I think I would rather take out my own kidneys with a spoon than read AAS comments that have anything to do with bicycle issues. I would be beyond discouraged! Just talking to the people I know - the ones who know I commute by bike - is discouraging enough.
Difficult subject to discuss. I commute to work on a "situp" recumbent 9 1/4 miles to work. Over my many years (1st commute in 1974 of this length) with long spans of no commuting + long spans of only commuting. I've never been struck. Close calls, yes.
Should I count my blessings and quit? Michael is good at helping us with "danger" per commuting mile from which we can compare to other modes of getting to work. I can't separate out the juggling of physical health, mental health, effects on society, financial impact, environmental impact so that I can make something other than a "feeling" decision.
Do we wait until "google" cars squeeze out congested driving of those who do use that mode of transportation? "Manual" drivers then having to show they are competant drivers? Then will the danger shrink enough so we don't have these conversations?
