A comic depicting a character wearing an outfit with the French flag colors, waiting to cross the street. A caption first reads: "Crossing the street in Paris: 1- Wait for your turn." The character is shown waiting as cars pass and the pedestrian crossing sign shows a red silhouette standing. The caption continues: "2- Cross." The pedestrian crossing sign has turned to a green silhouette walking, and the character is walking across the pedestrian crossing. The caption then resets to: "Crossing the street in California: 1- Press a button to ask for permission to cross." The character, now waiting to cross in front of a bigger, busier road, presses a button on the pedestrian crossing sign pole. The pedestrian crossing sign displays a red hand. A voice coming from the button shouts: "Wait!" The caption continues: "2- Wait." The character is shown waiting for 3 continued panels as the sign still displays the red hand, the road is still continuously busy with cars, and the "Wait!" voice repeats aggressively. Eventually, looking a bit defeated, the character thinks: "I wonder if I'll get to cross someday..."

A continuation of the comic in the previous image. After a long blank of waiting, the pedestrian crossing sign finally turns to a white silhouette walking, with a light chime ringing. The character, looking tired, starts crossing, thinking "finally"... In the next panel, immediately, the pedestrian crossing sign changes to a countdown starting from 20, with the chime now sounding aggressive, startling the character, who starts running as the countdown continues, thinking: "What do you mean, 20 seconds to cross? I had to wait, like, 4 minutes!"

I guess I should also mention it's lucky IF we get sidewalks and pedestrian crossing here in the first place huh...

How civilized was the US supposed to be again?

Wistikles | Indian author Abhishek Banerjee says the West isn’t one economy—US leads in income growth and high-paying jobs, while Canada & Europe prioritize welfare and work-life balance.
