The last time this came up, several people pointed out that the source mistook a parody article for genuine reporting.
This is along the same lines as those "John Cena forgot to save between the cutscene and the boss fight" headlines.

I think its more down to how she seized on her moment of fame to build a brand and try to scratch a better living for herself

Yeah this is not real tho

For some reason she gets quoted with opinions that she never even expressed.

People are using her to make their opinions popular. She's, dare I say, a victim in this situation.

You should have lived through the time of Adam Sandler

Especially on the most lowbrow humour possibility

thats how you get famous , appeal to lowest common denominator

the democratization of broadcasting is not a bad thing

the consumption of it non-stop can be though

The alternative is that not everything needs to be either a skyscraper or a single family home. The phenomenon is called "missing middle housing", even has a wiki article you can read. Some people need to live in a flat due to not being able to afford a house. Property value would drop if middle housing became a thing - because developers wouldn't be able to scalp you on a house you need to have, because you could just get a cheap flat instead. Living in a 6-flat building is an entirely different thing from leaving in a huge block of flats too.

Like half of Europe lives like this.

While there are other options which have been mentioned to death in the comments below. I'd also like to point out that this could be less of an issue if Apartments were not built like absolute trash shit garbage.

There is no reason you could not build an apartment by taking a standard single family home that you would find in a more rural like area and the simply stacking another one on top of it and continuing that until you no longer get approval to go higher.

Apartments are small, with crappy layouts, and generally cheap materials that makes it difficult to sound isolate. We don't have to make them like that we could just make an actual fucking house with proper materials and then just put another fucking house on top of it and another fucking house on top of that one and so on

Whenever people say this, my first response is: you should support building mixed use/mixed density.

You would have an easier time affording a single family home if there were a couple of duplexes, quad plexes, and low rise apartments around, with some small shops in the ground level.

Fewer people competing for the same single family homes and close access to bodegas and bistros. Easier time finding babysitters and dog walkers too.

We don't all have to love like Manhattan. Most of the nicest neighborhood in America are mixed density.

I used to think apartments sucked until I lived in a concrete and brick unit. It was amazing how quiet they were. The concrete walls blocked out all noise of my neighbors and traffic. I made some good friends in the units next to mine and those were honestly 2 of the best years of my life. I miss living like that

That's just not realistic in major metro areas anymore. We need to do more to foster a sense of community in buildings because we can't build enough housing any other way.

I've lived in NYC for ~15 years, in apartments, and I almost never hear neighbors. Nor have any of my friends complained about loud neighbors often. Problems with neighbors and noise is not an inherent property of apartments.

Is the alternative that we all rent/buy (?) apartments?

No

duplexes/triplexes/etc. exist. And single-family housing does exist in mixed zoning areas. An SFH next to a duplex next to an apartment building is common in my city. However, in this case, the "back yard" is probably enough for a small garden and a bbq, but not a large lawn...which is fine, because there are parks in walking distance.

Ideally, I'd like to not really have neighbors at all after my lifetime of experiences.

Then city and suburbs aren't really for you, and it sounds like something very rural would suit you, and those around you, better.

Then you agree that zoning should not force people to only live in one kind of home.

She's famous for vociferously promoting spitting on a man's penis for use as lubricant during oral sex.

She recently started a podcast called "TALK TUAH" which is a pun of her "catchphrase" "HAWK TUAH" (the sound of spitting). It's been a meme to make up topics she talks about.

Cares

…that low density zoning fits less people per square meter and requires more infrastructure than higher density housing?

No, its a meme format, the whole tuah thing is ridiculous and completely unserious, so you attribute to her serious and heavy topics

Poor health? My air is certainly cleaner than downtown NYC.

Now if major cities banned cars we'd be getting somewhere.
