It’s Gabe 🚴‍♂️🚲🚵<p>I mean <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/fuckcars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fuckcars</span></a> all day, every day, but there’s a million reasons why a $10,000 good sized Seagull EV is better than 95% of other EVs in the North American market. And Chinese manufacturers are outselling most other EVs makers in Europe. I’d rather see massive expansion in public transit vehicle manufacturing and, again, fuck cars every day all day but I’m also not blind to the economy in Ontario <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>canada</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ontario</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/onpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>onpoli</span></a></p>

Imagine you were a baker and your cakes were eaten by everyone in the country. Then imagine those cakes killed 40,000 people a year and sent 2,000,000 more to the hospital per year. Do you think your cake factory would be allowed to keep operating? Well, that's cars in America. Their money buys the law and lets them sell dangerous products and face no accountability. <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/FuckCars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckCars</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/FuckMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckMusk</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/NaziMobile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NaziMobile</span></a></p>

😀🚲<p>Being pretty car-lite, spouse ends up driving 100 miles per week, some of which are 10 or 15-mile round trips I would do via electric cargo bike. A lot is errands or activities within 3-5 miles, but some is planned around the car and might go differently if she saw bikes as viable / non-intimidating transportation, and she's especially uncomfortable with the idea of having kids on board, flat-out won't try it on this [paint/missing] infrastructure. <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/RangeAnxiety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RangeAnxiety</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/VisionZero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VisionZero</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/FuckCars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckCars</span></a> <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Bollards" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bollards</span></a></p>
