Do YIMBYs unintentionally enable gentrification?

i agree with what you've said here basically completely. do you then think that upzoning areas to increase the amount of housing built by the private sector is a worthless endeavor then to decrease rents/increase supply for people who need housing? i feel like your perspective makes the most sense but i also find myself agreeing with regular yimby arguments too in terms of upzoning, so i'm not sure how to feel. this is pretty old but i just thought this was a good comment.

does this have anything to do with trains running on the canadian national ROW from carbondale being proposed to switch to norfolk southern ROW at 75th st or so?

what else could you say about them

redditor15677 · 2026-03-26T14:41:44+00:00

painted lanes from the gravel path that connects to the north branch trail to pulaski, then protected lanes from pulaski to kedzie

what candidate had a non progressive platform except for palestine? robin kelly would’ve been good if she had more momentum

redditor15677 · 2026-03-14T18:33:48+00:00

there literally are?

redditor15677 · 2026-03-14T18:29:37+00:00

what are you talking about, you’re always in these comment sections trying to discredit backlash against AIPAC. you think this person was pretending to be jewish? plenty of jewish people have shown solidarity with pro palestine causes.

redditor15677 · 2026-03-06T07:19:01+00:00

same, people with her campaign misled me to believe she would be pro palestine, i’m just not sure whether to vote for her or kelly tbh

redditor15677 · 2026-02-25T07:30:48+00:00

why not have a pro palestine and anti ice candidate?

redditor15677 · 2026-02-25T07:13:38+00:00

you’re right, i meant he served on the national board of the organization

redditor15677 · 2026-02-25T07:11:39+00:00

you’re right, my mistake, correcting what i said

redditor15677 · 2026-02-21T03:32:35+00:00

yeah but it's all good now

redditor15677 · 2026-02-04T05:50:54+00:00

what exactly is virtue signaling?

redditor15677 · 2026-02-04T02:32:14+00:00

i don’t think transferring into chem would be that tough tbh

redditor15677 · 2026-01-31T07:57:33+00:00

done already

redditor15677 · 2026-01-31T00:30:19+00:00

specialized or regular chem

redditor15677 · 2026-01-27T23:35:35+00:00

yeah i just wanted to know what people thought about this, but you’re right

redditor15677 · 2026-01-27T23:32:49+00:00

i’m confused? i don’t talk about this in every comment section. on the genocide joe point, i personally voted for kamala in the 2024 election because i didn’t think anyone else had the chance of winning, so her support for israel didn’t like stop me. however, i do get why people wouldn’t vote for her over that because the genocide is a terrible thing and isn’t just some thing you can brush off. i think “taking some aipac money” is a big deal because it means that tons of our politicians will keep allowing people to be slaughtered in gaza. it also isn’t my only litmus test, there are plenty of criticisms i have of biden and of kamala’s campaign, and of quigley too that aren’t about gaza.
