    That’s dumb as fuck. It’s a comparison of 100 homes vs 100 homes. Not 100 homes vs 1000 homes.

      This is something I’m seeing A LOT in this thread, this NIMBY notion that if we just refuse to build housing that the rest of the population needing housing will just poof and disappear.

      There are 8 billion people on this planet. We can either choose to build sprawl-for-all and destroy the planet, or we can build denser, more walkable, more transit-oriented cities.
