it aint even about "poor people"
its about dramatically decreasing the property value of the houses already there
if I bought my house knowing its in a well-off suburb yeah im gonna be pissed if you build affordable housing near it
There's literally no development planned at this time, it's just setting aside land (that would probably end up being turned into a boughie park like the tweet said)
bro you have a good heart, but this is not it, the system is f***ed but the best way to fight it is to know how to maneuver in it, then once inside we can chose how to help
when has change happened lawfully? slavery? labor rights? the civil rights movement? antiwar movements?
He also offered to buy the land from the developer from its original listing @ 2 million and the developer jacked it up to 6 million
The developer is literally extorting him
Should we believe Brent, how did he get this info, it doesn’t seem like that’s Dave’s issue based on his speech idk
Build affordable housing near jobs and public transportation not suburban Ohio
That s*** aint even suburban, its rural
Affordable Housing
$300k
mfs thing that affordable housing means a bunch of homeless people and d*** addicts are instantly gonna move in
they cant afford that s***
friendly reminder that dave chappelle's mom is CIA

mans funding a comedy club/restaurant nearby too lmfao
when the harvest is bountiful you pull out more chairs
I'd rather invest in the wellness of my fellow brothers and sisters, than see Zillow rate my house nicely
that's a nice thought but you still don't try to see things from his perspective, you're seeing this greed, I'm seeing this as protecting his family and future generations and guaranteeing they have the best possible lives
Niggas itt supporting Chapelle. How can we get ahead when all the black people with power put their money ahead of their brothers and sisters when push comes to shove. I’m okay with him choosing to protect his pockets, but he can’t say he’s trying to make a change at the same time

Brent apparently lives there and this "grimm" is just out here posting out of context clips for a narrative.
then share your house with homeless people if you care so much about everyone having a house and not seeing your house as a commodity
if I invested in something I'm doing everything I can for it not to lose value
troll theres no way someone can genuinely be this braindead
that's a nice thought but you still don't try to see things from his perspective, you're seeing this greed, I'm seeing this as protecting his family and future generations and guaranteeing they have the best possible lives
and that is possible with regular people living down the street
if Dave wanted to be surrounded by the wealthy he shoulda stayed in LA lol
then you should understand me even more!
i grew up in the hood and worked since I was 16 to leave it, I almost starved to pay rent thats why I value my house so much and if someone tried to f*** with it I would be relentless too!
If someone tried to build houses for poor people near your house you'd be mad too? Because that would be the direct comparison
What is the 24 million company, the developer? What is Dave talking about when he says they are making him audition, I don’t understand
s*** confused me too. bro really called participating in a city council meeting “auditioning” Lmaoo he thinks he’s too rich and famous to stick it out with us
then you should understand me even more!

building affordable housing DOES NOT lower property value you dumb f***
do like 1 minute of research before you pick some stupid hill to die on
and that is possible with regular people living down the street

no man, if I invested 300k on a fund for my kids and someone decided that I would have to give 150k for charity I would be pissed too
thats my decision to make, and this housing situation is just that
I spent two summers giving cinema and art classes to kids in my old hood but that was my decision, nobody forced me, were you forced to work at the homeless shelter? would it be the same if you were forced to do it?
then you should understand me even more!

you understand you are buying into the boot that was on your own head right?
they create these mechanisms to make you "act in your own interest" which just means enforcing the boot on those just like you - just slightly lower - in the interest of the bigger boot resting on both of yall.
by all means act in your own self interest but dont delude yourself ideologically like its defensible. dont be defending the boot on your own neck just so you can have the chance to put it on somebody else.

here's the attention you wanted, now f*** off
He don’t give a f*** about the sidewalks.
He’s making a new restaurant (Firehouse Eatery) and a comedy club (Live from YS) in the area. This is why he’s opposed to the affordable housing. He don’t want poor people living there because he don’t think they’ll pay for his s*** and he wants wealthier customers in the area.
He a NIMBY ass nigga no matter how you look at it
Pro Chappelle clowns still haven’t said a word about this
It’s deeper than just trying to protect the “property value” of some house.
s*** confused me too. bro really called participating in a city council meeting “auditioning” Lmaoo he thinks he’s too rich and famous to stick it out with us
Yeah I honestly couldn’t tell if that’s what he meant
Also I didn’t really get what he meant by comparing the developer and the money that he’s putting in and talking about litigation

so whats the better option? to abandon all hope and not want something better for myself? to go live in the woods? the system is f***ed, but it definitely isnt any of us weirdos in a kanye forum that are going to change s***
