[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]YIMBY's all seem to be the same person: downwardly mobile millennial white guy who feels entitled to live anywhere they want despite not being able to afford it, has a lot of issues about growing up in upper class suburbs and arrogantly believes that either everyone wants what they want or should have what they want them to have.

As with anything, women and minorities that adopt these viewpoints get promoted in media, but it's just window dressing for these incel white dudes.[/quote]

Nope. Try again.[/quote]

Yep, I noticed a lot of the "neighbors" testifying at ANC meetings were quite young  yuppies who'd just had a kid or were about to have a kid and didn't feel like they had enough space in their apartment in the neighborhood they felt entitled to live in. Do they not realize that high density, building more apartments, is not going to bring down the price of the next level/size home they want? Also, have they not heard of starter homes?? I lived in cramped dwellings with my first child for years as a trade off for location. It's a thing.[/quote]
