Disagree. The YIMBY movement is picking up steam in a big way. Here in Oregon, we re-legalized 4-plexes in our cities and the woman responsible, Tina Kotek, is now our governor. She's pushing another big housing bill. Our mayor in the city I live in regularly attends our YIMBY group meetups.

It's gotten bad enough in enough places that there's a lot of interest in reform.

Some good groups to check out:
