In all fairness they are kinda racist. We drive all over the black part and the white part tells us where to be. This might be one of there best arguement, I think we should Have this discussion
While I don't disagree, it looks like a big chunk of this money will go to consulting firms who will "evaluate" the impact these projects have on the neighborhoods.
While it sounds like a good idea, most likely they'll just draw the same conclusions that would've been made anyway, except now these consulting firms (likely owned by politicians family members) will make bank of the deal.
Classic scheme from the thieving Demonic Rats and the RINOs: use their office to highlight a "problem" (doesn't have to be real) and use money from the public purse to hire a "consulting firm" probably owned by the thief-in-office (hello conflict of interest). And then make bank while doing practically nothing.
Like how Bush Jr appointed Michael Chertoff as Secretary of Homeland Security. Who then said that airports should have body scanners. Only 2 companies were awarded contracts for the body scanners, and wouldn’t you know it, one of those companies was part of the consulting company Chertoff Group. 🤔
Do you know what future engineers are being taught about how to build a good road? They are being taught the roads need to be straight. Straight! This is literally homophobia. Fortunately now there is real leadership which is not afraid to confront those problematic issues.
Wow that's crazy. I mean just look at SF they have all sorts of curvy streets that are far from straight. And there doing just fine. I mean they have a giant bridge made out of Gold
It’s more systematic than that, there are still bigots that believe in cis-direction. They literally think bridges only have 2 directions. Science has pretty much basically proven that there are at least 72 different directions you can go on a bridge. These cis-dirs are science deniers and should be removed from society for their heresy.
If we can segregate the roads, we'll be that much closer to real segregation, which is what ever sane person wants. We can't live with these people. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. It's normal for a group to seek power at the behest of another. What's not normal is for the powerful to give up power. That's suicide.
Now now I'm sure they will close some main roads into commercial areas for justice. Last time I had to work in ny they were closing the highway thru Syracuse to kill off the downtown business.
My prediction, they get rid of the interstates that divide the cities and whites gentrify all the dirty shit hole blank and Hispanic neighborhoods, sending the blacks scattering … and then we laugh
Of course not, the democrats have said a million times they're simply too stupid to get an ID. So a driver's license would be like passing the bar test for them
What you call the tear down, is really an awakening. There's a lot of people who need to be shook awake. I'm not talking about the Nation, but that too. This is what happens when a nation is established by following God and then forgetting to include him in all we do.
The founders, almost exclusively, were Christian's. How many of us wish one of them were here today? I'd bet all of us.
Wait. They're calling them racist because they pass through predominantly black areas.
So they're going to destroy them and remove those neighborhood's access to highways?
Wouldn't that make things worse? If their excuse is their community doesn't offer enough opportunities, they literally have a road to opportunity right there. And they want to destroy it to make leaving the region even harder.
Just to provide a little bit of Central NY knowledge here - Interstate 81 in Syracuse is a disaster. There have been talks for over a decade on how to reconstruct this highway and no progress has been made. Destroying it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
I must agree, I 81 in Syracuse does suck. I am suprised that Bootyfudge didn't bring up Hershey Highway I would think he would want money to improve that one.
New Orleans is such a sad representation of the country, it could be such a beautiful city yet last time I was there there was a literal little Africa gun battle in the most prominent street, a corpse was rotting in view of the public in a collapsed building, and beautiful buildings are crumbling and decaying.
It's so sad, because it could be such a nice city. I hear that the Chinese may be exploring viral warfare that can target particular races; would sure be a shame if they used that in America. I bet there are some people who would be more than willing to just let China take over internationally if the tradeoff was them deploying something like that and just left us alone.
Remember in 1984 how Orwell describes that the government would just make an surplus of boots for the sake of making something, and just destroy the surplus boots they made for the sake of creating the job of destroying surplus boots, and then say there was a boot shortage, so on and so on?
The Democrats have brought us here to 1984. We are here, now. It's not "on the way." It's now.
