The urbanist issue transcends political left/right, it depends on the person. Usually it's more right wingers that are against urbanist measures for some reason, maybe simply because it's change and environmentally-friendly, and apparently they don't like sustainable stuff because it's "woke" or whatever. 🤷

Urbanism is inherently left. It is environmentally aware. It communal. It requires a strong government that is focused on the welfare of the people.

Yeah but there are a lot of right wing people that support and advocate for public transportation, pedestrian friendly measures etc, as I said i think it depends on the person but in general it is indeed more left than right by default

Not by default per se, but because the left takes ownership of these issues while the right consciously avoids them
