Buy-dem and Buttbrain: Highways are Racist

Excerpt:
"Now highways are racist – and must be cancelled.
So saith the new Oberbefehlshaber der Transport – Pete Buttigieg. Whose bona fides to hold this office are purely political. Hiring him for this gig is like hiring Fauci to play lead guitar for Van Halen.
At any rate:
“Black and brown neighborhoods have been disproportionately divided by highway projects or left isolated by the lack of adequate transit and transportation resources.”
Come again?
How does it “isolate” anyone – black or brown or whatever their shade – when it is easy to get anywhere, as the godfather of soul, James Brown, once sang about, back when America was still sane? Just slide behind the wheel, how does it feel?
Pretty damned good.
That’s what living in America is like.
Thanks to the Interstate Highway System, which made Americans individually mobile. That’s what James Brown’s anthem is all about – and it’s what people like Buttigieg want Americans to forget all about.
Prior to its existence, there was Route 66 – which in many places was a meandering two-lane that went directly through downtowns.
It was scenic – a TV show was made about it – but it was far from easy to get anywhere. It wasn’t an arterial system, like the Interstate system. It went from the midwest to LA and if you wanted to get anywhere else, you took side roads and that took a long time.
Families couldn’t just get in the car and drive to Disneyland – or to see their grandparents in an adjacent state.
Not over a long weekend, anyhow.
People outside of cities were, indeed, “isolated” . . . before there were “superhighways, coast to coast.”"
Federal Government wants the People to be isolated and dependent, easy to control slaves. Without individual transportation, can People who disagree with Government in 45 states go to the Dark Center of America to express their views? No, the People are kept under surveillance and easily controlled, captured, and killed by murderers like the FBI.

I'm sure I'll miss it once I become accustomed to being back in DFW. I already miss the slower, saner life we had in Tulsa, but that's not where the job and the kids are.
Take it easy!
Same! Even my wife thought so once we actually got on there - and she didn't know about the show. Perhaps it was me updating her on the history of Route 66. She didn't understand my excitement when I found out it was on the route, but after we were on it for a while she just said out of the blue "why does this just feel right?" >.<
Highways are racist because they have "blacktop". Asphalt, after all, is black.

Oh, the shame! THE SHAME!
It's also more than a little ironic (and tragic) that Democrats are talking about repressing blacks, because it was their own party which bragged about building inner cities as modern plantations. Note that the blacks who continue to live in these areas are the victims of off-the-charts criminal behavior including drug addiction and gang violence.
If they tell us that 2+2=4 is racist, or that highways are racist, we are to shut up, and obey!

A good question for the beef haters is how did the planet ever survive the millions of buffalo, caribou, and elk pooping and farting all over North America? Oh yeah, I know, along came the white man who slaughtered the great herds and saved the planet!

Did allow the g'vmt to nationalize passenger traffic though.

Lols this govt is a joke at best, and destructive at worst.
I'll never forget it.
I agree, electric vehicles are not a viable, economic solution even it electric energy is free.
