You are the trash that litters our streets if you think that littering is in any way justifiable.

Littering in certain spaces is a counter-gentrification force that reminds people of the waste in our society. Change my mind

- That’s not a very convincing argument.
- …within the context of what I said that would be a compliment? Thanks, I guess.

Fine, asshole. Someone will clean up that trash, the town may end up paying someone to do it which may increase the tax burden driving out poor residents resulting in gentrification. There. Asshole.

You may perceive it that way, but in reality it’s just shitty asshole people being shitty assholes because they are pathologically incapable of being decent human beings.

On what basis do you think littering is a counter-gentrification force?
It seems to me all it does is depress property values to make it more attractive for gentrification.
It’s not like the people buying up properties, bulldozing them, and building condos for massive profits can’t afford to push the litter to the next neighborhood.

My thoughts are sort of like inverse broken windows. Make it have vibes that make the gentrifiers not wanna be around.

I hate that in capitalism, if a community takes care of their streets, and make a safe an loving place, they are rewarded by higher rent.
Labor profiting from what I call existential labor.
