[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] As with anything else that would like to bill itself as a social movement... urbanists or YIMBYs or housing activists or whatever they want to call themselves would have a lot more people on their team if they weren't so hypocritical and abrasive. Some of them are well-meaning civic-minded youth who would like more bike lanes and transit options and more bite-sized apartments for urban living. But then they name call everyone who disagrees with them as a NIMBY, and a fair number of them it's clear all they really want to do is make money off flipping their home into a duplex.[/quote] I have heard much more abrasive rhetoric from (yes it is convenient shorthand) NIMBYs.[/quote]
