I love Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, but this is some serious bullshit.

You won the election. It's over. The pro-car asshole was defeated.

Now it's time to be BOLD. Democracy is great, but we can't keep having debates and community inputs. Do these angry residents have actual evidence that their ideas will improve the city? No.

The masses are not always right. Real leadership means you need to accept to be temporarly unpopular when you know you are right.

I don't like Billionaires, but Mike Bloomberg was a great New York City mayor precisely because he didn't give a shit about being popular as long as the data was on his side. He banned smoking in bars and restaurants, mandated calorie counts on chain restaurant menus, pedestrianized much of Times Square, created the Citi Bike Program, invested in bike lanes. People kept whining. He just ignored them.

This is why we need open source social media. You can't trust Big Tech.
