the catchphrase “affordable housing” has developed a numb versatility between anti-gentrifcation propaganda and luxury condo listings. its good-intentioned repetition is necessarily mystifying due to decades-long collaboration between local politicians and real estate speculators, and recently tech. this fuckery culminates around the maliciously calculated san francisco bay area median income, which allows persons with six figures to qualify for below market rate housing. these circumstances effectively transform the anti-gentrification normative demand for more housing into a shunning of the most desperate need. for those interested in the truly broad distribution of life chances it might be more effective to focus on calling for “subsidized housing”, intervening upon the ongoing criminalization of encampments and the encroaching criminalization of what’s left of rent control.
