Was this article written by a third grader? “Streets are for cars” “white cones are bad for the environment (plastic).” Lol

This article sounds like something my Republican uncle would try to write only diving into the shallowest of concepts to try to make his point. It’s lazy, uneducated, shallow, and biased. NEXT

The value of row houses is to be near a vibrant walkable area. The townhomes that get built these days are islands in a sea of suburban sprawl and so you don’t get the walkable density these buildings are designs to promote.

We may be able to build more if we promoted more transit oriented development and stop spending so much on freeway expansions and small amounts on public transit.

There is plenty of work to be done. Republicans live in an earth warming at an unprecedented rate. They too can fix this. They also can “practice bipartisanship” like the democrats where asked to do under every GOP president. Why are journalist not asking republicans about bipartisanship?

I got one have found it difficult to respect other people at large. I think it is because at least 50% of them are self interested GOP a holes that can’t seem to respect other people. Queer people, black people, poor people, immigrants, women. I thought were we all on the same page about the future and where we wanted to head and those not on that page where just not informed yet about these different groups humanity. But then these last few years have shown me that even with the knowledge of other people’s humanity, 50% of this country refuses to accept and validate our existence. I have lost respect for other people at large because even the 50% that are awake won’t necessarily go to bat for others. Like for example, Roe v Wade being over turned somehow got more women engaged and voting but Jesus, how were they not engaged before? Does something really have to effect them to see why empathy matters? Can’t people empathize with others even if the thing effecting the other person isn’t effecting themselves? The system is definitely broken
