Finally you're talking like yourself now.  What took so long?

You're the one crying about poor frustrated drivers, you big dumb b!tch.

You mean the middle of roads?  LOL.  Stop crying (and talking) like a baby.  Yes we know you don't GAF about anyone besides your own loony utopian ideas nobody but loons like yourself want because you're a Stalinist.

LOl remember when you were jizzing your pants when I posted a picture of some nightmarish stroad with no sidewalks? Of course not, you have dementia.

Nobody cares what you think.  You have no power, except one vote like everyone else.  The power belongs to the people.  If cities start doing dumb stuff people don't want the city councilors and mayors will lose their jobs.  That's how democracies work.  Let them try whatever schemes they want, it will be fun to see them unemployed.

You do since every week you lose your mind over something I post here. Probably either when the meds wear off or when you start hitting the bottle.

I have no idea what a kill box is.  Don't you support the no-go zones?  Sounds sorta like open-air prisons to me. The 15 min city on the WEF website.  There's no conspiracy, its right in the open for everyone to see.  The elites go to these Davos thingies and come back with these Build Back Better ideas.  Chrystia Freeland seems like a big WEF fan.  She's in charge of Canada's federal budget FFS.

Maybe one day we'll own nothing, and we'll be happier.

Look at this nightmarish open air prison lmao.



The rest of your post is just idiot madlibs.

Are they allowed to go 20 blocks west in a straight line?  LOL

Areas without cars are like prisons? I'm confused.

The rural municpality of Victoria Beach in Manitoba has never allowed cars in the summer in its residential area. You have to park in a parking lot outside the gate and walk in. (Although there is a cab service if needed.) It's rather utopian and I think they managed to get through the Cold War without anyone calling them Stalinist.

Macinac Island in Michigan is kind of nice too. The lack of cars there make it a tourist attraction.

The more he tries to scare me with this 15-minute city idea, the more I think it sounds pretty good.

No, just areas you're not allowed to leave in your car without doing long loopty-loops designed to frustrate you.

Isn't that how they designed car culture for the past 50 years? The grid layout went out in the 1960s.

Postwar suburban development was specifically created with looping, curvilinear streets and cul de sacs which are by design hostile to pedestrians and cyclists (because distances between points are longer, the layouts are confusing and roads are meant to move cars as fast as possible with few intersections). So while drivers may have to go further out of their way, they can do so faster than in a grid.

No, just areas you're not allowed to leave in your car without doing long loopty-loops designed to frustrate you.

Pretty sure having a direct route between point A and B in your car is not a human right.

Its all a conspiracy against bikes and walking!!

Nobody said it is.

There's lots of areas friendly to bikes and walking and public transit.  Its called anywhere more urban than the suburbs.  The poorest and the richest people live there.  15min city already exists.  I know lots of people who don't own cars.  What's the issue?  Well we know you want to control everyone so they're forced to live in your personal utopia.  Good luck with that lol.

No.  Some cities in the UK want to create "zones" and fine you for driving outside your zone on the most convenient roads to your destination in order to discourage you from driving because this is what white urban yuppies dream up in their spare time.  I suspect it will never get off the ground since its such a dumb and crazy idea.

When the Hunger Games come i'd like to live in District 7, which District do you want to live in?

If I'm not mistaken,  Victoria Beach was off limits to Jews until sometime after World War 2.  It explains why there is such a relatively large Jewish population at Winnipeg Beach.

Maybe there's a connection. No cars, no Jews.

Its a resort.  It sounds nice.  We should ban all cars everywhere and never leave the resort.

No one is banning cars. It's ridiculous that you would consider that a potential threat

I never said they were banning cars (strawman).  Just purposefully and needlessly making it more difficult to get anywhere (defacto qausi-ban).
