Does the Brooklyn GOP seriously think that "Improve Don't Move" is a positive and hopeful message for Bensonhurst, Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights ???

 
When "neighborhood preservation" is an acceptable tactic, and not just some part of a  bigoted racist rant like "take back our neighborhood" or "make Bay Ridge 'White' again," then you know that things have already passed their tipping point vis a vis the racial, ethnic, social and political makeup of the area

That fact has been brought home by the current GOP-Conservative Party candidate for NY City Council for the 43rd Council District,  everything about whom seems to be a contrived amalgam of racial, ethnic, cultural, social, geographic, and economic backgrounds

If you look at all of Brian Fox's personal characteristics, including the way he dresses, he looks like he was made up by a committee of Bay Ridge bar-types from used items gathered at a Salvation Army Thrift Shop.  

And that's what the Brooklyn Republican and Conservative Parties think is their best shot a getting out a vote in Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Bath Beach and Bensonhurst-Homecrest  

The messaging that those behind Fox are pitching is no better than the candidate   ---   nothing but gloom and doom in the middle of a gloomy-doomy pandemic  ---  Just picture Brian Fox showing up at your front door to tell you that  >>>  "Things have never been this bad before;  but I'm here to tell you to 'Improve don't move...'  and you should start by getting a nice fleece vest just like mine" <<<

I'm sure that the people who saw Brian Fox at the feast on 18th Avenue were equally impressed by the look of the GOP-Conservative candidate for City Council, as they were with everything that he had to tell them about what was wrong with their neighborhood, and how he would be there to improve it for them.
