the city seemed like somewhere she could really see herself heartlessly displacing families in the future.

Uh, I guess I am part of the gentrification problem. Idk how to not be while improving my QoL. Give away all my proceeds and keep living at the same (fairly low but above homeless) standard that I’ve grown up with?

I know it’s satire, but the point is, it’s making a point with sarcasm, right?

Yeah being angry at people buying homes is incredibly stupid.

How about being mad at the NIMBYs who push zoning laws that make it impossible to build dense apartments anywhere.

Gentrification is a word that smart NIMBYs made up to deflect blame.

Screw all housing related zoning laws.
