How can you try to claim the moral high ground re: "someone else's" property while supporting zoning laws literally prevent people from doing what they would like with the property they own?
- themagician 8y agoI don't claim the moral high ground. I'm just saying that YIMBYism is a farce. We need more housing. We should rezone certain areas. But we should be honest about it. This is a needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few argument, not some fake pseudo- altruistic bullshit.
- fosk 8y ago> not some fake pseudo- altruistic bullshit Ha! Welcome to SF. The city that pretends that letting homeless people shoot up and overdose in the street means that we are respecting their right to live the way they want. In any decent society we would be helping these people, and we would disrupt their destructive way of living, which is destructive not just to them but to society as a whole (public health concerns, needles and human excrements on the street, etc). But...electric scooters are the current biggest problem for the city administration. Edit: to the downvoters, care to explain your disagreement?
- peacetreefrog 8y agoI did not downvote, but this seems like a tangent.
