    Probably because of the misunderstanding that we dont need more housing and not to just expropriate what already exists and also just turn office towers into high density housing.

      It’s thrown around a lot, but it comes off more uninformed than the outright liberal YIMBYs imo.

      The things also is that liberal YIMBYs are generally all in favor of a steep vacancy tax which would directly impact this issue. This isn’t a particular point of division between the two groups I don’t think.

      The main split has more to do with the role social housing would play in the future (near and distant).
