   A lot of zoning was a way to try to get around the civil rights act by not explicitly saying it was about race

     @leyonhjelm @caekislove @gentoobro Hardcore leftists aren't even wrong about certain kinds of racism, like a lot of how the country is set up is to ensure the well-off don't have to interact with black people outside of a few carefully filtered exceptions. Of course you're not allowed to go into detail about why they want that so badly.

     @leyonhjelm @gentoobro Now, racial zoning.. That's an idea!

     It’s ok to admit zoning was a failed attempt to get niggers to leave

     @leyonhjelm The entire concept of zoning is rife with corruption. A crook with political connections can make guaranteed free money by buying land zoned as "toxic waste dump" and then use their pull to get it rezoned as "luxury condos".

     BTW, every piece of land in Houston is defacto zoned as "toxic waste dump". We've got schools next to strip clubs next to megachurches.

     @caekislove @leyonhjelm Zoning is why American cities suck now, and why all the remaining "good parts" were grandfathered in from before zoning laws ans somehow managed to escape being bulldozed to build a freeway or parking lot.

     @caekislove city planning is the worse of all possible options

     (It somehow works better than actual city planning, by the way.)

     The Houston version of SimCity is the mayor saying "Fuck it!" while snorting coke off a whore's chest and letting land developers make all the decisions.
