Your cause hangs on the "safety" like that hang in there motivational cat poster. Yeah, no one wants anyone hurt, so we look like an ass fighting it. But the real trickery is deep in the policies where the word "safety" is redefined from what we think in our heads to align with fuck cars agendas. Safety, for my city, is absolute lowest priority, congestion as means for traffic control, blind obstructions, denied autonomy, and the absolute gem: we made collecting negative data about these changes illegal.
We unloaded both barrels into our feet before we even knew what happened. You're SOOO behind the times.
