Have you noticed a trend in other social media streams removing negative news of cost-of-living issues in Tampa?

As an FYI, there is a short period of time after the post is up that you have to edit. Once the clock runs out on that, only a mod can delete the post.

There is mainstream and then there is side-stream. When did these streams separate? Why? .

Side-stream people generally do not trust the US government, science or the opinion of the rest of the world and would prefer a one party system to control it all. People need to stop worrying about which party wins an election. The concern should be which party has the best interest in the Constitution and the laws that operate under it. Those who are not happy with the 245 year old system here, there are 194 other countries to look at. Four people died on 1/6: all Trump supporters.


If an attack on the US Capitol, while Congress is in the process of doing its constitutional duties, is not an insurrection by US citizens to overthrow an established government, what is it?


Alternative opinions are fine, no alternative facts.

"Deadly" in that the only person who died was an unarmed Trump supporter. When Pelosi and company called it an "insurrection", this was immediately picked up and carried by the main stream (left) media until today. While it was an awful event and perpetrators should be punished according to the law, it was heavily politicized from the start when the investigative committee was hand picked by Pelosi and Schumer. Facts aside, why would anyone trust this committee's findings? No allowance for open, honest and balanced debate. Whether debating the efficacy of children wearing masks or people gaining natural immunity against Covid, there is no open debate allowed or offered by main stream media. They carry water for the CDC and FDA without questions. No wonder people flock to Joe Rogan and Russell Brand to get alternative opinions, no matter how crazy they may seem.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but I am not sure what this poster means by movie to Fishhawk? What's wrong with Fishhawk?

Thanks!

I can kind of understand, because there is a big love hate relationship in the area. Gentrification in your face in the Heights.

I'm sure you know the definition of Gentrification but wanted to post the 2 I pulled up.


"the process whereby the character of a poor urban area is changed by wealthier people moving in, improving housing, and attracting new businesses, typically displacing current inhabitants in the process".


"the process of making someone or something more refined, polite, or respectable".


If there are neighborhoods that are "improving housing, attracting new businesses, making a place more refined , polite and respectable..... Why is this bad? Is is really bad to make a poor neighborhood a better place to live?

Wouldn't it be phenominal to own a house in this neighborhood? Isn't it worse to just leave it like crap?
The people in the neighborhood who owns houses, DONT have to sell, they can stay and reap the benefits of an upcoming neighborhood. The people who rent, Yes, it might suck that their rent could be raised and and force them into a smaller place or a different area but for most all people, I would think this is a good thing.

I think what some tend to forget is owning buildings and renting them out is a business. ****, there are a lot of places in the world I cant afford to live. Such is life!

Nothing. They were trying to make a political reference using demographics, of which they were waaaay off target.

Don’t feed the trolls.

No troll here. The Fish Hawk reference is from another thread of the same poster. It is a community which is geographically furthest from me in Hillsborough. I previously had suggested the OP consider my neighborhood for relocation. After his political post, I asked him to kindly choose a different neighborhood.

Is that moooor on target for you?

The gentrification comment was only part of the original post which Tampa and many cities don't know how to handle displaced population due to rise in cost of living.

Again, the main topic I was trying to stress is that posts are getting flagged or removed when negativity is being posted in reference to rent hikes and cost of living.
