YIMBYs if you don't get serious about reducing crime then folks are going to move to the suburbs with lower density and higher carbon footprint. The DSA doesn't care so you have to take a position on crime.https://twitter.com/clairevo/status/1423101104175271941 …

YIMBYs might be the true single issue voters organization. They're missing the forest for the (very important) trees. FWIW I endorse all positions the org takes but it's wildly timid and let's crazy people run amok elsewhere.
but theyre caving to the DSA NiMBYs. Some only want public housing (which will never get built).
It's not that hard to take positions on schools, crime, business friendliness. All of which increase densitythe timidity is there because they know there's so much overlap in their numbers with DSA people. they are never going to play to win.

I'm not a member so I cant speak to the overlap. The YIMBYS are soft spoken and the DSA is boorish, militant and extremely vocal. It might be the dictatorship of a small minority, even though most of the city would be YIMBY (they voted for Scott Weiner).

Fwiw I am a yimby neoliberal. Lots of us out there, but our yimby orgs should focus on housing, because some of us disagree on other things. I favor large scale deregulation of zoning laws, defunding freeways, and increased surveillance to combat urban crime.

Deep down, the YIMBYs are uncomfortable with market solutions.
