MODERATORS
The British people conceive of the bike as an exotic machine used for Olympic time trials. We would never actually use one to go to the shops. This is fundamentally a nation of bigoted Dunning-Kruger morons that keep voting for the people who don't build cycle paths and other progressive policy. Every day we fall further into irrelevance. These people think that if we act like Victorians we will achieve the success of that era, meanwhile the rest of the world has moved on.
Amazing. Like a 1960s throwback, the Mark Lamarr of dystopian politics.
Jay Foreman has some nice (and very funny) video's about why Cycling isn't more common in the UK in his series Unfinished London.
