Okay I don’t think anybody would deny that electric motors on bikes and scooters increases the danger! But come on now, I ain’t picking through a general search to find or reject evidence for your claim that trauma centers are being overwhelmed by ebike injuries. Surely if true it’d be in the news?

Okay you’re lumping all this stuff together. Your point is taken about scooters and class 4 throttle only e-bikes.
Pedal assist e-bikes are not dangerous unless ridden recklessly and you can’t litigate the reckless use of all things in a society

Evidence needed for the claim that ICUs are being overwhelmed by e-bike specific injuries
Also scooters are not remotely comparable to e-bikes

This is much more issue of infrastructure than with the Ebikes. E-bikes are much better positioned to replace cars as every day commuting vehicles which would be a MASSIVE benefit to urban life in a myriad of ways. They allow differently aged and able people much more freedom than acoustics

I would encourage people to actually listen to Hasan at length instead of judging clips and quotes.
But yes, this is my gripe about him too, he undermines Dems constantly, on purpose. He’s a political entertainer and therefore not a pragmatist

Ah yeah so the classic centrist ploy of stripping context.
I myself believe it is possible to tell the difference between outright bigotry and the use of humor to genuinely wrestle with societal racism

Just returning to this to state that this can both be true AND they can receive a modicum of credit for resisting the Trump movement instead of hitching onto it

God damnit, someone just bought me the Abundance book and I wanted to read it without bias since I don’t know much about him. Hanania is a certified creep. Why is basic assessment of character so hard for elite pundits these days?

Liz Cheney has horrid politics but she spoke up when her party turned explicitly fascist and it’s okay to recognize her Trumpy replacement is a worse result for America and the world

I’m not playing debate club with you, my point fucking obvious
comment in response to

I agree with this but there’s a reason Cheneys political career is over while many her previous colleagues carry on

Trump wants to destroy the American government and make himself king. Liz Cheney doesn’t support that. It’s not that hard to understand.

I’m just trying to highlight for you that having conservative representatives who don’t want to destroy the government they constitute would be better than what we have now
