Walkable cities being the new right wing scare tactic is so funny to me. Bike lanes are literally 1984

Yeah I feel like these are different things lol A CBDC is just the government paying you digitally and not in cash right? And 15 minute city is just a good idea, I’ve never understood the conspiracy theory nonsense lol.

Hilarious that this is used to attack the idea of walkable cities but the surveillance it’s complaining about already exists lmao

But I just no idea how you get the weird 15 minute conspiracy stuff, why would they lock you down to that? Lol I thought it was just planning a city so that basic needs and locations such as groceries, jobs, park, church, school, transit stop are within a 15 minute walk or bike

As seen in Gaza, it makes it a lot harder to oppress a people when they are confined to a small land area.

Doesn’t mean that you’ll have like a university or a specialized hospital. But you’ll have basic care / access to a doctor lol

Also will have access to 10 uniformed cops per square mile and probably like 100 secret police

A lot of the benefit of the city is the specialized stuff they have. So you might have to drive to go to like an Olympic gym. Or drive to your specific job. I think we can also have lots of wins by cutting transit times from like 1 hr to 30-45 minutes, even if that’s not a 15 minute city.
