YIMBYism and the attack on "woke capitalism" as a product of different branches of the Right that are now culturally estranged from one another desperately seeking the "this one big thing fixes everything" narrative that once brought them together in euroscepticism
The way the simplistic dogmatism of YIMBY economic liberals or anti-woke national conservatives leads to gradual radicalisation of rhetoric and outlook as their "one big thing" fails to solve anywhere near as much as they hoped is to the 2020s what Brexitism was to the 2010s
@APHClarkson Thank you for saying this. Though, at least from where I'm situated in the US progressive/PMC sphere, the "anti-woke" pretext already seems to be running out of steam. YIMBYism feels like the bigger success story, in the same way that Tony Blair was Margaret Thatcher's greatest achievement. https://mastodon.social/@misc/110752769211584197
