The dialectical struggle of history has always, essentially, been a question of how to apply justice to matter. Take away matter and what remains is justice.

Not seattle exactly but i was at powells down in pdx last week and they had a big set of antique 1900s settler history texts called "From The Dalles to the Sea" and it made me laugh grimly

Rob Saka, the perfect embodiment of Seattle politics

quote:

City Councilmember-elect Rob Saka, a former Meta attorney who will represent West Seattle’s District 1 starting next year, sent a series of increasingly heated emails to Seattle Department of Transportation employees during 2021 and 2022 seeking the removal of a road divider that SDOT installed in front of his kids’ preschool. The divider was part of the RapidRide H project connecting Burien, White Center, and West Seattle to downtown.

The curb-like divider is a variation on a common traffic calming device known as a hardened centerline. The curb, which replaced a double yellow line, physically prevents northbound drivers from making an illegal left turn to access homes and businesses on the west side of the street, including a bilingual preschool called the Refugee and Immigrant Family Center. According to an April 2022 South Seattle Emerald story about the dispute, Saka’s two children attended the preschool as of last year.

In the email thread (reproduced in part here), which PubliCola obtained through a records request, Saka compared the mid-block traffic barrier to Trump’s border wall and said it was “triggering” and “severely traumatizing” to immigrants who “have faced significant trauma during their perilous journeys, including by navigating divisive structures and barriers designed to exclude lives in the US.”

that is some impressive special snowflake triggering, no doubt. how dare you impinge my inability to turn left. it is severely traumatizing for my people.

mostly I'm surprised that there is somewhere in the country that is willing to build actual traffic barrier infrastructure. I think I heard it on "well there's your problem" podcast that cement curbs and bollards are lost techniques and it rings sort of true. around me I see gentle driving reminders that are often ignored.

I live by a school and there were a row of those installed preceding a turn lane and within a week they were all flattened by drivers and then promptly removed entirely
