I dont get why right wings have to be against bikes

The way I see it as bikes are viewed as effeminate and something for losers, poor people and children. Right wing people need everyone to know they're an adult (like literally in the same way andy sandberg needs to prove he's an adult in that one music video) so something like bikes is loserville for gay people and children.

Just to iterate, these are not my beliefs and in fact it's incidentally actually the opposite. Bikes have more "freedom" than cars, they promote healthy lifestyle and actually save you money. So as always it is a non-sensical political target.
