вынести идею на всеобщее обсуждение (To float an idea means to suggest something unusual or unexpected, with the objective of determining whether people like the idea or not. | To suggest something in order to gauge interest in it or others' perception of it. (The Free Dictionary) • What you’ve just said would seem to be not at all “anti-progressive.” Instead, you seem to be naming ever widening wealth inequality and late capitalism as the culprit. Yet I’ve noted when you’ve floated similar ideas when writing in The Tyee, you attract on social media all kinds of name-calling. People who say more and denser development is inherently a solution, and a progressive one, call you a NIMBY and all kinds of other names. (thetyee.ca) ART Vancouver) |
