Irvine might be the worst place in the country for weird authoritarian bullshit. I'm not super well traveled, but it's the creepiest place I've ever been. You can't go anywhere without being reminded that it belongs to the Irvine Company or that you're subject to weirdly particular HOA rules.
Ngl, if some HOA weirdo was getting on my case for existing in a way they didn't I'd just box them in the face. Like seriously, I can't believe the way that people let those HOA people act.
HOAs are a way to judge how much shit the average person can tolerate before they get violent. The entire enterprise hangs on neighbors reporting neighbors with and the distrust that it fosters.
When people collectively tell HOAs to fuck off, corporate America will be worried.
Thankfully, in my country they aren't really a thing (could be a thing in southside Dublin though) . But yeah if your hoa is like that then you probably need to more than just words
