if you don't wanna read through this garbage, understandably, the obvious problem according to the autor who has never met another republican who is interested in safter streets is that the darn democracts keep using woke words and not like that this idiot and his ilk have a conception of street planning that is entirely solipsistic

Not sure how much of this is AI hallucinations and how much Republican hallucination but what republican bike lanes bills that the opposition just talks past is she talking about?

I think the point is all bike bills would be bipartisan but they're only not because they don't plaster the word freedom 800 times over it so it's their fault and also surely, surely, if they did the autor could reconcile her cognitive dissonance about still rooting for the team that killed her dad

It's not like conservatives have who knows how many spiels shitting on the idea of transit in any form but that of the car ('15 minute cities are woke', 'buses are shitty and for the poors', 'subways are where you get mugged', etc)

Also

I’m a Republican, and in nine months of advocating for safer streets, I have yet to meet another one.

Do we think this one is going to eventually have an epiphany or no?

Maybe more republican dads need to be run over?

Probably legislation to mine bike lanes to stick it to the libs.

The lane is open!
