When uppity white people move into a ghetto and take over the real estate, which fucks over the current residents. Usually followed by the opening of a shit ton of Starbucks, Nordstroms, and Whole Foods.
Uppity white mom: excuse me, where can I find kale and quinoa around here?
local resident: fuck, this gentrification shit needs to stop

Get the Gentrification mug.Gentrification is when businesses and homes are built in shitty, run-down neighbourhoods, which means the people who live there will actually have to work for a living if they want to pay the rent instead of beating up and mugging old ladies.
Hey man, you can't mess with our hood, that's gentrification! Wait, you're leaving? That's white flight, you stupid ass crackkka! Racist!

Get the gentrification mug.When city council displaces renters to house the homeless. Akin to free energy proponents believe that making people homeless will solve homelessness.
Imminent signs of Reverse Gentrification include large encampments of tents and homeless people at parks or other public locations, that move elected officials to buy your rental homes to solve the problem.
Usually results in urban charm to your neighborhood. You can expect frequent visits from police, fire department and other first responders.

Tenant1: We all got notice to vacate and I'm not sure we can stay in the area.
Tenant2: No worries. I hear Reverse Gentrification is helping out folks like us.
Council1: I got a great idea, let's buy homes to shelter homeless!
Council2: Displace people to house people, you mean Reverse Gentrification?
Council1: Yes...And we could harness free energy to pay the utilities!
Council2: Aren't we smart!

Get the Reverse Gentrification mug.The appropriating and reclaiming of historically cis/het forms of media. Often with a view to including other sexualities and genders, or creating an exclusively LGBT+ space.

Get the Bentrification mug.The act of something being changed or influenced by Zeitro. most notably, via Zeitro's branding and subsidiaries.
I like the Zeitrofication of our bikes.
I think Chester needs more Zeitrofication.
The Zeitrofication of the visualizers really make the video better.
