Many car drivers suffer from #cyclepathy. A cyclepathic person tends to see cyclepaths everywhere which leads to uncontrollable angry outbreaks. These outbreaks might be verbal, i.e. people shouting “cyclepath!” at the top of their lungs while driving.

If you are friends or family with a cyclepath, you can support them. Repair their old #bicycle. Go on a ride with them. Cut their drivers license. Join a bicycle race. Have fun.

💡 #TIL about „Carscism“ and now you did, too.

Because I just created this word under the shower, but I think adequately describes Mobility Politics in (at least) Germany and the #USA.

Please spread it and help it come to life and fill a lexical gap!

@MartyCormack @ascentale @scottsthoughts This is a reason why I am glad to live in Germany. Don’t get me wrong. There is motorized violence as well, drivers trying to force you off the road using their cars as weapons, crashing into you, but it is very unlikely to be shot.

It's always heartbreaking to hear about the death of a fellow fedizen, even if I didn't know them.

I didn't really know #Natenom, but I followed him and respected him.
What's especially gruesome is that @natenom always wrote about #MotorizedViolence straight from #FahrradMordor, Germany and now he himself was killed by a car driver while biking.

#RIPNatenom, you will be missed.