They are planning to tear down the highways to make room for government rail. It is all part of their battle to eliminate owned property. No highways, no need for a car. You will ride the rail when they say you can. When they swoop in to buy up all the propery that they force landlords to foreclose on, you will rent from government. You will own nothing and you will like it. Good thing they took all our guns first...
It makes sense when you realize the person who wrote the bill lost a debate to a slab of concrete once so now all highways are racist nazi biggots to them.
Make concrete highways great again! Also the use of salt to melt ice is counter intuitive. Crumbles roads and fucks up the ecosystem. ffs lavish asshoes have heated tile floors, the same tech could be used to melt roads without salt
In an effort to what they thought would appease race relations, these fucking lunatics are actually just setting back race relations decades. I hope people realize how whacked these nutjobs are and don't fall for this crap.
The only ones pushing this bs are the fat white karens who sit behind a desk all day
Highway is moved. Old buildings get gentrified and becomes cool new neighborhood for hipster white kids. Rents increase. Blacks forced to move out because they can’t afford to live there. Old public assistance apartments knocked down. IKEA and crate and barrel move in. White shopping enclave. Racism solved I guess...
Hey, we can talk about infrastructure projects that were specifically meant to split the black community from money making society. But these movements that don’t include any study or any public input are horseshit. Just start suing now because there plan now is to do and assume any objection is racist. Fuck them and fuck any piece of shit that is benefitting. Believe me, this has nothing to do with the betterment of anyone.
They are basically saying minorities are too stupid to use, build or appreciate roads thus whites must blast themselves back to the stone age to accommodate them
Liberals really are for uncivilization... And are the REAL racists
So black people have elevated above 'equality' with Whites, and are now ascended to the level of the Endangered Species Act, where wherever they simply happen to live is now totally off-limits
it just came to me - hehe, yes i'm slow - the whole "environment" talk - the sole purpose is to be used as a scapegoat - when out quality of life will start falling starting now - from all they institutional stealing they're implementing now - scapegoat to "explain" why we have to "tighten the belt" - it's necessary, to save the planet!
" Interstate 81 in Syracuse, New York, as two problematic highways going through black neighborhoods they would support destroying."
81 does not go through any neighborhoods. part of it is above another local road, and part of it winds through industrial area which is not residential. in fact, it goes past very few houses. taking the highway down would not change anything regarding to residences.
*a few dangerous merges. They are already planning to re do it, and can't decide between a plan that eminent domains many operating businesses, and the plan that eminent domains 4 empty buildings. Involvement of the Biden administration will not make this better.
I suppose it is more difficult to carjack and murder people when they are bypassing dangerous neighborhoods on the highway. How will these poor people enrich themselves by taking cars from racist white people???
DeBlasio and Co. have been talking about demolishing the BQE for a few years now. I don't think he is capable of understanding how much of a logistical disaster that would be. The BQE/I-278 is the main commercial artery through Brooklyn and Queens, one of the only highways in the area that allow commercial traffic. All it would do is force semis onto the clogged local streets, which already have reduced capacity because of bike and bus lanes.
Look, China doesn’t even to waste ordinance destroying American infrastructure, their dementia addled puppet and his incompetent diversity hire administration will do it for them!
Florida pedes, particularly my Tampa pedes, if this happens in our area, that's 275. Got at least 3 junctures in those target areas. More than likely more. Guaranteed impassable.
Was the Claiborn Expressway built by Democrats or something? Makes me think of the beginnings of Cental Park when a bunch of Democrats used eminent domain to forcibly remove a thriving community of free African American community in New York City (1853 - before the Civil War). Maybe they should tear down Central Park too.. obviously it's racist.
I read the whole article. I still don't understand how a highway can be racist. I know it can't, but does anyone here actually understand why Democrats think it's racist?
I think they’re doing this because they’re intentionally and methodically destroying the USA. Not sure if that’s nuts or not, depends on the perspective I guess.
In all fairness they are kinda racist. We drive all over the black part and the white part tells us where to be. This might be one of there best arguement, I think we should Have this discussion

