Problems are brewing in San Francisco - gentrification is ruining the Great Society. It’s the latest outrage. Evil landlords are evicting low rent tenants, including:
“Anarchists, queers and transgender refugees, broke folk, veterans against war (presumably excluding Oliver Stone); lifelong San Franciscans with the government subsidized right to finger-paint 365 days a year and call themselves artists;
illegalsworld citizens of undefined national origin or documentation.“
I’ll bet that some of those folks could have spent time working and saving up to buy properties in their formerly distressed neighborhood and they could be cashing in now, too. But that’s not what social justice activists are all about. They prefer to make a big stink and mooch off of others.
I guess that building in the East Village that blew up because of a gas leak had not quite been gentrified - though people tell me the village is gentrified. Funny - i remember east 11 th st where the junkies knocked down a brick wall and stole the boiler ! The building superintendent was so freaked out, he dragged me over to see it - unbelievable !
