"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?

I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

Mind giving an example of such a city? Not like I’d be able to move now, but one never knows.

Just watch the YouTube channel Not Just Bikes. He not only shows you examples of such cities, but goes into great detail explaining why their design works—and what flaws they have.

Not European, but most Japanese and Korean cities are very walkable. With trains or busses, it can occasionally be easier to get around than by car

The Not Just Bikes channel has a lot of videos. Specifically in relation to your question, start with The Gym of Life .
