lol, it's a coup. the gentrification of the mission metastasizing the
bridge itself, and anyone who speaks up without a so-called solution (the
oft-cited solution "just stop" is summarily dismissed) is branded
"negative" and never listened to again. it's sharp, even if unintentional.
there goes years of accumulated tools, books, knowledge, community goodwill
etc. into the hands of dudes who just got here. gonna let it keep happening?
