Politically, the rank-and-file voters tend towards conservative values (although there is a hefty, and growing, liberal segment).
So imagine my surprise the other day when I read that Chattanooga is one of the first two cities in the U.S. slated to become one of the World Economic Forum’s “15-minute cities.”
As you surely know, the World Economic Forum (WEF) is Klaus Schwab’s globalist fantasy, the realization of which means we peons will ‘own nothing, and be happy.” In short, it’s Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, updated.

Sad, but funny at the same time.
Politicians giddy and excited to lure liberal tech companies and all that money, for all their tax revenue and all that development that the regular folks want no part of, but are wholly ignored. What does the regular know? As a politician what do I care, they’ll vote for me anyway?
Folks not paying attention to who they’re voting for and giving POS politicians, that happily sell them out, chance after chance after chance, because next time they’ll do better. They just need one more chance.
Folks not willing to give someone else a chance for fear of losing some scraps from the government so they can build some new bathrooms at the local park.
Knoxville and Nashville will be the next on the chopping block
IIRC someone posted a piece about folks in Oxford UK protesting their council push for the 15 minute city plans. Not surprised. More authoritarian control of your daily life and movements. 🖕
It’s being developed in my city as we speak.

15-minute open-air prison camps.
Your biochip, please.
15 minutes, eh?
From my days in the USAF, to prove you were fit, you had 15 minutes to walk/jog/run a mile and a half!
So, is this 15 minutes, on foot, by bicycle, by scooter, or by automobile?
How do you secure such a city?
So, IOW, communists want us going backwards in time.
As usual.
(Never mind all the Orwellian aspects of it.)
Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga boo-boo?
I visited that city a while ago and it is dead, like so many others cities in this country.
If it’s ever applied, this will backfire on elites.
If everybody lives near where they work, the potential for labor disputes flaring up into riots and uprisings increases.
If everyone shops at the store near them, shortages and price increases could likewise more easily flare up into violence.
But more likely perhaps, is a scaled-back version. “Liveable” communities that have shops for necessities near-by, but still allow people to work and shop outside the 15 minute walking radius.
Then they inform you that they meant to do that, while giving you the devil smirck.
Along with Gyorgy Schwartz!
Is Chattanooga a nice place to live? Nicer than Memphis even? I’ve never visited there.
15 minute cities are soviet cities.
They were not designed for citizen ease. They were designed to restrict citizen movement.
Agenda 21 design incorporates this strategy.
From January...

So then, a utopian vision results in a dystopian reality. Maybe.
The principles of domestic tranquility and common good could be exercised with little difficulty in a 15-minute travel parameter, but this would not play out well if there is draconian enforcement.
15-Minutes cities are most definitely to be added to the list backing importance of the 2nd Amendment. In fact, if the folks of Chattanooga do not make it necessary for their “leaders” to have armed and armored escorts, they do not deserve sympathy. Make the politicians afraid. Very afraid. Effing afraid.
It worked around the coal mines for centuries.
