Car-hater Ben Furnas has been appointed to Mamdani’s transition team for transportation, climate and infrastructure – and his agenda is a nightmare for the city’s drivers.
There’s a huge difference between personal behavior and policy. I’d rather see politicians who, while flawed in their personal lives, improve the lives of their constituents, than saints who sell out to the highest bidder.
But I suspect your snark does not come from a place of good faith, which is why you resort to cheap ad hominem attacks.
Overall I agree with the push against cars in an extremely dense city. Emergency vehicles, public transportation, logistics trucks (delivery/moving/etc) should have priority. I also like it when people lead by example.
Who is leading by example in the U.S. at this point? You’re literally just preemptively bitching and villainizing about an idea that would genuinely improve lives. Maybe just shut the fuck up instead of being a doomer and give things a chance to work before railing against good ideas and declaring the people advocating for them as hypocrites. I’m so fucking sick of your specific brand of asshole anymore.
