I always saw that episode less as a criticism of public transportation, but instead more of a commentary on the big and complicated "futuristic" transportation projects that take focus away from more sensible methods of transportation.
In more recent times, it could be a figure like Elon Musk peddling a hyperloop project with complicated and untested technology, instead of funding a better-established high speed train technology like those already common in China and Japan.

Yesterday, I posted an image of the #LorenzAttractor showing the evolution of three trajectories (shown in red, green and blue) starting close together. Here, I've made it into a little animation to show how the paths initially stay close to each other but after about a quarter of the duration plotted, they #diverge from each other irrevocably (i.e. become uncorrelated) but remain part of the #ChaoticAttractor.

The whole thing that these anti-USA/Israel cretins don't seem to understand, which really, really makes me question their actual interest in the well-being of Palestinians, is that protests need to garner support for your cause rather than to decrease it.

Desecrating memorials does NOT make you popular except among your own tribe which should already be supporting the cause you want more people to care about.

Those videos for sure, but the pictures of them supporting terrorists which can just be those Hamas headbands and then the rightwing trolls can associate all sorts of stuff to organizations that literally are calling for the death and destruction of Americans are the very worst since they can just go viral so easily for them.

Of course, I entirely acknowledge that it is well within their rights to burn an American flag just like it's legal to fly Nazi flags, but all patriotic Americans should denounce it.

We rightfully call out their side when they carry tiki torches waving swastikas so we also need to call out the people from our side that are taking the side of the terrorists calling for the death of America.

I agree with MVP Kamala Harris!

OFFICE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 July 25, 2024 

Statement by Vice President Kamala Harris 

Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protestors and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric. 

I condemn any individuals associating with the brutal terrorist organization Hamas, which has vowed to annihilate the State of Israel and kill Jews. Pro-Hamas graffiti and rhetoric is abhorrent and we must not tolerate it in our nation. 

I condemn the burning of the American flag, That flag s a symbol of our highest ideals as a nation and represents the promise of America. It should never be desecrated in that way. 

I support the right to peacefully protest, but let's be clear: Antisemitism, hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation.

As I said in the comments on his post, it's way past time for the Ds to hit back, and I'm happy to see it. I hope the Harris campaign continues this approach.
