion reading an "ICE cars cannot be transported on Rhine" post.
    First thought of the railway cars and after reading the article was convinced it was talking about cars for the immigration guys...
