Seems like we should post these screenshots weekly, since so many are suggesting YIMBY are “for affordable housing.”

Here’s Matthew Lewis, Comms Director of the largest dark-money-funded YIMBY lobbying group in California, the birthplace of YIMBY. @mateosfo
Matt briefly took me off block to quote tweet this, & contorted himself into justifying his classist (& racist) anti-public housing trope.

Btw @cayimby is the group that was behind the AB2053 social housing bill that was the housing equivalent of Medicare 4 All backed by Cigna.
#AB2053 was a bill so atrocious that even the Assembly’s staff said it would disproportionately benefit moderate & above moderate income & *ACCELERATE DISPLACEMENT.*

This is why we call YIMBY colonizers & settler urbanists & their efforts: Urban Renewal 2.0
