Go ahead and keep doing that, while also letting public transportation get filthier and less safe every day. See what happens to car ownership.
If you are a public transit "activist", I'd suggest trying to actually improve public transit (like enforcing fares, hiring more operators, etc) instead of continuing your crusade against cars. Otherwise, speaking from personal experience, more people will give up on public transportation and turn to personal vehicles instead.
- safestreetrebel 3y agoOh don't worry, were definitely fighting for better public transit too! Top-down successes like ensuring state bridge funding to prevent a death spiral for now (was a big multi-coalition effort), local support for new bus lanes (e.g. on Geary), to bottom-up direct action work that is secret :)
- asadotzler 3y agoThis is bullshit and no one should listen to you. The idea that the only acceptable actions people should take are to improve one thing instead of tearing another down. The US could have let the Germans do their thing in WWI and focused on building a great alternative here at home, but sometimes it's actually worth tearing down evil over building up good.
- buzzert 3y agoJust to get this straight, "please focus on making public transportation cleaner and safer" is "bullshit" to you?
