  • That’s because this way of city planning is normal there.

    If we’re allowed to factor in “normality” here, it’s a good idea to add some context to what’s got you so ornery…

    It sucks that America’s urban development came alongside the commercialization of cars, but here we are.

    Yes Amsterdam is great, it’s a beautiful city with great public transportation. It tracks that a city founded in the 13th century would be designed for a population that walks everywhere.

    It’s a strange comparison to make.

    Perhaps in 500 years Americas infrastructure will suit whatever social transportation trend people will be arguing about online. Until then I’ll just do my best to minimize my impact and try not to be a cock.
