Just a glance at that guy's Twitter account will tell you a lot. He's extremely obsessed with his idea that Ward 3 is too white, and with bike lanes. He also thinks that homeless should be allowed to create tent encampments wherever they want, and the council candidate he was cheering for was against adding more police to the police force.

I've given up even engaging with people like that at this point. If you're in favor of tent cities and defunding the police, you're simply so far gone that it's going to be a waste of time to even try having a conversation.[/quote]

That’s not entirely correct.  The source of the "data" cited, with Cleveland Pk Smart Growth, is likely not a woke progressive.  He was national pollster for Trump and has other strong ties to MAGA world.   He backed an unsuccessful Ward-3 Council candidate because that candidate was staunchly pro-development as an ANC chair.   His claims in GGW like “designating Chevy Chase, or parts of it, as historic could permanently prevent it from being meaningfully racially or economically integrated” are not credible and should not be taken at face value; instead, they appear as simply a calculated argument to sell up-zoning and dense development in Chevy Chase and Ward 3 to a DC audience.
