Spent the better part of a week in naples earlier this year.

In naples you have crossing points but no lights as far as i can tell. traffic is constant so you like kind of have to walk out in traffic and hope it either stops or drives/rides around you.

Was an interesting adjustment i had to make

Are drivers in Paris even aware of the sidewalks? I was almost run over by a motorcycle on a sidewalk in Paris 20 years ago

That was not my experience living in Paris. I'd say the drivers were not amazing but still a little better than average for a big city.

I mean........ If any society has ever deserved to be nuked, it would have been imperial Japan.

Also, they and Germany mainly became our friends post ww2 because all three countries bonded over hating communist more than anything.

've seen where jaywalkers regularly endanger themselves and fuck up the flow of traffic

Good, fuck traffic, walking should always have priority.

It's a fascinating read, but I didn't quite get the connection either. I can see how the quote can be understood as "submission of the individual to the State", but that's far from the only way I can see to take it.

It could certainly be a dogwhistle, but I'm also curious about the connection.

Fixed 🔗.
Tl;dr the streets were payed by the tax payers, it belongs to tax payers, and it should be used as the tax payers see fit. If Japanese folks want to walk on them, then do so, without a fascist mythos of a downfall that will not exist. Streets are meant to be travelled, by stroller or auto. If not, I’m strolling a hike on the wilderness.

But I’m extremely worried now, lemmy isn't being intolerant to the intolerant. There was zero reason to be stopped at all. How lemmy is not getting that, is extremely worrying.

“And then they came for the protestors, and because I was an automobile owner, I ignored it.” ← your whistle is right here.

Cager scum.
