nimbyism and gentrification are the same thing. we just call it gentrification when the nimbys dont get what they want because they're too marginalized to work the system in their favor

im amenable to this because people carelessly throw around the word 'gentrification' for when it often just means development but i still feel there's a qualitative difference between someone who just doesnt want shade to cast across their garden half the day due to a new high rise going up and someone getting priced out of their apartment

in other words in SF nimbyism is driving gentrification by factors pushing out lower income people but denying development that may alleviate such issues

i ran into my landlord today and he told me that some guy died in one of the apartments in the building, but he was happy that the guy didn't die in the apartment itself. you know, LUCKILY. then he said he had a vacancy and if i knew anyone to let them know.

many people feel this way and it's not invalid but it boils down to using a less harsh word when something bad happens to a wealthy white person versus when that thing happens to a poor person of color

where you at? i could use housing on a death-superstition discount. unless avoidinf that's why it was "luckily not in the appt itself"

nimbys dont have to necessarily move and when they do they probably make out okay while actual gentrification (again, not just ~development~ changing the fabric of a neighborhood) you're out of your home

actual gentrification, i.e., pushing people out happens less and in less cities than people think but yeah there's still a distinction there

oh cool, so the people who oppose allowing new apartment complexes because it will slightly disrupt their view and "congest traffic" are the same as me wondering when my affordable apartment building will be knocked down and i'll only be able to afford places two hours away from where I currently work or getting a place adjacent to the projects. that's good to know we're both facing the same kind of anxiety
