So, for the past few weeks, Iβve been trying to find podcasts that are #anticapitalism, #prounion, #socialist, #Anticar, #leftist, #activist, #historical, etc. They donβt necessarily have to be about contemporary politics but explore related topics.
(Things along the lines of The Audit, The War on Cars, Srsly Wrong, Citations Needed, Movies vs Capitalism, etc.)
But Iβm noticing a LOT of cis-men?! (Only two of the above podcasts have *A* female-identifying cohost).

The only good car is a dead car.
All Cars Are Burnable #ACAB
Yes, the fire caused some pollution but not nearly as much as those cars being driven for 300,000km before ending up in the same scrapyard would have.
We are running out of time. We need to get serious to slow down or stop the climate crisis.
I know anti-car sentiment was not the motivation for this bit of fun but the results are anti-car and I love it.

When one is an alcoholic, they don't drink alcohol, the alcohol drinks them. The same is true of car dependence.
You aren't driving the car, the car is driving you.
The car is forcing you to work more and enjoy life less.
Get rid of it!
You can rent a van if you really need it for moving something heavy.

@lowqualityfacts Oh so it's not just because I follow #urbanism that I see so much #anticar content! That's a good sign I think

It's amazing seeing the backlash against SUVs in Europe. People are so fed up with the space they take and the pollution they produce that activists regularly deflate SUV tires, and now some cities are considering taxing vehicles based on weight and emissions.
The anti-SUV uprising is coming πͺ

I am #ProTransit and #AntiCar in general but today is a prime example of why I hate actually using #PublicTransit. I have a 4 mile trip to an appointment in the same city. It's cold, rainy, windy, it's going to snow. It will take 2 buses + a half mile walk. About 45 min total. None of the stops have shelter or benches. Almost no one wears masks on board.
WHY would anyone take transit if they have another choice? If you want to ban cars you have to make transit better FIRST.
FYI both my house and the office are on prominent, busy roads near major intersections.
I don't own a car so I'm taking an Uber.

A difference between my #Fediverse and #Twitter experiences:
Over there folks are in an excited conversation about #ElectricCars.
On the π I follow things like #transit, #AntiCar #Urbanism #walkable and #WalkableStreets: Fast trains and subways and roads made for bikes.
The car and airplane lobbyists really did the US dirty, in many places, electric car is the best option.
I'm sure these threads are in response to the #Greta thing, but it's interesting to see the difference on platforms.

Over there folks are in an excited conversation about #ElectricCars. They seem thrilled at the prospect of spending all the money on these small people movers.

The War On Cars Episode 30
The Automotive Police State
Explores how the 4th Amendment was gutted by the rise of the automobile. It's the first episode of The War On Cars I ever listened to.

@AaronDodd I don't want to lower the driving age; I want those dirty, loud, dangerous machines banned from the roads. The new driving age should be 127 years old. #anticar #fuckcars #notjustbikes #thewaroncars

Alright let's get this ball rolling.
As everyone is no doubt aware, the end of this week is #BlackFriday. What people are not so aware of is the ever decreasing need for excessive amounts of parking spaces available, paved specifically for this day.
This Friday, when you're out either shopping or just passing by, take note at how full parking lots really are.
Tag #BlackFridayParking with photos, spread the word that parking minimums are a thing of the past!

North America has a fundamental problem with the way we look at city development that needs to be addressed.

Suburban sprawl not only acts as social class segregation, it also happens to be financially unsustainable for the city. Infinite growth with limited resources just isn't possible.
