How about you stop advocating for using the coercive power of the state to ban harmless speech or things you simply dislike? If a property owner wants to allow billboards on their building, they have every right to do so.


> harmless

It's not harmless, so your objection is irrelevant.


It is harmless - you don't like the aesthetic so your scale of "harm" is irrelevant.


I just went through some of your comment history, and it strikes me as interesting that you very recently said:

"It's easy to spot political tribalism - just reference the comments here. They ultimately misrepresent, and have never tried to understand, their opposition's political position. It's kind of sad because it allows them to be manipulated by propaganda"

This is exactly what you just did by fabricating knowledge of my aesthetic taste. I hope this fact is as intriguing to you as it is to me.


> you don't like the aesthetic so

Who says I don't like the aesthetic? I can like the aesthetic of something and also acknowledge the harm it causes. It's kinda weird that your response is to make things up about me here.


Billboards are a safety issue.
