Imagine if anthropologists visited a remote village with no grocery store and one restaurant that only served hamburgers and then concluded based on their observations that the villagers prefer hamburgers. That's essentially the discourse surrounding Americans and their relationship to cars.

And worth noting also that there's a subset of Americans (namely folks with small kids and/or mobility issues) who end up really alienated by the glibness of bike/public transit folks, who might be more open to car alternatives if their needs were treated with more seriousness by those advocates.

There are a lot of anti-car culture folks who put the cart before the horse and make broad generalizations about how simple it is to live without a car and just bike everywhere and, no.
As more serious advocates tend to acknowledge.

We need safer streets and more accessible/safe/consistent transit first, that's what positions us to move away from car culture and make that shift actually appealing.

Punishing student protestors only to get mad at them for not protesting anymore reminds me of how survivors are sued and harassed for coming forward only to then be blamed for not wanting to name and report their perpetrators anymore

If you punish people for doing the right thing, even make it impossible for them to do the right thing, many will stop trying.

why would anyone protest when they know the opposition party doesn't have their back? that's why the energy is now on Minnesota style open nonviolent resistance. there's no point in anything else! Even the Democrats in Minnesota are a bunch of fakes! (except Ilhan she's a real one)

John Fetterman Says Iran Girls’ School Strike Is Just a Leftist Craze
The Pennsylvania senator dismissed the demand for further investigation as “moot.”
Fuck Fetterman.
Sick of hypocrites talking about Islam mistreating women but US kills 150+ school girls & an investigation is "moot".
They cast all Muslims as extremists but our Christian government gets the benefit of the doubt despite decades of war crimes.

When you learn how hard it is to get people to come to three consecutive organizing meetings, you tend to spout off less about things.

And this country should never have billionaires.
They are billionaires = grossly taking from others.
They have our money and are using our money against us, because we also gave them power with our money. 🤦♂️

They know what they are doing is illegal.
It’s why they try to cover their tracks and why they talk about expecting to get pardoned.
The more we talk about future prosecutions as inevitable, the more it has a chance of deterring some crimes in the near term.
