Re: Controversial opinion

Just genuinely curious here, but did you grow up in a similar environment? I have relatives who live in a part of LA that's slowly undergoing gentrification and, while they're glad that the area is cleaner and a little safer, the cost of living there is going up and some "hipster" stores catering to people who buy stuff like fifteen dollar muffins are pushing out the mom and pop stores where they'd buy their groceries and household items.

Yeah. I moved out to university when I was seventeen and was never able to return home because in the name of slum clearance the council pulled down all the buildings I grew up with and replaced them with luxury apartments for rich fuckers and shipped all the original inhabitants, including my mum and nan, off to different suburb towns. My mum went to one down Southside and my nan got sent to one up to the North East. They just broke up families and neighbourhoods indiscriminately shoving people into whatever housing they had at the top of a list.

Worst part was that all the actual slums were wiped out at least thirty years before due to the hard work of local residents and businesses. It was only when it moved up from slum, tenement, and rookery up to the point where it looked like the land might have value again and location was getting desirable that they broke out the compulsory purchase orders. Now it is just soulless coffee bars at nights, nobody around during the day, and half the apartments are second or third homes and the few larger houses that escaped are all sold to the Russian Mafia or Chinese people smugglers.

I'm so sorry, anon.

That fucking sucks, anon. I'm so sorry. The last bit about the slums being wiped out due to the hard work of the people living there makes me so sad because so many people think that the poor people who live in those areas want to live there even though they don't have a choice because it's expensive every where else. Then they go and try to improve the area of the city they call home and someone else swoops in to gentrify the area and diminish all their hard work. So fucking unfair.
