When you argue for housing reform to legalize denser development in our cities, you quickly learn that some people hate density. Like, really hate density, with visceral disgust and contempt for any development pattern that involves buildings being tall or close together.

Or here is another perspective for you. Maybe some of these people who hate density are quiet and respectful people, but they are TIRED of listening to other people blasting their music and doing laundry at 9pm.

I know crazy thought huh?

The “etc” is where your perspective fits. I wasn’t gonna sit here & write a dissertation for y’all. But yeah, that’s fair too.

You literally called out people who don’t like density as the root problem because they are the ones being loud.

Ya you might want to work on your writing skills.

Yes. Being exhausted with having to be considerate, which is what your perspective falls under, falls under that “etc.”

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes “etc” explains everything. So helpful, etc.

Sorry you’re not smart enough for that. What you missed was sarcasm.
