This would be a good shift to combat the #Enfattening and #Enshittification of #cars!

These are some streets of my village of 3000 people, 42km north of the capitol in Finland.
We have bike lanes, wide sidewalks and affordable public transportation running from 05 to 23.
This, my friends, is freedom. Freedom of movement. And I feel patriotic pride for being a member of an awesome nation that takes care of it’s people so well.
Can’t imagine ever living or rising a family in a shithole that doesn’t. Just wouldn’t be the same
@scott Yeah, when in fact #WalkableNeighbourhoods get revitalized and that is a #fact, whereas #CarCentrism is killing Cities not just financially...
@AnarchoKitty so yeah, #WalkableCities are actually the norm - it's only toxic #Hyperindividualism that got us #Suburbia with it's ugly copy & baste housing and lack of #walkableNeighbourhoods as well as local amendities...
Something most medium and large size cities in #Europe just do naturally...

Attached: 1 image Finding out there's a not insignificant amount of people think that a #15MinuteCity means creating little isolated island prisons is a whole new level of human idiocy that I wasn't expecting to ruin my day today. Alright fuckers listen up. 15 minute cities are simply a city designed around the basic fucking principles of #urbanplanning and having actual walkable streets so that wherever you are in the city, or wherever your neighborhood is, you have all the basics necessities you need to go about your day within a 15 minute trip. This isn't isolated to singular neighborhoods or "zones". It's an interconnected network accross the entire city, in any place you are, in the city as a whole. This isn't some new agenda, or just about #ClimateChange or the #environment, it's about designing our cities around human needs and #Community. It's how we used to have our cities before cars took over. If you need to go further, or prefer to go further, you can easily do so by #walking #publictransit or #biking. It's just going to take longer than 15 minutes. That's it. Shocking I know. Why are people like this? Just take the train you fuckwits. #Anarchist #socialism #communism
@paultk #ElectricCars won't save the plante, but #PublicTransport and #WalkableNeighbourhoods will...
Otherwise you just externalize and the change the emissions...
@davidzipper +9001%
We need #SmallerVehicles everywhere incentives like #WalkableNeighbourhoods, #BikingInfrastructure and useable and #accessible #PublicTransport ain't gonna cut it.

And #scientists have already said so in a study:

#TLDR: #PersonalLightVehicles instead of #SuperUselessVehicles must be normalized!
So my 12 year old cousin lives 0.6 miles from his middle school and has no idea how to walk there or back. Nor even the direction it is.
Its literally like 1 turn as well, not some crazy complicated street layout.
I cannot believe how little he knows about his own neighborhood, and its obviously caused by my aunt/uncle driving him everywhere.
@Egghat Warum nicht gleich ne #Fußgängerzone machen?
Aber dann müsste #Stockholm ja ne echte #Verkehrswende mit #ÖPNV & #ÖPFV sowie #WalkableNeighbourhoods machen, statt einfach nur #batterielektrisch|e #SuperUselessVehicle vorzuschreiben...
Oder sehe ich das falsch, @SheDrivesMobility ???
@mynameistillian That's because for the entire eastern block, #carcentric #UrbanPlanning was neither feasible [#fuel was scarce and artificially subsidized] in mass-scale nor contrary to #collectivism as #privacy in like seperated #Suburban homes was deemed dangerous and suspicious.
Needless to say when #Cars are not an option, #PublicTransit and #WalkableNeighbourhoods with all necessities in walkable distances are basically a necessity for everyone.
