Yes, they are also as painful as possible for every other browser. That’s the point.
It’s a meme, it absolutely is comparing both kinds of cars to other modes of transport.
Why? Cars are more inefficient than nearly every other mode of transport, whether we’re talking energy efficiency, space efficiency or cost efficiency. Only air travel is worse. But those modes make up for that in some circumstances by being fast, convenient and flexible.
Running is an underrated mode of transport. For some reason it’s socially acceptable to exert yourself hard while on a bike, but not running. When combined with public transport it can make all the difference to be able to make a tight transfer by sprinting for it.
delirious_owl is being pretty inflammatory but they make a good point.
All too often a supposed “bike lane” is just built to a worse standard than parallel car lanes. It will have a worse road surface, sharp bends, confusing and long routing, less priority at intersections and traffic lights. Car lanes are the default and bike lanes are squeezed in as an afterthought.
This needs to change, bike lanes should be built to the same or higher standard as roads(although typically bike lanes can be much narrower). Multi lane bike motorways need to be buldozed through neighborhoods. An easy way to do this is just take part or all of an existing road and make it bike only.
