This is the argument that is overlooked; break the car down to what it is.
Make it clear what it is.
Then show the people.
They will see the problem.
They may act or not.
But the sheet is off the elephant
[BREAKING] Scientists found that 99,5% of online debates about road safety, cycling, e-bikes or fatbikes follow the same dynamics.

It sounds like any kind of poor nation dictator state.
Because it has been run like one
Embezzlement
Cronyism
Corruption and mates running assets into the ground
Hollowing out public services
Silencing political opponents

Bleak and grinding for the people.
