Zuck vs Bay Area NIMBYs… this is going to be a tough one to pick a side on




It's OK to care about what's going on around your home and in your community. "NIMBY" is usually meant to imply that they are being unreasonable in their complaints.

Are you Zuck's neighbor? (...just kidding)

At the individual level, I agree. Generally unfair to have some unzoned private school next to your house shuffling in people constantly. Though I doubt this would get much press if it weren't Zuck or the NIMBYs who can probably pull strings to get a story in the press about their harrowing plight and tormented lives (not saying that's what happened of course, and perhaps the neighbors aren't NIMBYs--who knows)

As a group though, I think Zuck and any NIMBYs deserve each other


The horror of having a small school near your house!

Why not both? ¯ \ _ ( ツ ) _ / ¯

neither actually.
