@audacityofdespair.bsky.social Trying some lateral and creative moves to get the word out. Apologies if too forward. The developers are counting on obfuscating the public's understanding of the process. I humbly implore you to spread the word to those you know who'd care or could help. God bless

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social I don't need to tell you, but Coney's beneficence transcends lines of race, class, politics. It's true People's Beach, one of the last vestiges of a functional NYC melting pot. A total good. Locusts are trying to devour it, get $ thru shell corps, and get out of dodge

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social The project will block views of the Wonder Wheel, enclose the historic bldng for the nonprofit Coney Island USA, and destroy the Coney's historic amusement spirit. Developers left historic structures on said land to rot, biding their time to make this play

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social Developers promise a 200 million community trust to “assist” the area with rec center construction and flood prevention. It’s a bad faith argument and a Faustian pact-600 million is needed for flood prevention; ONLY the land around the casino itself will be protected.

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social Thor Equities (likely in alliance with the Genting Group, a Malaysian land development firm). Politicians being bought off, constituents from Bensonhurst and Gravesend paid, given T-Shirts, and bussed into the last community board meeting (they left early).

@audacityofdespair.bsky.social The local Community Board 13 will imminently vote on a zoning proposal during the zoom meeting on Jan 15th that will clear way for the construction of the casino, before a full board vote on Jan 22. Zoom meeting sent in previous link (cont.)
