The same has been happening with NIMBY's in the bay area for years.

I silently follow a private facebook group for a bay-area city (which you need prove you're a resident of to get access) and it's an echo chamber of xenophobia, anti-tech bias, and misguided hate.

Hopefully they appreciate the irony of using a Facebook group to complain about the influence of... companies like Facebook

Ah, I didn't know this was a thing. I'll tell people I work at Peets from now on. I don't really care if those damn starbucks lovers hate me. They can eat it!
