MODERATORS
You say that as if we didn't already do it once before, when we demolished perfectly-good walkable downtowns to pave over them for car parking.
Yeah but then it was actually politically viable.
You're a voter. You get to help decide what's politically viable. Giving up makes no sense.
I’ve been voting for 25 years and not once have I felt any damn influence
It's not just your votes, it's also your actions and your words. For example, when you say green transport policy will never happen, you're making it less likely, and undoing your votes.
I don’t disagree that my comments on a backwater social media site for nerds are more influential than my vote.
Still never gonna happen.
