If you are curious about why so much is bad/broken in North American Cities, NOT JUST BIKES will…

rotspeaker:

I have to like. titrate how often I watch NJB videos bc the stuff he talks about makes me SO ANGY and then I have to go outside and DEAL with the stuff he’s talkin about on a regular basis and I just combust into a ball of rage. but one thing that is comforting is that he seems to be just as furious especially since he also has to deal with asshats in his comments who have no listening comprehension or ability to think outside their own consumerism-addled brains

anyway fuck these stupid ass fucking trucks ✌🏿

If you are curious about why so much is bad/broken in North American Cities, NOT JUST BIKES will open your eyes.

We have been so indoctrinated by more than a century of car culture, it never occurs to most of us that there is anything wrong with designing the places we live to accommodate vehicles rather than people.

And considering that many of the government policies that contribute to these NA urban problems were due to deliberate policy? I mean who would deliberately set out to make our world worse just to make money? As it turns out: an awful lot of people.

The very idea that vehicle manufacturers would build these stupid trucks that are not just more dangerous for the people outside them (as the thumbnail image demonstrates drivers literally can’t see children, animals, people in wheelchairs right in front of them) but more dangerous to the people inside them ON PURPOSE is mind boggling. But they do because they can make more money and avoid regulations.

Please watch the video; this is something everyone needs to see.
