Utah governor buries right-wing conspiracist during ambush: 'Stop making stuff up' https://t.co/oeCdyVClce

The governor was accused of building a “smart city.”

So-called 'smart cities,' or '15-minute cities,' is the latest big-government boogeyman on the far-right," The Tribune's report stated. "The idea, developed by Carlos Moreno in 2010, is an urban design concept that aims to put everyday destinations for most people within 15 minutes of their homes," claiming that "the urban planning ideas are a Trojan horse developed by a shadowy cabal of global elites, including the World Economic Forum and the United Nations, who want to imprison people in a small area around their homes."

So convenience and the type of city most of humanity lived in before the 20th century automobiles-centric city, is now a conspiracy theory? (By the way, I’m fortunate to live where everything is about 15 minutes away. Yet I’m in the 4th largest city in the country. I spend most of my time in a small area around my home. It never occurred to me that was a conspiracy against my freedom of movement.)

These people are nuts 🥜.
