Mighty Rich Thypin

May 1, 2022

Oh ho ho, now that is mighty rich, mighty rich Thypin.

“My family owns literal buildings but you baby brain clowns with just ~*one*~ home? Ha! You red-nose losers have, like, a degenerative ~*brain*~ disease. Not those of us who, like, you know, own hundreds of homes, nope, not us: we’re immune!!! But you guys?!? Omg you are so mentally ill!!!!😤🍼😫”

I mean, how many homes do you own, Open New York founder?

In, like, all those buildings that you and your family own?

In all those portfolios you and your family have?

This is right by my house and I’m absolutely disgusted by some of my neighbors rn. It’s def not a coincidence that the leader of one of these newly formed opposition groups is someone who ran for city council last year and prob will again. Rank demagoguery and opportunism. https://t.co/QOdBWjFxvG

Your family owns scores of buildings and properties.

Doesn’t that, like, you know, make you all homeowners, or landlords, a hundred times over? What a veritable Thypin sea of “degenerative brain disease,” huh?

You, mighty rich Thypin, a steel heir, disparage other people for daring to own *one* home when you and your family own enough real estate to house a small village of humans.

Maybe that’s the real “disease” here.

Because, really, Ben Carlos Thypin, is an average homeowner’s behavior truly a “degenerative brain disease” or is it just your own sociopathy

(Except your sickness is times one hundred.)

I am at a community meeting in which a Mitchell Lama co-op owner just went on a rant about how homeowners view things differently than renters and then asked the state elected in attendance to give co-op owners like him more money. Homeownership is a degenerative brain disease.

basically

there’s actually ppl i used to know in govt who believe black ppl are cashing in on gentrification & getting bank off their brownstones despite not providing evidence of this happening widely??? i know investors harass black homeowners w/ low ball offers & most don’t want to sell https://t.co/70gTzCdc2u

I know an investor, too: Ben Carlos Thypin’s very own Quantierra

(Thypin himself is also a landlord, many times over)

East Flatbush rallies against over-development

That time when Ben Carlos Thypin’s Quantierra employee, @marketurbanism Stephen J. Smith, tried to con black property owners out of a fair price

Hi Evan, while I am a landlord (tho I am mostly a broker and routinely advocate for more supply despite its threat to my buildings’ income), CHTU impugns my integrity and erases/insults the 100s of volunteer members of ONY bc they don’t have any substantive arguments to proffer.
— Ben Carlos Thypin (@SoBendito) May 4, 2022

If i were you I'd sell your property to your tenants so they form a co-op. Landlordism is inherently parasitical on society

I'm ngl, it's pretty hypocritical to be a yimby and be a landlord
— Evan Cholerton 🌎 (@evancholerton) May 4, 2022

“ngl”

“It’s pretty hypocritical to be a yimby and be a landlord”

Well open NY let’s start by demanding those current developers who build an abundance of high rise buildings all over the Bx charging $3000-$4000, bring those rentals to affordable! $3,000 a month is not affordable! Make every appt affordable not a %!
— Svitaliti (@Svitaliti1) May 13, 2022

Dare you to do it, OpenNY 🤷‍♀️

think about who makes up that electorate. It's NIMBY city.

But before you move, show your 990 form: we triple dog dare you👋

Why do we need a homeowner advocate in @NYCHousing when we already have community boards advocating for homeowners almost every weeknight? pic.twitter.com/9hO06KrTf1

How many “homes” do you own
— Cea Weaver (@ceaweaver) May 23, 2022

Do you mean how many does Ben Thypin own, Cea Weaver, you ridiculous lying hypocrite?

and to think some said this joke was hyperbolic and inappropriate https://t.co/nsFWX50idU
— Ben Carlos Thypin (@SoBendito) May 27, 2022

In SF, YIMBYs are politically aligned with conservative property owners. Might be different where you are, but that’s the reality here.
— Dean Preston (@DeanPreston) May 28, 2022

