I wonder what their opinion is on school buses from expensive elitist private schools? Also, I know I'm not the only one whose picking up on the subtle racial undertones in this article. Why are they so quick to describe the villainous tech workers as "young white men"? I keep seeing this pop up in bay area news concerning gentrification in Oakland. In St. Louis, numerous races (Black, White, Asian) take part in gentrification and it's seen as a good thing. Yet, in San Francisco it's so demonized and race is immediately pointed out.
- oijaf888 13y agoAren't the vast majority of tech workers "young white men"? Also maybe the areas that are gentrifying are ending up less diverse than they started whereas in St Louis its not an issue since the neighborhoods are staying diverse?
- ChrisNorstrom 13y agoMakes sense. St. Louis has a lot of low cost places to escape to whereas in the bay area everything's somewhat prime real estate.
