oh god he's so fucked; he better damn hope all the carlovers and trumpoids come over right away and unite his people against them; because nothing causes public disagreement like leaving these types of idiots to themselves for any length of time.

Imagine physically shaking over comments calling you a retard for wanting to take people's cars. You're a small man Jason.

Well if you saw a guy kneeling by your car and turning around with a knife in his hand, I think that warrants a blasting according to most Texans.

A blasting, ass kicking, whatever you want to call it. What if you had a emergency? These people are playing with other people's lives and livelihoods when they do this. Not to mention tires cost quite a bit for good ones.

I was curious if Jason Slaughter was still supporting fellow London, Ontario lolcow Lucas/Keffals after his "return" from "rehab" and announcement of a grifting lolsuit to much negative backlash. It seems like he's gone super quiet about him and hasn't mentioned him since last time. I did collect these Mastodon posts though:

Jason has a convenient excuse to dismiss Economic Explained's video debunking urbanist lies by saying something about his previous videos were "poorly-researched fluff":

Really the mark of a guy willing to change his mind huh? At least we in this thread watch your videos before dismissing the bullshit contained therein.

Jason following Knowing Better and posting how many subscribers he's lost per video. Apparently he gains more than he loses so he doesn't care:

And finally, Jason complaining about Mastodon and it's alt-text autists. For a guy who seems to not care whenever people criticize him, how come he cares so much when some self-appointed janny retards on the Internet screech at him about MUH ALT TEXT or MUH SELF-PROMOTION?

my only hope is they do it to an overinflated semi tire and the blast sends them to kingdom come; and since I'm nice like that I don't even want them to go to hell, I just want them to have to go to purgatory where they have to drive for ten thousand years to get to the gates of heaven.

I still remember idiots doing that during the truckers protest. Good times. And a Trucker is a lot meaner if he sees you messing with his rig than the average Andy. If the tire doesn't get you, he will.

You know, these urbanists always talk about muh efficiency, but I've never seen exactly whom this efficiency is benefitting. I know the answer ends up boiling down to "the Kleptocrats who want to rule us as serfs," but who exactly do these retards think benefits in their imagination? Like, who is supposedly going to be in a better position because more people are taking the bus?

Because I don't think it's the environment, or at least they seemingly try to frame it as being broadly beneficial societally as well.

Misery loves company. These are the people who either are anxious about driving or they got drunk/high and got banned from driving. So everyone must now suffer on the bus with them

Well, they're self-centered narcissists so .... they obviously think it will benefit them somehow.

Since most of the EUaboos are in the USA, they think it will turn whatever shithole they live into Magical Europe HappyTown - at least that's how they start out.

Later as they get disenchanted and depressed about it all, because they're fat fucking reddit-tier incels, they want it just to make the happy people with families and cars suffer.

In other news it's hilarious watching these fucks SEETHE over that stupid florida brightline rail, and the proposed Vegas addition. They are pissed - dam I hope the peninsulaniggers DO build a high speed rail and make California look like a giant ball of faggots

I think the government should not force me to have to buy a $45,000 vehicle to get where I need to go.

Good news, you're not forced. You can move to-

My choice is to walk, ride a bike, or take transit and only spend ~ $1500 a year on mobility, that’s my budget.

Oh that's good for you, but didn't you literally just imply you were forced to own a car?

because the government is actually controlled by the car industry

Oh so we're now postulating grand conspiracy theories. Good to know.

I think a lot of government car mandate advocates are like

New neologism just dropped, "government car mandate" and the people who supposedly advocate for them. This despite not a single person unironically actually advocating for "car mandates", because nobody does that.

Misleading skewed image, here we go:

If you did this for Europe by country it would be covered with automobiles too, because even in the Netherlands the most common means of transportation to work is by car (only 65%, but still, it's the most common). Although by sub-region (like US county) it would likely be a different story, but I bet everywhere outside the Randstad still uses the car the most. Regardless, making an image based off the most common is misleading for this very reason.

It's also hilarious that this guy says New York City is "quite literally the last beacon of civilization" in the US. Ah yes, NYC, where shit like this happens on a frequent basis:

Jew slapfights with people on twitter over standard urbanist talking points. Nigga buy a motorcycle or scooter or something. I paid like $5k all in for mine (including safety gear) and insurance is $200 a year for full coverage (and I live in a super urban area). And this is for a BMW Motorrad, buy something actually practical and I'm sure you can go even cheaper. It both helps reduce traffic congestion and also is mega efficient as you can do 60+ mpg without even thinking. Eurofags, Poos, and Asians have this figured out.

That said they don't actually care about cost of transportation and are just using it as a bludgeon to make bicycles look a miniscule amount more attractive.

Him admitting that most of his audience has no children is probably the most truthful thing he's ever said. Meanwhile, he'll straight up lie to his audience, "muh work/life balance". What work? What life? You tard around, buy expensive food, and voice videos you hire other people to write for you.

5 seconds into the video: He accuses EE of being an "opinion piece wrapped in stock footage and editing"
20 seconds into the video: He starts voicing over stock footage.

