"People don't deserve to live where they grew up. The history of America is, 'you go where there is opportunity'" -- Ben Shapiro talking about NYC (twitter.com)

If you are forced to move from the city you grew up in while also being filled with migrants then the system is broken

For some reason, none of those assorted Hispanics in NYC seem to have a problem with high housing costs.

I'm still digesting the 50 year betrayal from yesterday, but this is a good chaser to it because it shows one of the key problems with boomer thinking about housing. Ben says America is all about picking up stakes and moving from established places like NYC to exciting new places where real estate is cheap and there's all kinds of opportunities to make money. Here's the problem with that. The places with opportunity ARE PLACES LIKE NYC AND SF.

What are you going to do, declare some town in Idaho the next Palo Alto because housing is cheap due to the only employers being the hospital and school? Uh yeah, no. There's a little more to it than that.

So if you want to move, you move to NYC and be poor while you chase art or something, or try to get in on one of our late stage empire scams (AI/finance). Or you can pursue that stuff on the internet, but that doesn't build a hot new city does it?

Flippantly telling young people to uproot & chase economic opportunity also encourages the destruction of community and social supports.

You leave behind your parents, your extended family, your friends, your church, your social activities, etc. If you establish yourself "away", you lose access to free childcare & babysitting from your parents.

In a time of renewed White identitarianism, telling young people to deracinate & atomize themselves further for "line go up" is what got us into trouble in the first place.

Not to mention that if young White people can't afford to live in places like NYC, why can infinity immigrants?

Here's the worst thing: they can't afford to live in their home towns either, because it's almost the same price as living in a city, and there aren't any entry-level jobs that pay well enough to ever possibly allow them to buy a house. Particularly since 2020, home prices everywhere have skyrocketed.

People always forget that relatively most places in America are pretty fucked equally when it comes to "Available jobs to cost of living." Certain cities are obviously more fucked, but fucked nonetheless.

Sure Bumfuck, Kentucky might have a 4bed and 10 acre property for 100k, but unless you know a guy or have a very specific trade skill you are going to be working for very little out of the available job pool. Whereas a major city will charge you millions for a home, but it also has a lot of jobs that theoretically you can get to support yourself.

Its just another point against little Benji's mindset. It treats rural and quiet towns as these bustling lands of opportunity, when the reason why people left them for big cities in the first place was because you had little to pick from to begin with. Unless you are starting a farm or similar home business, most of the jobs are already spoken for.

And rent prices are so absolutely batshit insane that it’s hard to even try and get a nest egg for a house. My wife and I are at this stage and it seems whenever we have the cash to start thinking about a house, something pops up that drains half the money from the account

This little rat is bleeding subscriptions left and right since he's been forced to reveal his true loyalties (as if most of us didn't already know). Israel First and you're an anti semite nazi if you dare disagree

The goyim, especially whites, must become economic marauders. Only jews have the right to plant their roots.

Not only are they the only ones with that right, it includes having everyone else pay for it

Jews live in literally 3 places in the entire country: NYC, LA, and Miami, and that includes Ben who grew up in LA and now lives in Florida, despite his job being in Nashville.

Do what he says, not what he does.

If you're young and not White, he's right.

If you're young and White, you deserve to be here more than the non-Whites.

It's that simple.

Remember, (((Shapiro))) is a subversive and will espouse views and give advice he knows is terrible in the attempt to get the goys to take the bait. Meanwhile, he'll do the smart thing and look out for his and his people's interests and ignore the advice and "wisdom" he gives.

The promise of these dense cities was to maximize social and job opportunity while living in a 10x10 room to save money. You need money to buy land in the middle of nowhere and you need money to buy a reliable car for your 150 mile commute. Young Americans should not just surrender to the private investment driving up costs, and the endless subsidized foreigners willing to live like rats.

You don’t get to tell actual Americans to leave their city or town just because jews bought everything and have made it too expensive for the commoner to live there. This is our land, OUR ancestors built these cities, NOT YOURS. Idc what some banker piece of paper says about who owns the structures you Jews say you own. I can’t wait to take everything away from these slimy fucks.

Hate Nick Fuentes all you want, the fact that he's helped cause the crash out of these parasites is one of the greatest things you can do for the conservative movement

Rip up your roots and move somewhere unfamiliar.

This ensures it's more difficult for you to build wealth, manage emergencies, and puts you strictly at the mercy of the government.

Fuck you, Ben. You represent the very forces and people trying to destroy our freedom and enslave this world.

And take off that retarded hat, no one is buying the "pious podcaster" routine. Fucking ridiculous clown.

Anyways.. apply the same logic to isreal. They apparently can't afford to live in the desert and defend themselves without trillions of us dollars going to support them. MAYBE IF THE JEWS CAN'T AFFORD IT THEY NEED TO MOVE OUT OF THE HOLY LAND.

Fuck I hate this guy.

Why do the Jews complain so much about to move so often then?

The boomer/jewish ethos of "muh bootstraps, nobody owes you anything" rings hollow because in practice only productive people are expected to pay their own way. And it gets harder every year.

I don't even know what Ben is trying to accomplish at this point, he has to know that's not a winning message and that everyone can see right through him, right?
