alt Hacker News> I think you're actually just complaining about democracy
Local participatory democracy is in fact pretty terrible: HOAs, school boards, neighborhood impact hearings where people complain that building apartments would let the poors move in and we can't have that.
I see this troll response all the time stating families don't want "poors" as some kind of attempt at manipulation to feel I am a bad person.
I [given the chance] would also vote against apartments in my particular neighborhood, and it has nothing to do with being poor at all.
