My guess is most normal people just want to be where every other normal person is and to have comment moderation enforced.

A ketamine overdose couldn’t happen sooner to this mother fucker.

$170 is fucking insane for internet. 😡

Rent is the primary factor for sure, but I think you’re downplaying the impact remote work has, and/or not realizing the demand from employees for remote work. Many are taking pay cuts if they can remote work, and that does affect the labor market.

Exactly. Spending 2 hours out of each day stuck in traffic for only a 20mile drive is psychotic.

LA’s transit system, hell even the idea of a central ‘downtown’, was never designed for effective mass transit. The metro rails that are expanding are better, but I know so many people that refuse to use it out of fear of being stabbed or mugged, the disgusting homeless encampments that are around the parking lots of the stations, etc…

You’re not. The majority of people feel that way, but it’s mostly quietly though since saying otherwise publicly would be construed as being ‘sexist/misogynistic/puritan/etc/etc’.

Only a tiny fraction of society actively engages in social media. Remember that.
