And never mind the rampant spread of bedbugs and disease, being exposed to violence and sexual assault, risking being arrested simply for angering the bus driver, being made late to work or even missing it entirely because of bus breakdowns, route changes or cancellations, or any number of problems that are more easily rectified with an electric car or a bike
Yes, they are inherent issues. You can’t control who goes on that bus and therefore can’t guarantee the safety of passengers. You can’t control whether buses break down or if the routes will change or not, so you can’t guarantee riders will get to work on time, if at all. And in many cities, bus service is so poor that jobs will not hire people who ride the bus for those reasons.
You also can’t stop people from spreading bedbugs and disease, and we all saw how well you reacted to that during covid.
Accept that you’re just wrong on this. No matter how much you want buses to be a viable solution, they just aren’t.
this line reminds me of a LGBT+ liberal I talked too about public transport infastructure once, I suggested moving to banning all cars in inner city areas and replacing it in a phase out way with a robust walkable city infastructure that priortizes walking and the disabled first, bikes, busses/trams/subways then finally only emergancy cars with outer rings to service delivery vehicles.
They said ‘but im LGBT and cant travel on public transport because il get attacked or harrassed i wont give up my car for anything you’re a fasicist’
It made me realize how IDpolitics is weaponized, they make the climate towards minorties so weaponized they want to isolate themselves as much as possible. The solution to there paranoia was obviously a socialist controlled society that made the social climate less hostile to LGBT+ comrades and headshotting the neo-liberal media who drive up tensions directed toward them, but all they could express this anixiety as was in anti-green measures because thats the pre-planned route the capitalists drive minorties down through the conditions that they create.
Normal people don’t live in your strawman world of mental conjurations. Civilized countries already have great public transportation infrastructure working for hundreds of years.

Yeah man because these are all inherent issues and not at all to do with the implementation
