People who viciously complain online about E-scooters in their cities are greatly inflating the inconvenience they personally endure as a result
My city recently approved a pilot program for Lime scooters. Less than 500 scooters were deployed in May and I have never seen such rampant NIMBYism over something that is in no way causing the overall quality of life to drop for the majority of its citizens. In the comments section of every article about scooters in any city in the world there are people calling for extreme measures against riders, scooter companies, and local governments.
The majority of those complaining are afraid of change and afraid to use them because they're "millennial garbage". These people are simply complaining for complaining's sake and contribute nothing of themselves. Oh and they drive their shitty cars everywhere, and far more recklessly than scooter riders.

I mean the only thing that need changing is that it needs to not be a crime to accidentally hit people riding them.
