When words like "woke" "DEI" or any of the other ones adjacent to them are use to express displeasure of any kind I immediately lose interest in what they have to say.
Muchlike i do with people that blame [insert thing they don't like] on [insert political ideology they don't agree with] instead of coming up with, you know, facts and reasoning or something.
Tangent, but is "bikers" the right word? I use bicyclists or cyclists or bike riders for people who pedal. To me "bikers" ride motorcycles, which means they use the car lanes and burn fuel, although their individual politics might be DEI.
Could just be me, though.

Bike lanes are weak and unmanly because they don't contribute to our demise as a species.
My bad. *Un-ADHDs my brain. Reenables my autobiographical memory. Activates my visual imagination.
Can I have my bike lane now?
I will receive a lot of downvotes, but I remember the time when words were used to inspire thoughts that inspire emotions. Today they go straight to emotions
Proving that the fossil fuel hordes are the ones dividing people.
By far, most cyclists I see are white men. Are white men the reason DEI is a problem?
In a roundabout way...sure.
I betcha the money will be moved around and eventually discovered with a few million missing.
What the fuck kind of car infrastructure can you buy for less than $2B? Duffy is a virtue signalling shithead.
