  • Freut mich, dass Du wieder Spaß am lesen hast. Aber ich versteh nicht so ganz, was sich geändert hat. Ist es einfach nur die Gamification? Du liest, um das Spiel zu gewinnen, und dass Du dabei was lernst ist ein willkommener Nebeneffekt?

    Weil Du historische Sachbücher erwähnst: Ich kann Stille Jahre in Gertlauken von Marianne Peyinghaus empfehlen. Eine junge Lehrerin wird 1941 von Köln in die tiefste Pampa nach Ostpreußen versetzt und muß da den Mangel verwalten und am Ende fliehen. Es passiert eigentlich kaum etwas, aber es ist schön geschrieben und ich fand es unglaublich interessant, ein bißchen in den Kopf und den harten Alltag von einem jungen, unpolitischen Menschen aus dieser Zeit reinzugucken.



  • You misunderstand me. I agree that being a pedestrian or cyclist should be more convenient and safer, and I don’t care if that means car drivers are inconvenienced by whatever it is that needs to be done to achieve that goal.

    But you are inconveniencing car drivers while also making the situation worse for pedestrians, cyclists and everyone else. What you are doing has no positive effects for anyone, except maybe you feeling righteous for a moment.

    Spoiler

    “beschlagnaderungsorientiert” sounds like a dangerous words from the funniest joke in the world.



  • Deciding what is good for random strangers and then forcing them to enjoy whatever it is you came up with doesn’t sound like very good idea.

    And how is this helping your situation? Breaking and accelerating increases noise and pollution. If cars have to spend more time on the street instead of being at their destination, they either need more road space or they spend more time in traffic jams that, again, increase noise and pollution. Cars are the least likely to be involved in accidents when they are cruising, so you are also making your city less safe.

    Just to be clear: I’m absolutely in favour of banning cars in cities, but you are making the already bad situation worse for everyone.
