I’m of the total opposite mindset. I love having them where I travel, and I will fight to my dying breath to keep them out of my city lol.
Before I am called a hypocrite I am totally fine with other cities keeping them out. But if they’re there, I’m using them (and putting them where they belong instead of leaving them scattered everywhere like an asshole)
Hence why I clarified that I have no issue with them being removed. They’re terrible when you’re not the one using them.
It’s my same outlook with cruises. I don’t do them, but if my family wanted to take one I would probably join. I am also super cool with them being banned from the world. Feels pretty consistent to me lol
As much as the scooters used to annoy me, the Atlanta ban demonstrated that their presence has a significant positive effect on both pollution and traffic, so now I’m fine with them.
I’m fine with them in no backyards. They are corporate waste the way people treat them 90% of the time. If people were better about them (and wore helmets!!!) and the companies actually lifted a finger to keep them out of waterways and blocking sidewalks then I’d be down to have them here.
I get you were trying to cleverly call me a NIMBY but please actually read what I am writing. Including the original comment. I was very clear.

You’re right, it’s very NIMBY sounding

I agree that you’re consistent, that’s why I said the strong initial statement sounded hypocritical

Dude honestly sounds proud of being a NIMBY
Not in your backyard huh?
