@doyce New York seems to be doing much better than California cities from my time in both places.

I think that photo behind the text is the Moynihan train hall in Manhattan.

The alt text does not describe it, in case you are relying on that.

@aardrian @doyce Yes, I think so too. That place is pure chaos and the rest of the city is much better.

Utter chaos. And somehow I still prefer it to flying in and out.

@aardrian @doyce Definitely, it's still a much better experience

@doyce While governments at various levels have enacted the policies, the interests they are serving are corporate & plutocratic. Because if you eliminate public spaces that facilitate human interactions without a corporation profiting, then you need to pay to socialise, and that helps corporations' bottom line.

@doyce Moving to a place that still has a basic sufficiency of those things was a real eye-opener.

@kittylyst @doyce agreed, and whenever I visit the cities that suffer from this the contrast is really visible.
