[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He is paraphrasing the views of a segment of DC's population. He is not suggesting that this view is his.[/quote] Really? I'm not totally unsympathetic to his viewpoint, but he's made it clear here and in past columns the contempt he has for white millennials and gentrifiers. He's definitely expressing his own opinion.[/quote] It's not a contempt! It's a feeling of lose of many of the soulful feelings of the city. It's real. The city has changed, and it's not always for the better. The city used to be much more eclectic and caring. Not so much anymore.[/quote] I experienced some of that "much more eclectic and caring" feeling back in the late 80s/early 90s when I got mugged several times in DC. I'm glad that 14th St, downtown and other formerly high-crime areas are more vibrant and much safer than they were.[/quote]