While it sounds like a good idea, most likely they'll just draw the same conclusions that would've been made anyway, except now these consulting firms (likely owned by politicians family members) will make bank of the deal.
Consulting and think tanks are among the biggest problems in this country
Plz consult with us before coming to conclusions like that
You are so right. And everyone dont really see it. I feel like i live in a movie man. 😧
Classic scheme from the thieving Demonic Rats and the RINOs: use their office to highlight a "problem" (doesn't have to be real) and use money from the public purse to hire a "consulting firm" probably owned by the thief-in-office (hello conflict of interest).

Fuck bush
and it will take them 10 years to discuss this non issue, theyre just stalling to run america to the ground
Just more theft from working class tax payers, none of whom support any of the Xiden regime's agenda. It's string arm robbery.
EIS statements can cost more than the actual steel and cement these days.
Do you know what future engineers are being taught about how to build a good road? They are being taught the roads need to be straight. Straight! This is literally homophobia. Fortunately now there is real leadership which is not afraid to confront those problematic issues.
Wow that's crazy. I mean just look at SF they have all sorts of curvy streets that are far from straight. And there doing just fine. I mean they have a giant bridge made out of Gold
Blingbling
Fo sho homie keep it reel
My street identifies as a washboard.
It’s more systematic than that, there are still bigots that believe in cis-direction. They literally think bridges only have 2 directions. Science has pretty much basically proven that there are at least 72 different directions you can go on a bridge. These cis-dirs are science deniers and should be removed from society for their heresy.
Plus you need an ID to legally drive. Don’t they know how racist that is? Driver suppression.
Thats ok, much like Michael Jackson, the blackness of highways fades over time.
If we can segregate the roads, we'll be that much closer to real segregation, which is what ever sane person wants. We can't live with these people. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. It's normal for a group to seek power at the behest of another. What's not normal is for the powerful to give up power. That's suicide.
I was just trying to bring light here you got to serious for me. Sometimes we have to just LAUGH my friend.
WTF is "environmental justice"?
Payoffs to pedophiles, commies, and bureaucrats.
Looks like I repeated myself there a few times but the point remains.
Now now I'm sure they will close some main roads into commercial areas for justice. Last time I had to work in ny they were closing the highway thru Syracuse to kill off the downtown business.
Communist speak for kill whitey and take all of his wealth.
Communism.
It's all just communism.
and international jewry
That's what I said
He said that
Taking money from whites and giving to browns, overseen by Jews.
My prediction, they get rid of the interstates that divide the cities and whites gentrify all the dirty shit hole blank and Hispanic neighborhoods, sending the blacks scattering … and then we laugh
Even through they only scatter because of the leftist property taxes that go up after people improve things.
They don’t use highways?
They take private planes and helicopter rides while lecturing us on how cars destroy the environment.
I’m talking about the people that live near these highways. They don’t use them?
Of course not, the democrats have said a million times they're simply too stupid to get an ID. So a driver's license would be like passing the bar test for them
☝
is this build back better in action?
oh believe me, it'll get better than this
We don't even need to pay for demolition. In unrelated news, when are the George Floyd verdict riots starting?
What's the over/under on how many cities burn?
Only the beginning of the tear down friend
What you call the tear down, is really an awakening. There's a lot of people who need to be shook awake. I'm not talking about the Nation, but that too. This is what happens when a nation is established by following God and then forgetting to include him in all we do.
The founders, almost exclusively, were Christian's. How many of us wish one of them were here today? I'd bet all of us.
Gotta destroy back better before they can not build back better
They will prevent people from moving to red states
As a resident of a state that regularly sees Californistan refugees immigrating: good
Hey now, some of us would actually be a positive in your communities.
In fact, having lived under communist rule, we're about as dedicated as any Patriots to defeating this plague on humanity.
Wait. They're calling them racist because they pass through predominantly black areas.
So they're going to destroy them and remove those neighborhood's access to highways?
Wouldn't that make things worse? If their excuse is their community doesn't offer enough opportunities, they literally have a road to opportunity right there. And they want to destroy it to make leaving the region even harder.
Things that make you go hmmm
Black people aren't smart enough to
get an IDuse a road.Stop trying to apply logic.
Why stop there when we all know every roadway is racist for being black
That's places that use white concrete over black asphalt..it's called white topping
Just to provide a little bit of Central NY knowledge here - Interstate 81 in Syracuse is a disaster. There have been talks for over a decade on how to reconstruct this highway and no progress has been made. Destroying it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
Was about to bring up ol i81, glad I saw your comment before writing an essay
Syracuse is probably the most rotten corrupt place in our country
I must agree, I 81 in Syracuse does suck. I am suprised that Bootyfudge didn't bring up Hershey Highway I would think he would want money to improve that one.
I wonder if that is the real motivation. Destroy disastrous and high cost of maintenance roads in the name of "muh racism".
New Orleans isn’t really all that segregated. For better or worse, a mansion on st Charles is always within a quarter mile of numerous crackhouses
And the city has destroyed its own roads, thank you very much
Sounds like Detroit.
New Orleans is such a sad representation of the country, it could be such a beautiful city yet last time I was there there was a literal little Africa gun battle in the most prominent street, a corpse was rotting in view of the public in a collapsed building, and beautiful buildings are crumbling and decaying.
This is any given day in New Orleans
It's so sad, because it could be such a nice city. I hear that the Chinese may be exploring viral warfare that can target particular races; would sure be a shame if they used that in America. I bet there are some people who would be more than willing to just let China take over internationally if the tradeoff was them deploying something like that and just left us alone.
Yup. Breitbart is a shameful rag. Andrew would not be happy.
I-81 is shitty but it's not racist. How is it fake news.
Remember in 1984 how Orwell describes that the government would just make an surplus of boots for the sake of making something, and just destroy the surplus boots they made for the sake of creating the job of destroying surplus boots, and then say there was a boot shortage, so on and so on?
The Democrats have brought us here to 1984. We are here, now. It's not "on the way." It's now.
And its only going to get worse unless we fight back
No, they're criminals, and this is money laundering, slush funds, payoffs and mafia control.
How about not segregating neighborhoods based on color? Isn't that racist?
As long as people are still allowed to move away from neighborhoods that become “dangerous” the result will always be self-segregating.
Which raises another question. Why is it that only one race on Earth simply can’t make it if “segregated” from other races?
They are planning to tear down the highways to make room for government rail. It is all part of their battle to eliminate owned property. No highways, no need for a car.

