What's wrong with wanting a walkable neighborhood and things produced by craftsmen instead of Chinese mass laborers?

What's wrong with wanting a walkable neighborhood and things produced by craftsmen instead of Chinese mass laborers?
- hueving 11y agoChinese mass laborers make In-N-Out burgers? Walkable neighborhoods aren't particularly a problem, it's that the people that advocate for it pretty aggressively attack suburban living's support system to do so (cars, freeways, etc).
- AndrewUnmuted 11y agoCars and freeways are both examples of extreme largesse and horrible community planning. Freeways are some of the world's most dangerous public territories. Why would you discourage individuals from criticizing and judging these outdated, expensive, pollution death traps?
- banku_brougham 11y agoI the the objection is to the obsession with such things. Talking/posting about it all the time, etc. It's an unalloyed truth that artisanal pickles and cheese, purchased from local craftspeople, transported home on a workcycle, enjoyed on a freshly baked ciabatta, are the greatest things ever.
