What do you think it means?

How is it whataboutism? It’s literally happening. It’s reality.

Oh God not this again lmao

If I’ve missed your point, it’s because you haven’t made it very clear. It’s obvious I read your comment, my reply to it was almost entirely quotes from it.

Ok so I’m confused, were you just lying when you said oil companies are to blame?

We blame oil companies because, as you yourself said (see my previous comment where I quoted you), the oil companies are to blame.

Ok but

people insist on buying and driving cars

because of

oil industry lobbyists … making cities more car-centric

I hear you when you say

look how much of a stink suburbanites raise any time a city wants to get rid of some car lanes to put in a bike lane. Look at the fury when cities introduce congestion pricing

However, it’s important to understand that those people are absolute donuts, and their complaints should not be taken seriously or reflect on the rest of us.

Usually those middlemen don’t open up your mail, read what you wrote, then serve you ads based on that.

“High density” doesn’t just mean high rise apartments. Your example of a small, walkable village with combined/mixed-use space necessarily has high density housing. High density housing just means housing options that reduce sprawl and make public services easily accessible, usually by foot.

So we agree that sprawl and specialization are the problems, which is the important bit. I was being hyperbolic when I suggested we knock down all the suburbs, but I do think that suburbs are a terrible way to plan a community, and we should stop building them now and convert the ones we have into denser, more walkable communities.

High density housing comes in many forms, and all of them suck way less ass than suburbia.

Suburbs ditch all the convenience of a walkable, urban environment and replace that with all the transportation woes of living out in the boonies.

You know what, you’re right.

We should knock down the suburbs and use that land for sustainable energy generation, food production, or let it re-wild to support conservation efforts!

That sounds incredible

Yeah it’s honestly one of the most believable aspects of the Harley Quinn character

Do you also support gay people on your service by letting them organize and run a gay pride event on your service? Or is having to witness people celebrating gay pride too much for your delicate sensibilities?
