Kia ora toot friends. (Hello in Māori language)
Tonight I am bringing some #transport, #bikes, #cycling, #urbanism and #antiCar#memes.
I hope you enjoy them and are radicalised like I am. Once you start seeing how we've been trapped by #carDependency you cannot unsee it again.
Let's fight for space for people, cities that are walkable, accesible, clean, green and safe.
Of course, please contribute your own memes to the thread and also radicalise your family, workmates and friends!
But we've adopted #CarCulture so deeply that for many, an attack on cars in general feels like a personal attack. Any attempt to reclaim space in our cities for #bicyles, #people, #parks or children feels like a loss that needs to be stopped and defended against.
Often ignoring the reality that our urban built environment (and much of the rural building too) is completely car centric.
