Not quite, I mean I seen one or two of them literally but nothing en masse like bk....:francis: but you know shyt is a red flag when they put Starbucks out here it's like white people's catnip and shyt...
The final nail in teh coffin is when they start putting up CitiBike stands
What a colossal failure that has been by the way, the city has just lost money because of it.
I just see them citi bikes as teh gay transplant/yuppie/hipster entitled a$$hole mobile of the 2010s.

So they all think it's some sort of a game? Not only is this demoralizing, but highly disrespectful. Equivalent to throwing money in your face

If I was a gang member and I'd run up on them cacs with the steel. And of course none of the residents do anything about it

I'm not saying these cats is coming here to become real estate developers...the fukk did I say that at?:hhh:

Right here ....
Then they start snatching up the property
Who is snatching up property breh ? :mjgrin:

I'm saying they coming here and moving here for a year or two and then continuing to raise the price of the cost of living through rentals and airbnbs here in Brooklyn.
American yuppies or european tourists ? ... :patrice:

Okay, you ain't in Brooklyn. You sill havent been seeing it so my point still stands. Washington Heights and Harlem is Manhattan...not BROOKLYN.

you're a brooklyn n!gga trying to school me on gentrification... seriously ? :laff:

Don't make this conversation more difficult than it has to be. I have no time for this ridiculous shyt back and forth. You know what I'm saying. You know that I have a point. End of story.

I don't know what the alternative to this is.
I don't know either.
The people involved in these tours actively look down on the folks living there. There's no appreciation of culture or a willingness to understand the problems that create these ghettos or the solutions. Just a pure sideshow attraction. Gentrification is just moving too fast for me here to even come up with any sort of alternative or solution this problem. It's too far gone.

This has been going on for ever, I think you are over exaggerating.

I live in NYC, these hipsters transplants are not openly racist.
Most of the pawgs I've smashed in NYC are transplants, usually didn't see many black people where they are originally from.
And their bucket list when they are in NYC is to get bbc

A gang member doesn't give a fukk about his damn community.

Rio De Janeiro, BR
I remember seeing one of these tours in Harlem in 2013 when I was working in Midtown...

A black dude was the one organizing all of these lily white Eurotrash tourists up on Lenox to 145th...

:snoop:

It's like the "favela tourism" here in Rio De Janeiro, our daily struggles are a show place for them :snoopbald:
