I think the point sweetheart was making is that a sarcastic response without any counterpoint isn't productive. I don't think dcgudeman understood my comment without more context, but i was happy to provide that.

I'm just here to have interesting, productive conversations :)

I'm expressing how the privatization and capitalization of public spaces is as old as america itself -- as expressed in this early colonial poem -- and the Musk takeover of twitter is just another example.

"the law doth punish man or woman that steals the goose from off the common, but lets the greater felon loose that steals the common from the goose"

-17th-century poem

Still holds up.

Right - in most of the country our infrastructure and laws exist to basically only serve cars (most notably the idea of "jaywalking"). Glad steps are being taken in the interest of non-car transportation options.
