Yes. Guess what, you have to live with those people and you have to convince them to vote on your policies.
If you're going to sit there nagging them over stupid rare occurrence shit and piss them off you don't get your policies. So go ahead and waste political capital pissing off voters with inconsequential shit that pisses them off.
Pragmatic politics is dead replaced by whiney absolutism.
Edit: the best part is even if you go ahead and get to piss everyone off is it'll never ever be enforced except in certain high traffic intersections.
no I don't and won't because they don't listen. If you want to get something done in politics, you lobby local politicians directly.
For the record, we don't have right-on-red, here, because we're not insane enough to think that's a good idea. Bicycle lanes stop ~2 meters in front of cars so they're visible and get to enter the intersection first because it literally saves lives. Fuck car-owners feelings.
You talk about being pissed off and having others cater to your fee fees and then call out others for whining and having entitled behavior ….mmmk. The hypocrisy is rather thick in here today.
I guess you don't know what political capital is and how it relates 🤷♂️
As stated before. Pragmatic politics and policy making is dead.
Whine some more and act entitled. That’s gonna make you look so much better while you mow down pedestrians
