Btw, I remember there being some anxieties around folks expressing their opinions during primaries.
Besides being nowhere near a presidential primary at the moment, now is in fact the time for people to express certain lines they expect candidates not to cross.
Protect trans folks.

My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

There is no possible justification for limiting e-bikes to 15mph but not cars.

![the "stop doing math" meme except it says "STOP DRIVING CARS". the meme reads:
* PEOPLE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED IN CAGES
* YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for building ONE MORE LANE
* Wanted to travel large distances anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "TRAINS"
* "Yes please give me NO GREENERY. Please give me INFINITE PAVEMENT" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged
LOOK at what Civil Engineers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the concrete and asphalt we built for them
(This is REAL Civil Infrastructure, done by REAL Civil Engineers):
