How is using your legs in an urban area political?

  How that urban area came to be is highly political. How it evolves is as well.

      > Combine that with that UK city that wants people to get permission to leave there zones... If you’re referring to the Oxfordshire plan, this has been somewhat misrepresented. The proposal is to limit access through some specific roads in the city center. Residents can use the ring road to access the same destinations without any restrictions.

    Yeah, after all the insane conspiracy theories of the past couple of years, I thought conspiracies had peaked. But no, this one takes the cake. Apparently everything that helps people and makes life a bit nicer is inherently suspect and evil. Only if we suffer in mindless dystopia can we be truly free, or something.

  Some people oppose walking and biking and transit infrastructure on the basis that poor and other undesirable people will start showing up in their neighborhoods. Not everything has to be political, but if you start digging, everything is.
