[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nimby's gonna nimby, all day, every day. Y'all are hilarious.[/quote] Of course, we are the voice of reason. You seem to be under the impression that YImBYs are doing something other than crying their big boy and girl tears. Wah Wah, we can’t stamp our feet and get everything we want. You really should the fact that people are laughing at you, not with you.[/quote] Are you a parody account? Please tell me you are. lol. You all have no idea how few people actually support your NIMBY ideas, do you? 30 people showing up at a "community input" meeting means nothing. We elected pro-growth people, and it will happen. Get over it. You lose.[/quote] We elected people who don’t seem to know the first thing about growth. Despite all of their claims about being pro-growth, they’ve delivered job losses and the slowest housing growth since World War II. Everyone loses. I don’t get why the YIMBYs keep supporting people who repeatedly deliver such poor outcomes. The YIMBYs are hyper focused on inputs (ie bike lanes, master plans, etc) but never demand outputs. [/quote] The YIMBYs are hyper focused on an aesthetic utopian vision of trying to change the built environment with the goal of facilitating a very culturally specific leisure lifestyle. They think the right zoning changes and plans will somehow lead them to this promised land. I truly hope that someone, somewhere is doing research on the messianic influences on these urbanist YIMBYs. Because when I see their plans with their sketch drawings of people enjoying their utopian streetscapes it truly reminds me of the cover art on Jehova’s Witness literature in terms of utopian bizarreness. They also have the commonality that their utopian world never materializes and neither seem to wonder why, except to conclude that it is a lack of belief. [/quote]
