Why do Demonrats want to force all of us to live in the inner city?
submitted 2 years ago by Adventurous_Ad6212 from self.AskSaidIt
Is it because they want to make us all as miserable as they are from the sound of drive by cultural enrichment and increased crime?

There's this 15 minute city thing where everything you need is within a 15 minute walk to stop you driving.
Sounds nice but it's really about creating battery farmed workers with no communities.

Yeah it sounds good but then you kinda realise.
That is, will it be enforced or just practical? This shit is turning me into a Marxist quick. What are we, fucking rats in a maze to these people? Abolish the capitalist elite and let us earn our money for ourselves rather than some oligarch who slurps up the proceeds. Same goes for war. It's never not about capital interest.

It's going to be enforced in new builds in a lot of countries. You know, progressive places which care about the environment like Saudi Arabia.

In the U.S., they are already waiving parking space requirements for developers in many cases. They are starting to build apartments with no parking available.

Doesn't work, see Houston. There's 5 versions of everything in a 15 minute walk, including asian massage parlors, everyone still drives everywhere.

Most places aren't as car reliant as American though.

Yep, it has more to do with poor urban planning than distance. Cities are designed around cars.

There are LOTS of reasons. One is that rural people are more independent from the system than city people. The more reliant you are on infrastructure the more willing you are to vote with the government and their cultural controllers.
You understand. When someone chooses to live in a large city, they are already agreeable to give up a certain amount of "freedom" in the name of convenience. A lot of those people don't understand that that kind of system doesn't work for most of the country, in the same way that most people in rural areas don't understand that people in these large cities are ok with that.

To rob us of any leverage. All about control.

Inner city people are basically like cattles in terms of how they completely depend on the government. Government's goal is to make everyone into cattle they can farm.

The elite cocksuckers want the land for their own use.

Because people in the city are easy to control and manipulate, and program especially. You can have facial recognition everywhere, everyone can be tracked and traced 24/7, and you can be bombarded 24/7 with propaganda.

The elitist (as I call them) want us peasants out of the way, so they can have their beaches and resorts to themselves.

Because they are out of touch rich city people and think that is what everyone wants.
It's an ideology that stretches back to the Roman times; To fear the forest. They feared outside they city bounds, where the unknown was. It was mostly forests and rural landscapes; ie "trackless forest and swamps". While it is common to fear the unknown, especially if people leave for there and never come back, it was always important to attract people to a city and encourage them not to leave, even by use of fear tactics. A dwindling city had dwindling tax revenue and dwindling conscripts for their armies.
