They are saying the biggest problem with the poor communities you're talking about is the people living in them. That seems true statistically no? Or at least, there's more data that supports that than the idea that there's magic soil in the rich communities.

Are we going to pretend like communities aren't shaped by their people now and everybody is just NPCs that has no influence over what their communities look like?

We can at least rule out that poor people can't make good communities because there are plenty of counterexamples that show otherwise.

Maybe if you took one step farther out, you would see that the reasons some people and communities are poor are due to external factors. But go on, keep blaming all your problems on the individual poor people that obviously have something wrong with them.

Well, I didn't say I had any problems so I'm not sure what you're even referencing here. Weird strawman

Oh spare me. This is like reaching algebra and thinking you've reached the frontier of mathematics in 2026. As if nature vs nurture wasn't drilled into every prepubescent brain in even the worst school systems in the west. It seems that you're the one that's unable to escape elementary pop psychology.

I see from your history you have some incredibly bad takes and analogies that simply don’t work. Most of what you say I doubt even you understand. For your own sake, go get out of whatever bubble you’re in for 5 minutes.
