CW: BerlinPol: war on cars
gibt nicht viel zu feiern für Berlin, aber:
»Der 17. Bauabschnitt der Autobahn A100 soll nicht weiterverfolgt werden.«
(zitiert aus nd, aus dem Sondierungspapier)yeah!
dann können wir also die anderen Abschnitte der A100 begrünen!

I was blissfully unaware of the concept of #trunkortreat. Feels kinda sad.

His infamous bother, the “crack smoking Toronto Mayor” Rob Ford, first popularized the lie about a #WarOnCars to divide urban/suburban voters and rage-farm.
Now his brother Doug ramps up the real #WarOnWalking, biking and transit, weakening the city and costing everyone money and lives. #UrbanTruth
Ontario will officially begin ... -
There's always going to be that one person (?!) that replies to my posts with such nonsense as:
"Capitalism is a good thing."
"The world was made for cars, not people."
"We need fossil fuels."
"AI won't be a talking point, just an accepted norm."
Always.

“The new route will include an eight-foot-wide, two-way protected bike path separated from vehicle traffic by a concrete or grass median. A six-foot-wide ADA-compliant sidewalk will also be constructed.” #SilverSpring #MoCo #MD #BikeTooter #walkable #ADA #WarOnCars https://mocoshow.com/2026/10/03/10-million-bicycle-and-pedestrian-project-begins-in-montgomery-county/

The more parking spaces there is, the less places there is to go to.

No car driver is innocent ... cars and road traffic are manslaughter machines via pollution by combustion gases [1] and tyre rubber particles [2], and occasionally by direct impact. In cities, cars are no longer justifiable, if they ever were.

Can't read the article, but #TeamGoat is apparent in the #WarOnCars. Glad they didn't put lots of little holes in him, like they are wont to do.

Just a reminder that if the government spent as much money on #publictransit as it does on #car infrastructure, we could all ride for free anywhere. Our car infrastructure literally uses the #soviet #plannedeconomy model #waroncars #carcentrism -
Drivers will be drivers
"Drivers in UK ignoring roadwork closures to skip queues ‘wilfully putting lives at risk’"

#WarOnCars - also the sentiment in #Rotterdam for some parties

Even cliffs, benches and concrete fence posts are getting into the action on the #WarOnCars. And with donkeys appearing to drive them up footpaths that's a good thing.

Don’t buy the lie about a war on cars. They’ve been waging a WAR ON WALKING for a century.
Once we open our eyes to the damage done by the #WarOnWalking, it’s impossible NOT to see it.
And when we finally try to improve things, giving more options for people to get around our cities, and decreasing car DEPENDENCY, they have the audacity to claim that’s a #WarOnCars.
This is our new campaign by the Urban Truth Collective. https://www.urbantruthcollective.com/
Time to achieve better cities for EVERYONE.

Once we open our eyes to the damage done by the #WarOnWalking, it’s impossible NOT to see it. At every scale, in every detail & decision, affecting every constituency, and influencing every element of culture.
And when we try to improve things, they have the audacity to claim there’s a #WarOnCars. -

Any time you hear someone seriously suggest there’s a “war on cars,” remember that the real war in cities has been the century-long WAR ON WALKING, and in recent years an increasingly obvious “bigger picture” war on BETTER CITIES.

RE: https://mastodon.art/@PastPresentArts/117161841850427503
I never feel alive in the US the way I do when walking around a European city. My wife even notices that I have a completely different energy there.
Covering our cities in parking lots not only makes walking impossible but also dulls the senses in a way I don't think most Americans realize.

Has anyone explicitly compared the deliberate restucturing of the legislative and built environment that supported #motornormativity and the present day efforts to enforce the use of LLMs? I suspect those pushing LLMs are well aware of opium and tobacco as business models (state sponsored dependency) but the enforced transformation of work and public spaces (and the erasure of competing solutions - cycling, trams), the attack on environmental regulations and public health concerns-- this feels like the enforced transition to cars is also a model for them.
@emilymbender or others - is this well trodden and I just missed the references?
