hipsters are gonna fukk up the graff game in the bronx like they are doing in brooklyn. all that street art hipster bullshyt is gonna start appearing in the bronx smh. the bronx was the last borough of writers who were it in for the vandalism, not to get into some gallery or show. half the writers you see in queens and brooklyn are too scared to even step foot in the bronx.
Dude look in the mirror and realize you sound like a fukking moron. You living in the past. You can't really live in the Bronx and believe what you just typed. This is 2016 not 1977 and I get you just watched the Get Down but grow up, people are losing their housing now. Adults can appreciate the art but this is not a priority anymore.

what the hell are you talking about? i was just pointing out hipsters are gonna fukk up the graff scene in the bronx. so many young black and hispanics in the bronx are putting in alot of work and destroying alot of property, yet they are getting outshined by some hipster street artists in brooklyn that doesnt have half the ups they do. obviously people losing their homes is much worse than losing the graff scene, but the people moving in and forcing long time residents out are the same people fukking up the graff scene. how many writers from brooklyn and queens do you see consistenly hitting the bronx? map and trap are the only ones i can think of. zexoh comes through and does his thing, ja comes through and does his thing, the r2b clowns came through and did their thing. we are losing the bronx and you think street artists hipsters coming in and taking over is okay smh.

Take a ride on the J train in BK and take a ride on the 4 train in the BX. do you really want the 4 line looking like that?

A South Bronx reality check: How much change is the area really seeing?
The (South) Bronx Is Turning, But Not Everyone Is Thrilled About It

"The waterfront locale and the subway access ‘make this a breeding ground for what made Williamsburg and Dumbo. The South Bronx just makes so much sense.’—Justin Fitzsimmons, analyst with GFI Realty"

No shyt South BX is next. When you don't own and maintain your shyt, gentrification is what happens.

Capitalism don't give a fukk.

at least if you own it, you can cash out.

But when you don't even own your shyt, complaining about how fukked up it is is worthless.

I've been thinking a correction would occur for a minute now, but so much real estate is tied to foreign investment. Now for some cities the bubble will burst if a downturn occurs because the foreign investment is coming from one country (i.e. Toronto & China). NYC investors are from all over. If I had bread I would buy a house in Mott Haven, these PJ's will not keep the hipsters away.

The project era is over, that land is too valuable in major cities.

which is what people did, at least in brooklyn, and people still complain!

Plus, most people in nyc don't own property anyway, they live in apartments. Its always been like that.

I think people just look for reason to be mad that things are changing around them, which they should, but you should look at the truth so you can find proper solutions. Just making up stuff does nothing but help your enemy keep bullshytting you.

The moral grandstanding in relation to ownership needs to fall back, NYC never had a high rate of ownership generally. And plus the relevant factors made renting more practical/reasonable even for middle class New Yorker's.
