This is disingenuous. Lets admit that there are racist people who use and/or co-opt these types of regulations and address the genuine arguments in their favor.

This is disingenuous. Lets admit that there are racist people who use and/or co-opt these types of regulations and address the genuine arguments in their favor. Then maybe we can find compromises that help both `sides`.
- eropple 7y agoAssuming that one "side"--the one inventing things about people with more melanin--is in any way deserving of compromise is immediate and irrevocable surrender. The white-supremacist contingent understands this and are not looking to compromise. They'll take whatever compromise is handed to them and immediately refuse to change their behavior at all.
- Misdicorl 7y agoAs far as these regulations are a proxy for racism, yes absolutely they need to be removed. But lets understand the arguments that aren't based in racism, and I think they exist, to try and accommodate those aspects of single family home neighborhoods. I think if 1/4 of high density space is dedicated to public parks, that would go a long way towards addressing the real issues. Those parks can't just be space 'somewhere' either. There has to be one within ~two blocks of every home in my estimation.