In NYC, yimbys *are* conservative property owners

👋

I embrace the term landlord and any of my fellow Landed-Americans who don't feel comfortable with being referred to as such are babies. https://t.co/hwRpRh41af
— Ben Carlos Thypin (@SoBendito) June 1, 2022

also non-profit, cooperative, and public housing providers are also landlords. Landlord is a description of an inherently adversarial relationship between those who own property (and are ostensibly responsible for its upkeep) and those who ~rent that property from them.
— Ben Carlos Thypin (@SoBendito) June 1, 2022

Ben Carlos Thypin is the type to pull that nonsense. That’s why he’s in Federal Court for lowering the wages of people who speak out against sexual harassment and abuse. That’s why he talks about affordable housing while destabilizing buildings.
— North Brooklyn IBZ Loft Tenants (@IbzNorth) January 12, 2022

Ben Carlos Thypin, wage-lowerer

What are we supposed to do other then advocate for more housing Ben? Get out our hammer and nails? The fact is your so preoccupied with trying to protect your image you have to denigrate existing prop owners even if they agree with you.

Do these people really believe that the world is divided into YIMBYs and NIMBYs, and they are some enlightened master race? Steel heir's little cult is getting out of control. https://t.co/od5bU6cXtt
— Todd Fine – tfine.eth (@tfine) August 7, 2022

steel heir cult😤🍼😫

I look at real estate listings all day – If there’s a squatter in a building, an agent will almost always mention it, as they don’t want to waste time with buyers who aren’t prepared to deal with a situation like that.
— Ben Carlos Thypin (@SoBendito) August 15, 2022

My very real business experience in this industry for decades is not an ideology. Since you are so quick to ascribe this all to ideology, remember Ben, you inherited a fortune, you didn’t earn it. There is a big difference.

I notice that Aaron Carr is filing more lawsuits. Now in one of his lawsuits he named Edward Cuccia as a defendant. Edward Cuccia is a supporter of Chris Marte and has fought to stop the Chinatown jail. https://www.scribd.com/document/575724507/Housing-Rights-Initiat-v-Housing-Rights-Initiat-Summons-Complaint-1#from_embed

  The lawsuit claims Aaron Carr’s profitable nonprofit Housing Rights Initiative (HRI) endured “bodily harm😤🍼😫” by the defendants, a laughable assertion, typical of dishonest, victim complex, white savior yimbys. Aaron, who is a “capstone🥺😭” at shady republican pac org New Leaders Council, has also claimed he has “over a hundred screenshots” of my tweets, demonstrating how much of a racist homophobic bigot I am. But poor ol Aaron can only seem to find the same one screenshot of one single tweet where I called yimbys “twinks and bears” and which he has repeatedly posted as “proof” of my “hatred.”
  
  For years at this point, I have asked Aaron Carr to show those other “hundred” screenshots and I am not alone in still waiting for him to do so https://fuelgrannie.com/2022/01/20/freefuelgrannies-screenshots/
  
  Aaron lies about everything.
  
  He cannot be trusted in any way, the ultimate wolf in sheep’s clothing. One of his biggest backers (aside from so-true-bestie landlord/developer and OpenNY founder Ben Carlos Thypin) is Mitchell Draizin.
  
  If you want to know more about Aaron Carr, do a deep dive search into Mitchell Draizin: the connected dots don’t lie.
  
  As well, Aaron Carr earns so much money as the CEO at his own “nonprofit” that he donates thousands of dollars to OpenNY-endorsed candidates as he and Ben Thypin attempt a yimby political power grab, which entails both getting their own endorsed candidates into office while they also attempt to disable community boards and community input at large.
  
  But we see them, we know what they’re doing and we call them out: their greatest enemy is our open mouth.

    I know about Mitchell Draizin including how he’s on the board of governors of the Jim Owles Liberal Democratic Club who endorsed Ryder Kessler over Glick. Jim Owles asked candidates on their endorsement questionnaire about whether they’d take real estate contributions but have a real estate investor on their board of governors, Mitchell Draizin. Its either hypocrisy or wanting to replace one group of real estate interests with themselves. Real estate is a shark business and that theory cannot be discounted.

      I look at any Jim Owles endorsement with a side eye for this very reason (Émilia Decaudin *cough*). And Mitchell Draizin is also aligned with the board of the New York City Economic Development Corporation (EDC) so there’s yet another red flag🚩.
