Strangely many Red & Blue politicians in Arizona WANT & STILL support #datacenters here. They'd rather give AZs severely limited water supply to hedge funds & tech oligarchs than their own constituents. Tucson rejected a data center, but it was built right next door anyway by #pimacounty CrAzy😵‍💫Mofos

40 out of 41 state and local measures restricting data centers passed on election night.

The people have issued a resounding rejection of Big Tech's attempt to trample on their communities.

Is it any wonder why?

Your Tucson reference is out of date. #projectblue has since been approved by #pimacounty and they have drilled into the aquifer to extract 30+ million gallons of water per year right UNDER the data center, with no environmental safeguards in place. It's truly insane & green lit by state regulators.

Airbnb is trash. Just stay in a hotel, it is cheaper anyway. No one wants these unregulated, unzoned, absentee owned, hotels in their neighborhoods. #PimaCounty should tax them and map them.
