+1. Succint, and great response

hey it could have been much worse, i.e. drawing a connection to colonialism

so what you're saying is you don't have an argument. i genuinely have never understood the claim that residents of an area are obligated to change it in order for more people to move there and change their existing quality of life

You keep posting strawman after strawman, and that's why you're getting downvoted.

> newcomers are more entitled to live somewhere than the people who already live there

Nobody said that besides you.

> residents of an area are obligated to change it in order for more people to move there and change their existing quality of life

Again, nobody said that besides you.

the entire premise of the article is literally about how those mean single family home owners prefer to keep single family zoning and how the california government is advancing a bill to go ahead and increase density anyway

And it neither gives it "more entitlement to newcomers than to current owners" nor does it "obligate current residents to change it".
