Because poor minorities LOVE to have their sleep interrupted between shifts or, god forbid, when they're trying to improve their situation in some way.
Oh I forgot, those people aren't really racial minorities, they're 'oreos' or 'uncle toms' or whatever. Sorry, author, you're right, respecting others is white supremacy.
On another note, do you think this is why a lot of inner city kids hate the wilderness? They're so used to the constant noise they feel frightened and lost without it? Like your average consumer when they can't access their Netflix account.
I live in a city near a busy street and sometimes wish I had one of those disturbingly silent rooms they make for audio experiments, where you can hear nothing but your stomach churning. People say they can't last more than a few minutes in those rooms, but I imagine it would be bliss.
Well yeah, urban living is horrible. But most "urbanites" who are affluent enough to consider going out to the woods often enough to make a judgement call of it being too quiet, have probably been to the suburbs where it is even quieter.
If I turn off my fan in my little suburban/semirural house here, it is SILENT. The trees are all carefully trimmed to not rustle much, for what little wind is possible thanks to the mass sprawl. No animal calls, not even many bugs to chirp. No cars this late. And no drunken people stumbling about screaming at midnight, either. No wildlife noises, no nature noises, no environmental noises, and no people noises. Those guys in action movies who go "it's quiet, too quiet." would be driven nuts.

It quite literally is. At least two articles have been written about City Urban Liberal Types hating the woods because it was top quiet.
Which is weird, because I've been to the woods, and it is pretty noisy, compared to quieter suburbs.
It's nowhere near as noisy as city traffic
