The warehouse known as "The Ghost Ship" housed artists and...well...squatters. On that night, a rave was on the second floor. When the fire started...it seemed the only way out was the first floor. 33 confirmed dead...so far.
At first I thought "Good...filthy hippies." Then it occurred to me..the bay area is super expensive. These people had to live stacked because these fucking asshole landlords have jacked prices so high, it's not only poor people who live like this anymore. California...which one are you? They vote liberal but we're fighting money grubbing jerks. Which one is it? Can we be honest with ourselves? For instance...be honest that Oakland doesn't welcome poor artist. JUST BE FUCKING HONEST. You don-t want artists in that town. Don't pretend you're progressive. You risk more idiots thinking California will help you.
Let me help some of you thinking about coming to Cali..."fuck off (unless you're already rich)"
