Ban these fucking things or at least ban anyone under 25 from using them

These little assholes zoom around at light speed colliding into grandmas

Not sure what it is about electric scooters but people on them are way more reckless and less mindful than cyclists

The worst part about these things is that it’s an old ploy of techno :libertarian-approaching:. They have something against walking. It’s why they do bullshit like this or sell the stupid idea of a hyper loop.

It’s really hard to commodify, repackage, and privatize walking. You need a rivalrous and excludable good if you’re going to rent-seek effectively.

It’s because they don’t walk. They likely don’t even remember how to drive or open their own fridge. I wouldn’t be surprised if they have someone wiping their ass like Puyi
