    An unsurprisingly one sided perspective on gentrification with no attention given to the displacement and economic exclusion of those already living in those ‘ghettos’ and ‘hoods’.

    Can communities built on a settler mindset ever reconcile their past and grow beyond it? Or will it always be ok as long as the people that do it have money and dress / act / talk the way some may like?

      It’s 4chan, obviously there’s no consideration for how something negatively impacts minorities.

      If only gentrification worked like anon thinks it does lol. Not the making everything overpriced, clean new shithole buildings and still have crimeness that it is. Not to mention some of those neighborhoods were already peaceful in their own way.

    The hipsters balnakanized and fragmented because we were forced to attempt to migrate to find reasonable housing prices and jobs.

    Yep, that’s right, blame capitalism.

    Dude, we were high as shit and a lot of us were openly gay. Also only like the post irony music was happy and that was a response to just how fucking depressing indie music had been.

    They could’ve deleted those first three lines and given a subjective opinion about hipsters, but then they wouldn’t have posted on 4chan.

    I’m a bit of a hipster myself (hair hanging down, jeans, an ankh around my neck, a Celtic tattoo on my butt, and I smoke a pipe), and I can only agree.