You can't make this shit up.

Section 1: Economies of scale
Alan concedes that EE's explanation of economies of scale is basically correct, but then says the example is bad. Alan's chosen example, is of course, a fucking train.

After explaining the basic concept, EE went on to say why in certain situations, more scale does not reduce costs as much as needed. Alan proceeds to show how much he knows about economics, by completely ignoring these points and producing the following graph:


Section 2: China's high speed rail
EE cites China's high speed rail as an example of a project that did not get sufficiently cheaper due to scale. The evidence for this is nearly a trillion dollars of rail-related debt as of 2022.

Alan attempts to Deboonk this, by citing an article about how China's rail is totally cheap... problem is, the article is from 2014, nearly 8 years before.

He also makes an allusion to the idea that the USA has a successful (freight) rail network, making China's (highspeed) rail network a great idea. Two systems with drastically different purposes and operating requirements, but the lines look the same on a map, eh?

Perhaps trying to dislodge Xi's cock from his mouth, he decides to criticize China's high speed rail... for not having stations smack dab in the city centre. He says (and I am not making this up) that China's problem is that they aren't willing enough to displace homes and people to build shit.


Section 3: Induced Demand
He voices over stock footage again. It is the exact same footage as earlier.

The problem that econ man is assuming is that road use is elastic and it isn't linked to an inherent demand to commute to important places. Geographic places.

Alan demonstrates that he doesn't know what "elastic" means, because elastic means "responds to costs". The cost in question is travel time and fuel. By saying that demand is not elastic, Alan is claiming that more roads and easier driving would not increase quantity demanded. This is the exact opposite of the induced demand argument.

All is explained, because it turns out he doesn't actually know what "Induced Demand" is supposed to mean. He thinks congestion is caused by bottlenecks from narrow city streets, so wider highways don't do anything. This is once again a spectacular own-goal because if so, making a city have wider streets would fix that.

I think this man may actually be a 70IQ retard.

His solution, by the way, is to just shove a train into it because trains are big and therefore don't bottleneck.

Section 4: EconomicsExplained likes cars
EE confesses that he personally enjoys driving and prefers it over other forms of commute.

Alan argues against this by insisting that EE as a Youtuber doesn't have a commute and shouldn't be leaving the house as part of a daily routine. Alan is just telling on himself at this point.


TLDR he says all the shit that EE debunked, and is also somehow more authoritarian than the government of China

In other news it's hilarious watching these fucks SEETHE over that stupid florida brightline rail, and the proposed Vegas addition. They are pissed - dam I hope the peninsulaniggers DO build a high speed rail and make California look like a giant ball of faggots

Fisher had a livestrem awhile ago with one of the WTYP hosts (not the tranny) and talked that he had money on brightline going bankrupt and amtrak taking over the service within 10-15 years.

https://youtu.be/zQ6EIxlbUOk

Going off the top of my heard these specific urbanists seem to bash brightline for 4 reasons:

1. It's a private company and will inevitably start profits over serving the most amount of passengers
2. It's in Florida and Florida man bad
3. It's not grade separated and is mainly killing minorities
4. It's not electric and runs on diesel fuel which is bad

Brightline is a private company so there is almost no way to tell how much its making, or more likely losing although the CEO of there parent company fortress claimed that the railroad made a profit for the first time in march, there's probably a lot of* attached to that.

https://youtu.be/z9XSDChMeLY

But there is kind of a way to get a rough idea since they used activity bonds to finance the project so there required to regularly post financial statements and construction updates on emma.

https://emma.msrb.org/IssueView/Details/P1408183

Best bet is they will probably try to give it their all to make it profitable, realize that might never happen, and either run the service as bare bones as possible and or get as much government subsidies investments (i.e new stations like they did in boca and aventura) until the maturity date of the bonds since I believe there is a hell of a lot of financial and legal problems for brightline, fortress, and maybe softbank if they end up defaulting on them,

Section 3: Induced Demand
He voices over stock footage again. It is the exact same footage as earlier.

Alan demonstrates that he doesn't know what "elastic" means, because elastic means "responds to costs". The cost in question is travel time and fuel. By saying that demand is not elastic, Alan is claiming that more roads and easier driving would not increase quantity demanded. Which I am fairly certain is the exact opposite of what he intends to argue.

All is explained, because it turns out he doesn't actually know what "Induced Demand" is supposed to mean. He thinks congestion is caused by bottlenecks from narrow city streets, so wider highways don't do anything. This is once again a spectacular own-goal because if so, making a city have wider streets would fix that.

There was one point EE made I'm surprised fisher didn't have a full tism over,
In his video EE pointed out that the induced demand paper every urbanist likes to quote specifically mentions that having more public transit or less lanes does not decrees congestion, only direct congestion charges/pricing are able to do so.

Holy shit I can't stop laughing at this. What even is the point of this section? I can't even wrap around my head around what retarded point he's trying to make here, if any. Is he even taking any of this seriously? Is this some sort of 10,000 IQ joke? Does he even know how much incoherent bullshit he's spewing? I'm absolutely flabbergasted.
