Reply to comment by the_honeyman in Vote NO on Question #1 by [deleted]

So we're just supposed to want this development because if we don't, then we might be faced with an even worse deal in the future?

That's a terrible argument!

And you're still just ignoring the bullshit you said earlier, which is what I called you out on:

>Why would you not want a new mixed use development in your neighborhood? More amenities, walkable neighborhoods, all of these are good things. Corporate owned housing not so much, but capitalists gonna capitalist i guess.

WTF was up with that, huh? Why are you trying to pretend like this proposal isn't mainly about corporate-owned housing??

And yet, that's the exact logic people are using to say vote yes on Amendment 3. Hmm.

Because mixed use, walkable development is objectively better than urban sprawl single family dwellings where everybody needs a car to do anything? Are we suddenly pretending to have a problem with the corporate owned part? I'd be extremely curious to know the percentage of people who live in that neighborhood who made their money via working the corporate rat race, and who don't see problems with ordering shit from Amazon at the drop of a hat.

Don't try to change the topic just because your argument is bad.

I'm just gonna go back and copy paste a previous comment I made towards you:

>Dude, the amount of water you're carrying for a wealthy-ass development company is disgraceful.

I don't even have skin in the game. I couldn't care less what happens down there. The hypocrisy is real, is all.

If that's a bad argument, so is the "yes on 3."

Yeah of course, you're just here to spew a bunch of bullshit without knowing what you're talking about.

>The hypocrisy is real, is all.

This is just more bullshit.

I'm just gonna copy paste this one from my previous comment:
