[quote=Anonymous]Here at DCUM, the criticism of the newest wave of hipster gentrifiers has always been they're too weak-willed to stay in their "transitioning" neighborhoods a little while after they become parents. Rather than work hard to make the neighborhood more school-age-friendly, they bolt for the suburbs. So, the self-anointed "Prince" of Petworth did essentially the same thing by moving to a longtime white enclave in D.C.; perhaps he believes his blog can continue despite his latest carpetbaggery; we will see. But the criticism of him and his choices are appropriate, considering the context of longtime criticism of gentrifiers who do exactly the same thing. Pray tell, what makes the "Prince" so different that it is inappropriate to point out what looks to be his self-evident sameness? Lemmings gonna lemming, far as I can tell.[/quote]
