This is what malicious compliance looks like (sub-editor handed repugnant article: "hmm, I wonder what photo I can pair with this to undermine it …")

To save everyone else the work, I've located the original. It's from Adobe Stock, by someone known only as "dantada", and tagged 2006, which is presumably the year when it was taken.

Amusingly, the stock image is a fair way down the #NewYorkPost article. The generated montage has skipped over some images of already pedestrianized school roads, 14th Street buses, and suchlike.
I have no idea, incidentally, who the random Stacey Rauch person is that the #NewYorkPost quotes at such length, nor why xyr opinions are given such prominence.
Gabrielle Fahmy has been quoting Rauch as xyr main opinion on #NewYorkCity traffic since at least June 2025, and possibly longer (I didn't check very far back.), though.
Rauch was also opposed back then (months before Mandami was elected — before even the primary) to the busway on 34th Street.
@cstross Paris hates cars so much that now their emergency services get through much faster https://www.reddit.com/r/fuckcars/comments/14bvd9y/in_paris_emergency_response_times_have_fallen/
@cstross It's the Murdoch Post; I'm more inclined to blame stupidity than malice.
Then again, they may be right-wing reactionaries but New York Post employees still have to deal with New York traffic.
