@emoscientist.bsky.socialMany in California were paved over rails used by streetcars people probably thought wouldn’t be just allowed to die. The state has never backed up its rhetoric about transit with adequate funding, the Feds think transit is a gay communist conspiracy. No one’s coming to save our systems except us.
Show PostYou don’t need me to add to the chorus on Measure RTM (or H), but a bit of historical perspective: The original vote to build BART passed by *1.2%*. Imagine the Bay Area without BART. Now imagine it again, bc that is a very real possibility …

Show Postonce again noteworthy how the media in these primaries repeatedly portrayed Stevens as a reasonable mainstream Dem and Hong as a "crazy" extremist outside the Dem party. Not just refusing to tell the truth about these candidates but telling people the *opposite* of the truth. It's interesting!
