I am a daily commuter cyclist and I do believe you are overreaching. The user to whom you replied, should be allowed to lie. Their lies should be countered with arguments, not censorship. Besides, lying is not against the rules of this community.

Sorry for your situation.

I hardly think limiting human travel to foot, horse or bike (until we can get clean energy to scale - and those efforts will require the use of chemstry and other poisons) will be a net benefit to you or anyone else.

The reality is that a world without modern tech like poisonous cars, poisonous planes, poisonous packaging, poisonous fertilizers, and factory farms will support somewhere between 1 and 3 billion people.

Do the people in this group get to pick which of the 8 billion currently alive people get to not starve?

My position is that bike lanes are great, where they make sense.

I am down with trying them on for size to see if they help.

My city is full of them, but the greenways get used to a large extent but the on most of the the rest you will see one bike every six months.

Furthermore, when you do see bikers on those roads with bike lanes, they ride out in traffic anyway because it is their right and how do you put it? Oh yeah, fuck cars.

This group is hurting your cause not helping.

We actually have a female black mayor (much beloved by all) who is smart enough not to touch them.
