Yea but Anti-Car Urbanists are for the most part supporting Urbanism because of empty promises by populists, not for legitimate pro-growth reasons.
“Politics should be disengaged from cultural in-group signaling” Too bad man, humans are tribal animals. You join the Solarpunk Commune tribe or the Ferd Fteenthousand Racecourse tribe.
Joking aside I agree with the thesis I just can’t help but feel like it’s hopeless and “if my aunt had wheels she’d be a bike” to speculate on “what if there was a large political movement that was exclusively pragmatic and realistic and people just ignored cultural pressure to conform to certain social norms that make otherwise practical ideas taboo?”
