One reason for the hordes of nincompoops is that he engages with the insane people and cultists at length which makes them feel relevant. It’s almost charitable work, but it attracts even more nutcases.

The essay “The Tyranny of Structurelessness” 1972 was about the inevitable shadow hierarchies that emerged in feminist anarchist groups.

Ha! I had that all wrong last night. It was the other side of that coin. I blame the vieux carre.

The state level legislation tack does have some risk, but it’s also a major part of moving the needle right now. Not doing it would be risky as well.

The will to do is building housing. You should drill down on those numbers and understand how about 60% of the numbers you cite are transitional. There are some negligent vacancies to be sure. But I’d love to hear your housing solution. Fortunately we’re already moving in the right direction.

And yet when supply exceeds demand the price of housing drops and consequently the rate of homelessness decreases. Like in all the locales previously mentioned and many more examples if you care to look into it. You can’t house people if there’s not enough housing for people where they want to live.

You are somehow against markets? They are obviously not a religion like right wingers presume, but a good managed tool and the best price discovery mechanism yet invented.
I invite you to visit the few remaining command economies in the world. Good times good people but yikes.

One nice thing is that YIMBYism is a rocket ship that started from nothing a few years ago and has grown to a point where it’s actually helping people. Truly astonishing for a pessimist such a myself. The Marxist circular firing squad shows no signs of being a threat in my lifetime. Safely ignored.

Dos economics exist? Let me guess you’re some version of Marxist flat earther. Japan doesn’t exist. Neither does Germany. Oakland California is a myth.

Elemental wrongness in its purest form. Building housing at scale lowers rent and housing prices. Like in my city where that’s demonstrably happened.

a denial that everybody understands might also be a double entendre with no further comment would be actually really quite damaging to trump imo
