Calling their ad platform "auxiliary" when it's their core business is hilarious. You are completely out of your element here.

Then they should say that and frame their arguments around that. That's my entire point. Do you see any mention of public transportation improvements in the comment I originally replied to? No, you don't. The movement has no hope

If you remove car infrastructure in SF, for example, there are massive amounts of the city that will die because they lack adequate public transit options. You remove mobility, and you remove any hope for underserved communities to survive,

Why is it always framed this way? This is NOT the solution. The solution is to build better public transportation options. That will necessarily include removing a decent amount of the car infrastructure, but you can't just remove car

Cars are often one of the most, if not the most, expensive purchases people will make in their lives. It's not unreasonable to me to have extra protections for those purchases.

Great, that's $15m-$30m (if you accept that it's somehow $1500/unit to ship??). Only $50m-65m left to account for! And once again (and again and again...), I'm not claiming the $80m number is a lie. You just can't t

No one is saying that he is definitively lying about the $80m. Why do you keep saying that? All I'm saying is that his tweet is not a reliable source for that number. We'd need another, more reliable source to confirm.
