       Salvini said, in particular: “ I have a duty to protect the mobility of those who drive to work.” This is a recurring theme: people who work drive, people who drive work; the idea that many, many, many walk or cycle to work is silly; cycling is a hobby, something you do in the weekend for exercise or to take your children to the park.

       They link cycling to leisure, driving to work, and suddenly supporting cyclist and pedestrians makes you side with economic downturns. It’s a pretty simple rhetoric shortcut that fascists use over and over again.
