Gentrification literally means the retaking of cities by decent folk. What do you think?
Samuel Fisher
Fuck off whitey stop destroying our culture

I don't think it's a moral dilemma, it seems totally amoral to me.

That depends on whether you want to quarantine the niggers or flush them out

BAD.
THOSE WHO CLAIM THAT IT IS "GOOD" ARE EITHER FULLY COMPREHENDING OF ITS CAUSES, AND OF ITS CONSEQUENCES, AND ARE THEREFORE "EVIL", OR IF IGNORANT, AND UNCOMPREHENDING, THEY ARE CONFUSED, THINKING THAT IT IS MERELY THE RECUPERATION OF FORMERLY DERELICT ZONES, BUT THAT IS ERRONEOUS.
GENTRIFICATION IS THE LAST PHASE IN A PROCESS OF SYSTEMATIC URBAN DECULTURALIZATION; TO BETTER UNDERSTAND IT, REFER IT TO ANALOGY: THE NEIGHBOURHOOD IS AN IMAGEBOARD; FIRSTLY, THE IMAGEBOARD'S COMMUNITY THRIVES, AND GRADUALLY, A BOARDCULTURE FLOURISHES, THEN THE ADMINISTRATION USES FORCE TO BAN CERTAIN KIND OF USERS, AND DELETE CERTAIN KINDS OF CONTENT, WHILST IMPLICITLY ENCOURAGING CERTAIN KINDS OF CONTENT, AND ALLOWING CERTAIN KINDS OF USER TO THRIVE; THIS LEADS TO THE BOARDCULTURE'S DISINTEGRATION, AND THE BOARD FALLS INTO DISARRAY; THIRDLY, COMES ADMINISTRATIVE INTERVENTION, RAZING THE MESS, AND SWEEPING THE DETRITUS, ESTABLISHING, AND IMPLEMENTING, ALL THE ELEMENTS OF THEIR AGENDA WITHOUT RESISTANCE, AND EVEN WELCOMED, ALL IN PRO OF "CORRECTNESS", "PRETTINESS", "COMFORT", AND "POPULARITY".

Is there a downside from a non-racial standpoint? I view it as a class thing mostly, I live in an affluent area of CT and there's a black family down the street who are perfectly fine and their kids just dry with chalk on the driveway all day like a bunch of white kids in summer.

It seems like it could be a problem if there are no official social support programs for the poor and community support is big in the gentrified communities. Like if neighbors work together to pay for medical care, take care of kids, etc., and the gentrification disrupts that community.
But if the government isn't retarded and has a proper social safety net then I don't see a problem.
