For the love of God, please craft hobbies and an appreciation for life beyond abstract “utility” maximization. These freaks are so hyperalienated from their own existence that they can’t conceive of themselves as anything other than an input. Sorry nerds, you won’t find self-actualization by designing a marginally more addictive ad-software or another tulip bubble. Please stop eating the bugs and look at some art for a fucking change.
Bulldoze the suburbs, absolutely.
What NIMBYs are opposed to is their property values going down. They don’t care that the value of a walkable urban forest is vastly higher than their 3bed 2bath 2car suburban box, because they won’t be the owners of that urban property. They’ll be re-proletarianized like the rest of us and rendered without property or investments - a fate worse than death!
