You think people built entire highways just because they wanted the most inefficient and expensive way to screw over some deer? No fucking shit all this infrastructure is for driving.
Get back to me when you have mandatory vacation time, universal healthcare, universal college-level education, universal pre-k, family leave, modern public transportation, non-crumbling infrastructure, climate-friendly policies, etc, etc.
NJ offers free community college, they’re working on universal preschool but it varies district to district (my district is about to move it to thee years old), NJ Transit trains are built in Germany, so that’s something right? We are working on offshore wind farms but the Dutch company backed out (and to be fair the economy is a shit show and I get it and I won’t point fingers). NJ is pretty much as progressive as it gets in the US, which is why I referred to it, tongue in cheek, as the Europe of America.
Some of the US is trying, and the amount of unjustified shit reddit, and now Lemmy, throw indiscriminately at the US is foolish. To suggest Mississippi and Vermont are the same is just not true, but that’s the vibe I get when I scroll through “America Bad” after “America Bad” post.
There’s no reason for people to be up on their high horse when we’re all a decade away from collapse. Let’s be friends and joke with one another. Sometimes all you got is jokes.
Quite a common feature in Europe. Gives the animals safe passage over busy roads.
More or less safe. Predators often camp these choke points for obvious reasons.
Fucking campers…
It’s a legitimate strategy!
I read pedesterians often camp these choke points. I was picturing hobo joe sitting there to catch a passing rabbit or deer for a good meal.
…narrated by David Attenborough.
Fucking scrubs, can’t hunt without getting an unfair advantage.
I’ve heard that makes the spot real popular with sparkly vampires.
not just that but it saves human lives as well by reducing animal collisions.
And the true motive bubbles to the surface. Drivers must be prioritized at all costs.
Edit: damn y’all really salty, ask yourself what the chances are they would have built this if only wildlife benefitted and maybe you’ll see my point

No I thought they built highways because they wanted the most inefficient and expensive way to get around.
You must be fun at parties.
Loool gottem
Common in New Jersey too. Were essentially Europe of America.
Well that explains the smell!
(I know very little about Europe or New Jersey)
“Essentially” is doing SOOOO much work there (for anyone not from America).
Hey, we’re trying, just as hard as my “essentially” is.
Wouldn’t that be California?
You mean the New Jersey of the West Coast?
