I’m sorry that “the cops should be better at their jobs and more accountable to the public” is less radical and exciting to you than “abolish policing” but your demands are fundamentally reformist (which is good).

I will take any opportunity to plug this masterful history of zoning in the Boston suburbs by @amydain.bsky.social: www.bostonindicators.org/reports/repo...

This is an absolute CLASSIC of New England NIMBYism. Cities in the Boston suburbs love to exclusively approve age-restricted senior apartments and 1-bedrooms. www.bostonindicators.org/reports/repo...

You probably don’t have different views of what the tradeoffs are. You just have different values.
