Gender-equal snow removal procedure leaves stockholm paralyzed - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Kecske;51405437]What the fuck Roads have much larger surface area and have a more extensive network, of course you need more effort to clear them. Imagine having an ambulance stuck in the snow just because bike paths were priority.[/QUOTE] There is actually a video gone viral of an ambulance stuck in this snowfall [editline]21st November 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=CarnolfMeatla;51406729]People tend to stop walking on the sidewalk and take a motorized vehicle when the weathers goes really bad, so why focus on clearing up sidewalks first?[/QUOTE] Because of men. It always boils down to the fact that it's men. You have to be genuine idiot to think of the term "gender-equal snow removal", but hey, we're progressive here in Sweden!! [editline]21st November 2016[/editline] This is a result of letting Miljöpartiet (green) decide on anything. Not too long ago, they were infiltrated by islamists, their spokeswoman got fired because of a scandal indirectly caused by the OTHER spokesman (who is still left), they're essentially radical feminists, they voted no regarding a continuance of the construction of a highway around Stockholm so that the traffic can flow better instead of going [U]through[/U] Stockholm - higher emissions, bad traffic flow, noise. Now they're down to what, 2% of all votes and STILL decide on major issues. All in all, a fucking terrible party [editline]21st November 2016[/editline] There's another picture gone viral where the snow on the pavement had been plowed first. That's great, feminism yay. Shortly after, the street was plowed, and all of that snow ended up on the pavement. Pretty funny. Gender-equal snow removal.

[QUOTE=!LORD M!;51407252]This is what radical feminism in high places does, fuck shit up. Fuck these gay ass politicians. The Left-Green is a disaster for the country.[/QUOTE] Left-Green is a disaster for ANY country.

Without the SJW dickweeds this world would be an empty and uneventful place.

for what it's worth, they manage to make both genders suffer in equal measure.

Gender equal snow removal... Are we sure this is the real world and I didn't get transported to some bizzaro dimension where everything is satire come to life?

i think green is more important here than gender. probably passed to encourage people to walk/bike placesinstead of driving. still dumb though.

[quote]The city government is intent on putting as much civic energy into clearing bike paths and sidewalks used by environmentally- and fitness-minded women as into the roads frequented by male-dominated motor vehicle traffic.[/quote] This isn't about equality, it's about some women thinking they are better than men.

[QUOTE=Amakir;51405538]I'm in Stockholm right now and there's no snow here.[/QUOTE] Yeah, the snow melted a while ago.

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;51406712]makes sense to me to plow rural roads before urban sidewalks. making a trudge through the snowy sidewalks to the bus stop is annoying and not fun but far safer and easier to do than attempting to drive rural roads covered in snow. if you need supplies and you live in a city, it is easier to manage getting to a store even if the sidewalks are all covered. if you live out in the sticks and need supplies, you likely will have a dangerous journey if there is much snow on the roads. say you get into a bad accident, it could be hours before anyone even sees you've crashed let alone receive help from an ambulance. if you slip and fall on a sidewalk in the city, you're far more likely to get help quicker.[/QUOTE] Pretty much this, I don't see why gender studies should have such an impact on infrastructures that they would endanger people's lives. If you want people on the sidewalk to have an easier time, just spend more funding on snow clearing, don't divert work from clearing roads when those are more critical for emergency services.

[QUOTE=Erfly;51405418]So am I reading this correctly: the pavement/sidewalk was seen as mainly for women while the roads were seen as 'male-dominated'?[/QUOTE] How incredibly sexist of them.
