An Urban Arrow cargo bike has nearly the same physical footprint as a Smart car. While the car is marketed as "tiny," the bike is often labeled as "huge" by those used to traditional bicycles. This irony highlights how much space we waste on bloated, car-centric infrastructure.

It is not believable because this is complete bullshit.
Trump: "Transgender for everyone! Bring your kids in, we're gonna change the sex of your child. Just send them our way. In some cases, like in Minnesota, they don't even tell the parents. Nobody believes it when I say it. They operate on the kid, they don't tell the parents. It's not believable."
