Cities, in a nation of forced multiculturalism, are tumors
Problem is, if cities die the cancer spreads.
Spreads thin and then gets surrounded by white cells.
Which then get corrupted and spread further.
You wrongly assume all cancer cells are equally strong.
Then we burn everything. With Radiation & Laser fire.
Sounds about right.
Wall 'em off.
I suspect that as the economy gets more and more turbulent, a lot of the economic migrants will return to their countries of origin.
Yea right. The vast majority that come here are those who aren't even wanted in their own countries. They cannot go back.
The few that will go back are the ones who have prospects at home, i.e. those who have been productive members of society.
Plus, leftist governments are going to wring every last cent out of their citizens to keep the free gibs for the freeloaders going.
A significant percentage of migrants are literal hardened criminals. Their countries encourage them to come here so that their governments don’t have to pay for their incarceration.
As if the local hardened criminals aren't being released into the streets.
I don't think it's a significant amount at all.
Vast majority come here for money.
I feel like they'd be the last ones allowed to fail. They'd get gibs and then a bailout
It only stops when there's literally no more of other people's money to spend
Spreading thin and away from their inhospitable shit holes, policies are less effective at keeping them on life-support. Pushing them out of cities is a good thing.
Don't underestimate the sheer number of leftists fleeing the cities. Many blue states are only blue in the big cities and that's enough to carry the whole state. There are enough to create footholds in rural areas and start spreading the same cancer there until they take over.
Leftist policy survives off "gibs me free stuff", a concept that is neither feasible nor encourages outside urban shitholes. The very landscape encourages a greater degree of self-sufficiency which ultimately shifts mindsets away from the "I'm entitled to the fruits of everyone elses labour, and they should forcibly share with me" mentality that leftism is often predicated upon. Environment matters A LOT for the formation of ideologies, including how the environment ultimately forces or doesn't force certain actions. The more independent you need to be, the less likely you are to demand some entity force others to provide for you.
Ideologies require hospitable environments. There's a reason the rural is more right-wing and the urban is left-wing. Because those environments literally encourage the mentalities that are the cornerstone of the ideologies.
I don't know, I find it weird that people consider it good to be in a huge crowd. I don't care how supposedly good a food place is, I am not waiting hours. Nor do I want to be forced to slow walk through life because of crowds. Similarly, why is overburdened public transport good? Facilities that look like the mongols just went through them?
Was at the shops a few hours ago, somehow I got stuck behind the same slow ass moving couple of women 3 times. Then when at the checkout a completely different set of 3 women were spending fucking ages talking to the checkout operator while I was trying to buy literally one thing. Had I been about 2 minutes sooner I probably could have gone to another checkout that had just closed at I got to it.
Of course just as I got near the front of the checkout I was in they decided to re-open the other one which had just closed.
And they never found the bodies...🤡Good, we need to learn that having people squeezed into a small area to live next to each other is a bad idea.
That does not mean build houses everywhere, that should mean start actually working on space travel and having people live on another planet, then send the rocket with the leftists into the sun.
It is actually going to mean population reduction.
Well, yes, launching a rocket filled with many people into the sun would reduce the population by some amount, I'd assume. It'd be weird if it raised it instead.
So the lazy approach than the "as soon as you look up, it's obvious" approach.
There is more than enough land for people to live on and I for one do not welcome my space tyrant overlords making me live like a slave on their colonies
I'll be honest, at this rate we may be heading more towards an Expanse level of future and that's if we are lucky!
Let's send three rockets, the lefties go in a direction we know has no life or planets for millions of years. The hardened criminals get sent into the sun. The third one is sent to begin the moon colony.
No you got it wrong!
You send the rocket with the hardened criminals into the place with weird Aliens and insect Aliens, then we get Starcraft!
I'm for it. Squadron 42 will rule them too!
"... and that's a good thing."
They forgot their usual suffix.
No it's not. All the fleeing rats will infest small towns and rural areas.
It depends. Do cities attract leftists or do cities create leftists? It's bad if it's the former, its good if it's the latter.
Cities attract 3rd world migrants. 3rd world migrants vote leftist because of the free gibs and to import more of their "culture". That's why demographics are destiny and why every leftist government is flooding the West with non-Western migrants.
Cities create leftists who try to attract youth and turn them into more leftists.
Maybe they'll deradicalize out there, surrounded by reasonable peers.
"I view great cities as pestilential to the morals, the health and the liberties of man. True, they nourish some of the elegant arts; but the useful ones can thrive elsewhere; and less perfection in the others, with more health, virtue and freedom, would be my choice." -- Thomas Jefferson
You know why I want a mobile job? Because cities are dying. They have the cause and effect wrong.
The only reason I ever cared about living in a city is because I thought it would be a great way to make new friends, enjoy a good work environment with some comrades, go to great restaurants with my group of friends, sleep with a lot of beautiful women, have fun parties, have fun events etc...
Well, real life today is that cities don't offer any of that shit. Society is trash. Why be in a city if the people in the city are garbage?
If we had a unified culture with good people where you can go out in the city and enjoy things, then you wouldn't want a mobile job, you'd want to he in the city.
People are pushing for mobile jobs to get out of cities because cities are dying because of other problems in our culture. It isn't to be do mobile jobs killing cities.
Hell is other people.
Based, cities are unnatural

I spent much of my childhood in San Francisco in the 1970s and 80s. I have a lot of fond memories of that time. By the time I was in the 3rd grade I was taking public transit to and from school and keeping myself amused after school till my mom got home. I guess I was around 8 years old. I recall having a good time fighting a huge battle with like 30 kids from the neighborhood shooting finger guns at each other on the stoops with not a parent in sight until the streetlights came on. Spent the weekends riding a bike in Golden Gate park and having stick "sword" fights with the neighbor kids.
The place really changed in the 2000s and became dangerously unpleasant with mentally ill homeless lurking everywhere and crime. And the politics got increasingly deranged. But some of that derangement is really recent, like post Obama / Trump. For instance as recently as 2012 I attended a Ron Paul rally at the SF civic center that was entirely peaceful. Wasn't a single deranged leftist protesting or throwing feces. Impossible to imagine that occuring now.
I do a hybrid schedule and go in twice a week. I’m fine with it
Cities work just fine until the founding population spontaneously decides they have to move out of walking distance from the neighborhoods they've lived in for decades. Nobody has ever been able to figure out why white people just abandon their homes all of a sudden.
COULD IT BE AN INFLUX OF NIGGERS
Clearly the only possible conclusion is that Whiteness is a cancer that must be eliminated from the Earth.
Good
The urbanites fear the death of their leftist squalor. Without centralised hubs, they cannot hope to win advocacy of centralised planning.
Good.
Good.
