I've run afoul of a bot-army from elsewhere (hexbear). edit: damn! literal bot army! 7 downvotes in 10 minutes of the comment being posted. Just show yourself won't you.
Jesus Christ no kidding lol
I've experienced the same here because I argued against an anarchist.
I argued against CCP and commie China. lol
LOL wow 6 downvotes within minutes!
people who are logged into hexbear can't downvote brainiac
I got so used to being in a downvote free environment, having them really makes it easy to quietly quell this stuff
If this is a surprise to anyone I would insult their critical thinking. How could that have gone any other way? Obviously that land was going to be more valuable as single family detached homes in a wildly speculative real estate environment and of course developers would know that. Of course these developers would have influence too, they were Ford's base in the 905!
The development industry is basically run like a mafia in most countries.
Canada is basically run by a bunch of Mafias mascarading as corporations.
