Other than gangs, echo park and silverlake is filled with transplants, not natives. Acting out how they think Angelinos act and dress. In 2003 they were all wearing hats, now they all have beards.

I was unaware that there was an ancient tribe of Angelenos. It must feel terrible to see those people who have only been there for two decades misappropriate centuries of culture.
 
Well, shit. I didn't even now he had announced another tour. But how the f*** am I to know my schedule for August 2019? Thankfully his local tix won't go on sale until March here.

it is. it was highly entertaining when local gangs in Echo Park made jumping hipsters a part of their initiation. that was the early 00s. unfortunately the gentrification won and native Angeleno hispanics could never afford to buy a house in Echo Park again. Boyle Heights had a more successful campaign recently to drive white hipsters out. one guy voluntarily relocated his art gallery shortly after opening.
 
Juuuuuuuust making sure: when 'hipsters' move in, it's 'gentrification by those bastard hipsters.'

When other people moved in, it was "hard workers who built the city."

Right?

People vs people = sometimes healthy

People vs H&M and Starbucks = sometimes not
