Although I understand what you’re saying, that still doesn’t explain jt to normal people.

Ah, I see. Well, the thing that’s got these protesters upset is that poorer people are being evicted - sometimes forcibly - from their homes because they can no longer afford them because of rising property prices due to outside investment and improvement of the surrounding area. I think gentrification and the lower crime and other positive effects that come with it is generally a good thing, but I can understand that it sucks to be forced out of your home through no fault of your own too.
