I doubt that Wendigoon is using a $10k+ business printer.

Waiting patiently for that one midwit to chime in with “bu-but Christianity has killed 100 billion more people!!”

Funny you say that, I actually just noticed that today. I tried launching it and it refused to let me use it until I updated. It was super annoying.

Yeah same here. I doubt that this platform will ever see mainstream adoption if the first thing that people are greeted by are criclejerky posts bashing capitalism and cars. It’s a shame, because I’ve been enjoying the platform a lot - just not the constant slew of ideas being pushed by it’s users.

Alright wow you made that comment much longer and more thought out since I replied - appreciated. I still doubt that we will ever achieve that, but I do understand more about why people are up in arms about it. I also still believe that working to achieve that cause would likely fuck over a lot of people that live in cities already, but you are right that that is already happening anyways. Thank you for the reply.

Yeah what Texas is doing sounds pretty horrible, I’m not disagreeing with that. You mention a couple of steps that could be taken to partially remedy the problem and begin correcting the course, but from what I’ve seen, the anti-car movement calls for entirely walkable cities, and what you’ve stated is not enough to achieve that.

The city that I’m living in is probably one of the most extreme examples of urban sprawl that I know of. Making my city walkable and not dependent on cars would be impossible without consolidating the population to a much smaller area.
