    I made a nextdoor account recently for my small business and one of the first posts I see is boomers decrying the closure of a small prop leaded plane toy airport closing to make way for apartments.

    Wah traffic, Wah my homes value, Wah crime rates.

    These people are fucking obsolete.

      We have a new multi-block set of apartments going up in the suburb near me that they’re doing the same about. It’s going to ruin the town! It’s going to lower property values! Won’t someone think of the children?!

      It was parking lots. It was just parking lots before. It was a place for commuters to drop their car and go into the city. I can’t even with these people. The best part is that those apartments will probably bring in more tax revenue than their entire single-family subdivision!
