It’s all hyper focusing on the psychotic minority of people who drive into Manhattan and how hard it is for them, despite having commutes that could easily be done with public transit. There’s a scant few soundbites from strap hangers, the people who are the vast majority of commuters. One of the networks had a long interview with a tourist from Philadelphia who drove in for a Broadway show. She’s going on about how tough it’ll be for commuters, like, shut the fuck up, you are out of your element, you don’t live here, you don’t work here, stop opining on things you know nothing about.
I fucking hate this about local news. "Small business owners small business owners small business owners sma--" No, shut the fuck up. I do not care about "small" business owners. It's such a tiny portion of the population, wedged between the actual 1% and the working class who actually do those jobs.
Nobody gives a shit about some chud's car dealership or antique store. Sales happening at Walmart have more impact on people's lives than some broken window at a local artisanal firewood shop in downtown Fucking Nowhere, Arkansas.
Where is that site tagline about “I will never be friends with a small business owner”