Make concrete highways great again! Also the use of salt to melt ice is counter intuitive. Crumbles roads and fucks up the ecosystem. ffs lavish asshoes have heated tile floors, the same tech could be used to melt roads without salt
In an effort to what they thought would appease race relations, these fucking lunatics are actually just setting back race relations decades. I hope people realize how whacked these nutjobs are and don't fall for this crap.
The only ones pushing this bs are the fat white karens who sit behind a desk all day
Soon you will realize they WANT to set back race relations.
Socialism 101

Old public assistance apartments knocked down. IKEA and crate and barrel move in. White shopping enclave. Racism solved I guess...
I'm getting really tired of everything in existence suddenly being racist.
The highways were there FIRST
I think this is great. It'll make road trips safe again. Won't be breaking down in Congo.
Hey, we can talk about infrastructure projects that were specifically meant to split the black community from money making society. But these movements that don’t include any study or any public input are horseshit. Just start suing now because there plan now is to do and assume any objection is racist.

Think of sll the illegals they could house under those highways.
They are basically saying minorities are too stupid to use, build or appreciate roads thus whites must blast themselves back to the stone age to accommodate them

The perfect hustle to wash money
Societal AIDS
What is their real motivation for destroying the highways?
Collect $500M to destroy highway. Pay contractor $1M to destroy highway, pocket $499M.
developer friend buys up property in the shitty area, makes a ton of money because it doesn't have a highway going thru it anymore.
Communism
How can roads be racist? Next thing they’re going to ban for being rasisis will be air and oxygen
I suppose it is more difficult to carjack and murder people when they are bypassing dangerous neighborhoods on the highway. How will these poor people enrich themselves by taking cars from racist white people???
Not a penny are going to those highways most likely
true. So much federal money gets laundered, funneled, and siphoned off to fraud, special interest groups, and big donors it's not even funny
So blue cities are going to make traffic more miserable for their constituents?
Honestly we need to let liberals be punished by leftists like this until they start "getting it."
DeBlasio and Co. have been talking about demolishing the BQE for a few years now. I don't think he is capable of understanding how much of a logistical disaster that would be.

Hopefully it will help keep the apes with their own.
Look, China doesn’t even to waste ordinance destroying American infrastructure, their dementia addled puppet and his incompetent diversity hire administration will do it for them!
$20b worth of virtue signaling. Glad I just paid my federal tax bill this year
Florida pedes, particularly my Tampa pedes, if this happens in our area, that's 275. Got at least 3 junctures in those target areas. More than likely more. Guaranteed impassable.
Isolate and contain. Cut them out of society and isolate.
Should we repair the potholes and roads? Nah, just demolish some highways and build new ones because of some "injustice."
that's racist
Was the Claiborn Expressway built by Democrats or something? Makes me think of the beginnings of Cental Park when a bunch of Democrats used eminent domain to forcibly remove a thriving community of free African American community in New York City (1853 - before the Civil War). Maybe they should tear down Central Park too.. obviously it's racist.
If they try to touch I-81,the good news is the minecraft-ing will be done for us by the fury of trucking lobbyists that will rise up overnight
Tell liberals breathing is racist
I read the whole article. I still don't understand how a highway can be racist. I know it can't, but does anyone here actually understand why Democrats think it's racist?
This is one way to do it:
https://www.nycurbanism.com/blog/2020/7/28/robert-moses-low-parkway-bridges
I think they’re doing this because they’re intentionally and methodically destroying the USA. Not sure if that’s nuts or not, depends on the perspective I guess.
So, these highways are racist because they were built in minority neighborhoods?
Or did the minorities move next to the highways because that's where property is cheaper?
Funny that it’s called an “infrastructure” bill when only 5% goes towards infrastructure.
I would say it won't pass but I have no hope left for this country
Now we know why black people often hate asians, yellow stripes on the road telling them where they can and can't go.
Dang racist road markings.
