Not that poster, but the folks who are leaving are not uniformly conservative. Not by a long shot. Silver Spring/Takoma Park is a very insular little uber-liberal bubble. But most of the county is more moderate.

"Silver Spring" is most of the east county. Not insular, not little, not "uber-liberal" (whatever that means), not a bubble. In fact, you might even say that Silver Spring IS most of the county.

lol, no. But that shows just how self-centered Silver Spring residents are.

OK, then please tell me what parts of the county you consider Silver Spring.

Oh, look, Dan Reed even wrote a piece about it, on the blog Greater Greater Washington.

It's a Census Designated Place, and that's the easiest way to discuss population differences by unincorporated areas.

Reed is an urban planner? He should have a clue was CDPs are. They are used all the time.

And if you are upcounty, you should know that Germantown is bigger and has more people. So no, Silver Spring is not "most of the county."

Agree with a PP who said anyone who disagrees with him he calls a NIMBY or a bigot or a racist.

You don't want a highrise in the middle of your suburban neighborhood? Racist/bigot who doesn't want to be around poor people.

You don't want you kid on a school bus for an hour to go to a school with an empty seat, you'd rather them stay in the same neighborhood, walk to school where their friends on their baseball team are, more of the same.

Want to drive your own car, because you need to get those kids to baseball practice and it's a 15 minute drive and there is no bus, you are evil and destroying the planet.

He is selfish, self centered and childless. Wants to infill every bit of greenery with affordable housing. However, all the tax breaks he supports for developers are county-wide, and see see what's being built in Bethesda - not affordable housing. But he only cares about himself and Silver Spring.

I just wish the policies he promotes only affected Silver Spring. Instead, he is contributing to the downfall of our county and our school system.

This. And again, its "agree with him, 100% on everything" or you are some kind of ghoul. Fortunetely, outside of the fringe twitter verse, I imagine most people have no idea who he even is.

Glad you left, too.

A shame you couldn’t drag a few more trumpturds out with you when you left.

Seriously. Silver Spring is not most of the county. But it certainly has the biggest echo chamber of all. Not in touch with reality whatsoever.

Hey, Dan! Or Dan's partner - I forget your name. Good of you to stop by.

You're thinking much more about them than they are about you.
