This is not Activism

This is MLM Grift.

#WindsorON #YQG #Cycling #Urbanist activists are making a big deal that Windsor is hosting the #OntarioBikeSummit2025 in late May.

I'm not going to link to the website, because they want to charge attendees who register "early" (Before April 15th) $550 plus "fees and taxes". After April 15th, this cost goes up to, get this $775 +

The vast majority of people in this community who NEED Active, Alternative, Accessible, Affordable #VisionZero infrastructure and policies are EXACTLY the people who these "Advocates" have decided to price out of participating.

#Urbanism in general suffers from an egregious #Privlidge issue, but this is absolutely disgusting.

You can be guaranteed that these groups, these people, will be there shilling their books, their membership fees, their Patreon Pages, more than they do anything else

Then vs now.

At Årstaberg station (commuter rail & LRT ring line) just outside inner city Stockholm. Big redevelopment ongoing. Low rise light industry to high rise residential (fairly urban). Including eastern entrance going from stairs & ramp up to narrow shared use path, to a a plaza with nice ramp & stairs, wide pedestrian + cycling bridge across, and a big grocery store coming!
Other side getting somewhat redeveloped soon too.

i'm sam and work as a
#science #teacher in #denver #colorado and i live with my partner, aurora (@celestiallavendar@icedoatmilk.coffee), and our #cat, cheeto (he's orange lmao) ​:neocat_floof_cute:
honestly, these days i am just trying to constantly learn more and read more and do more and explore new hobbies, especially being an
#urbanist (i'm obsessed with #publictransit) and #actuallyautistic (meaning i'm too burnt out to actually do things) and i am also trying to learn #spanish and #tokipona and really like #homestuck #pokemon #doctorwho #anime #rollercoasters #biochemistry and #possums:neopossum_cute:

anyways, i'd love to make more
#friends so feel free to follow or talk to me, especially if you're also a #queer #neurospicy chaos gremlin too! ​:blobbee_neurodiverse:

Anar from BikeSD, who’s the spokesperson in the video, had the idea for subverting the messaging to highlight the benefits to everyday citizens who are dependent on our car-centric society. I thought it was genius and encourage other #urbanist advocates to do the same.

Just launched my account on tenforward.social, so it's time for an #introduction!

I'm a writer and artist and I like to combine those in the form of comics. I had a modestly successful webcomic back in the day and bringing it back is my full-time job at the moment. You can see my art stuff at @nickthewright@mastodon.art!

I also sometimes make videos, video games, podcasts and I occasionally even do improv. You can see all my various stuff at nickthewright.com

My core fandom is #StarTrek and I volunteer for #TrekTrack at #DragonCon. I've been into #anime almost as long as I've been into Trek, and I grew up with Ranma 1/2, Kimagure Orange Road, and Dirty Pair (currently I'm really enjoying Frieren). I also like Star Wars and other generally geeky stuff.

I'm an #Xennial. I support #trans and #queer rights, I'm #leftist af, #antifascist and #anticapitalist. I'm #vegan, #bicyclist, #urbanist and #atheist.

If none of that scares you, hi!

This is an incredible ticket for so many reasons, but take a moment to appreciate that Gov #Walz has made remarkable progress on #transit and #urbanist issues in Minnesota (I made a video about it here: youtu.be/fbkvSqXElJo?si=iBkAxI). We've never seen a more pro-transit ticket! #HarrisWalz2024

The USA is unique (and abhorrent) in that we force our large numbers of poor people to saddle themselves with auto debt and drive just to safely meet basic needs - even in cities. And that makes us a lot more dependent on cheap EVs to reduce transport emissions.

Multiple layers of policy failure here which make Biden's tariffs on Chinese EVs damning. But it all comes back to our sociopathic auto makers and their grip on this society.

Also, this is why I am a die-hard #urbanist.
