Why is gentrification seen as a bad thing? If poor ghetto people are wasting prime location, they kind of deserve to be ousted. Money talks, bullshit walks, this is how the world works. Plus it's obvious these fucks are committing many crimes there because the area always goes up in value and safety after it's gentrified. Is there even a single negative to gentrification beyond rent increasing? (And who gives a fuck about renters, if you don't own the property you have absolutely nothing to fucking say.)

Tell me you’re racist without telling me you’re racist

True. I think all of it is wrong because I’m in a state of financial insecurity, but competition is human nature. This inspires me to save my money in order to be by myself near a less populated area, so that I can still socialize, and be away from all of the BS.
Why doesn’t everyone else do this?
Oh yeah
Low intelligence, low self esteem, and hard drugs

Racist? Where did I mention any race at all? What are you implying here?

Gentrification is bad for the overall economy primarily because of housing costs. When housing gets too expensive, you get all kinds of bad issues: lower home ownership rates which are linked to crime, higher pressure on working people which leads to bad work and home environments as well as increasing substance abuse issues, as well as businesses failing because of higher rents and having to pay higher wages for local employees, etc. Almost no good comes out of it. It's much better to have housing costs that are under control and stable.

Here in one of the red states we understand the value of our working poor and we keep the housing costs affordable. Its not a slum here by any means but it also isnt the Ritz Carlson.

Its almost like a huge wealth gap is a bad thing.

I mean they can move somewhere else

Things that correlate with race can be construed as racist. Gentrification primarily affects black people who were originally pushed into poor areas of cities, now that prices of city life are skyrocketing they’re being pushed out. It sucks for a people who’s history is full of abuse and people not giving a shit about that abuse. Not giving a shit about that abuse is racist, and you don’t give a shit about that abuse, ergo you are racist.

You don’t have to disparage a race specifically to be racist either, you can simply not care about race-based abuse.

Thats the thing though. Poor people often cant afford to move.

Essentially right but expressed in whiny liberal. This is also why fags are always used to spearhead gentrification because shit schools aren't an issue for them.

They can uproot their whole lives can they? Folks tend to not want to do that. This is equivalent to when Hillary said she would pay for all the coal miners to learn another trade, people hated her for that. You deserve the same response.

I'll tell you, you fucking beta cuck bitch. Fuck them apes. Go to the chimp out in Chicago and go get shot with your #BLM t shirt on you fucking faggot.

>now that prices of city life are skyrocketing they’re being pushed out. It sucks
They are being pushed out because their property values are raising so much they can't afford the tax on it. They sell it and they move somewhere quieter in the country and still have a 100-200k in the bank after buying a house. It sucks not to be able to stay in one spot that you're familiar with but time causes change.

>they can uproot their lives and get some market-determined value for it
You don’t get to make that decision for them. Being forced to do that sucks even if there is a payout. Just because it’s capitalism forcing them to move doesn’t make it right.

Some of the effects of gentrification sucks and when things suck it makes sense to mitigate their effect when enough people feel that way, and enough people do. There is no universal truth here.

>gentrification
>where did I mention any race at all
gentrification is when you end racial segregation

Go back to your safe space, nigger.

I think you want my post to be racist so you're doing mental gymnastics to make it so. I never mentioned or referred to any race. You sound like the racist here since you are assuming that basically all blacks are poor ghetto people who are so childlike they have no control over their destinies. Big yikes.

You don't want niggers moving to nice places and creating more white flight

So better come up with some more bullshit

Yes because they have black skin they should he somehow be protected from the ills of life that everyone else deals without any sympathy. Oh yeah because slavery and redlining generations ago, that means it's so. Get the fuck outta here

*Whose

All I'm saying is that they can wipe away those tears with $1000 bills if they want. That isn't the sort of thing that inspires much pity on my behalf as if they were getting their property stolen from them due to eminent domain for pennies. There are millions of real tragedies out there to feel pity for.
