A book that Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson made that was more or less expanding YIMBYism to a monocausal issue, which made a lot of people who were already pretty-anti YIMBY mad.

Importantly, it also made the pro-YIMBYs mad because those two have spent a fair amount of time leftpunching in areas that don't even ostensibly relate to the premise at all, such as trans rights, which means the whole thing has been an obstacle on the broader trend of leftwing YIMBY acceptance.
