We always say people should oppose strip malls, but when they do, "progressive" forces refuse to help them, saying that it's their own fault. We should be making ties with people opposed to strip malls and converting them to sustainable development rather than excluding them.

they don't oppose them.
They continually vote for a councillor and mayor who support exactly this type of land-gobbling, sprawling model of development.
Why should I bother fighting for them when they're only going to turn around vote for the same batch of losers in the next election. It's futile.
