We know how to fix this...
Increase Urban density around new suburban "nodes" Make those nodes walkable 15 minute citties. Link nodes to other nodes with mass transit and bike lanes.
@DarKnight0 @Tak
Yep.

Yeh. The 16% who voted no for a grocery store probably voted no for everything else, too.
@Rediphile @CableMonster
Yes those too!
There is probably some scientific way to do this. Measure the impact on roads, society, other road users and the environment. and tax the vehicles with the worst impact more.
@CableMonster
Thanks.
You can probably see where I am going with this.
There is a big difference between a smaller practice work truck and a giant monster truck.
The aim of any taxes should be to discourage certain trucks and encourage others.
@CableMonster @anothercatgirl
Just out of curiosity, what sort of truck do you drive?

It's why I loved living right in the city, as a young man.

When buying a car, you have a wide choice of shitty corporations to purchase from.

We want them to stop drilling for more oil.
Throwing 1% of their profits on Lithium mining, while continuing to increase their emissions isn't really a win.

Yes, he's deciding for other people who use the platform. It's called Moderation.
It means that users don't have to spend their time blocking stuff and can get on with enjoying the platform.
This is not the same as the government blocking everyone's access to something. Where nobody can see certain content. That may be a free speech issue. If you want to see car company's PR, then there are hundreds of other platforms you can go to.
This is free speech. The right to hear as well as not hear on a PRIVATE platform.

Why is everyone so cynical here?
I am sure if we build just one more tunnel, everything will be fixed this time. 😜
