>>1999757I'm not laughing, I've been there, not sure why anyone would laugh as this is pretty obvious but yimbys can be breathtakingly stupid so I'm not surprised if you've had this experience
NYC is also hilly as fuck but you'll get raged at by the yimby crowd if you say this in urbanism spaces because they've only seen NYC in television shows about williamsburg and the east village, which of course are pancake-flat. Pre-ebike, cycling discussions about the city were full of clueless idiots arguing that everyone should have a single speed or a dutch bike because (I'm not even joking) "there aren't any hills in NYC". Not sure how things are now because "cycling in nyc" internet spaces give me hives
