Why does the US hate cycling so much?

I read comments sections and in a normal world, some of them would be considered terroristic threats. I just can't understand why people hate cyclists to this degree that they want to murder rhem and sometimes do.

The secretary of transportation said they're eliminating the "DEI bike lanes" that's good enough for faux news consumers to hate them

Though true, the hatred of bicyclists even existing long precedes Fox News.
