It is not so much that cities with racial diversity could never have better design for walkability, but let's not kid ourselves about the cause and effects at play. When you are soft on crime, people are going to respond in other ways. If there is no movement to fix the crime issue, people will seek other ways around the issue. Thus, we get more and more car centric city designs by voters and those who are otherwise unwilling to deal with the crime issue.

For example, this video:

The guy brings up 3 cities, Seattle, Atlanta, and Detroit. One of these things is not like the other. Guess which one? And guess which one was considered more "walkable?" Yes, Seattle. Do you think he was going to be willing to address the elephant in the room on racial demographics? Nope.

Gee, I wonder if there is going to be less desire to build for "walkability" if people are afraid to walk around the neighborhoods.

Been going down the rabbit hole on urban planning channels, out of curiosity given my suspicion that they are being pushed to the forefront as a Trojan horse to the Agenda 21 end goal.

Having cities be less car centric is not something I oppose, but those who are pushing for this model always use cities that just so happen to have a greater amount of racial homogeneity than the typical US cities. They just seem to think that they only factor to account for is the city layout, and nothing else.

@CoolhandJames Any time I see a post on Reddit get 5 figures in upvotes, I am immediately skeptical. Ever since the r/politics page when from being pro-Bernie anti-Hillary to full blown Hillary Clinton shills, it was quite clear that fakery was afoot. Reddit is quite the shithole these days.

Making a poll here. What do you think will happen this coming winter with Europe?

@Giganova8 @WashedOutGundamPilot Simple projection. They think that the degrees and career that they have makes them a catch because they see the kind of man doing the same thing as a catch. So they think if they are also out there doing the same thing, a man also doing that will find them attractive.

Except that is not what men are looking for, and often women who try to climb the corporate ladder sacrifice many aspects of their femininity in the process, thus making them worse of in dating.

@Humpleupagus You fool! This is how they will get you to eat the bugs. And not the "wet bugs."

In order to prevent Klaus Schwab's wet dream of having everyone eat the bugs, we must reject ALL types of bugs. You must give up eating shrimp, crab, and lobster, so that you won't find yourself eating crickets later on.

I don't even see what people think is so great about eating crustaceans. No flavor whatsoever. I could live the rest of my life without eating them and be quite happy.

@Giganova8 @WashedOutGundamPilot The kind of women who are paying 5 figures to a matchmaking service were already hopeless from the start. If they were such catches, they would not need to pay this kind of money to find quality men.

And consider the type of men and women using such a service. Do you think these are type who would likely be highly desireable to the opposite sex? Those who are most wanted do not need to jump through these types of hoops.

@IAMAL_PHARIUS Please tell me that he also paid for the pretend property with pretend money. Because this is the most retarded shit ever if he used really money on this.

Just thought of something. If those that think that the sanctions against Russia are harming the Russian economy in any way also think that Russia was responsible for the Nord stream pipeline attack, then they are just confirming how braindead they are.

This might not apply to that many people, but the legacy media outlets sure want you to buy this and must really have low expectations for their audience's intelligence.

@deprecated_ii Football used to fulfill the purpose of an escape from things like politics, but ever since BLM and other woke politics has been injecting itself into the NFL, watching football no longer operates as an escape.

Not that I really cared about football before, as I have found it to be something I have no desire to follow. I would not suffer even a little bit if the NFL was cancelled.

@blitzdriver This especially applies to regions where mask mandates were sparse or non-existent. It baffles me when I still see people wearing masks.

@spectre My theory is that it was more about this than the aquisition of money. Though I do think that the opportunity for those who were in power and wanting to enrich themselves certainly did it, but I see that as part of the means to the end, which was a power grab.

Having the financial upper hand will certainly help you maintain power. At least as long as the financial system itself remains sound. But it appears that it might be on the verge of collapse itself.

@furgar In fairness, this graph is certainly out of date since it is in 2018 (inflation and eviction moratorium sending rents higher not in effect yet). They should probably include details like where they live, what kind of residence they live in, and if they have any roommates. Especially roommates, because that cuts down expenses tremendously.

Other parts are questionable too, such as health insurance probably being too cheap as well.

@deprecated_ii @RustyCrab Can a crab spray water or create bubbles?

And I have not even touched on how this madness is being done at the expense of our own wellbeing. Like the characters in the story, we are seeing a lot of effort and resources being put in place to push progressive values worldwide, including gay marriage. Are we really willing to put ourselves on the brink of collapse in the name of equality? Not necessarily, but those who are in charge appear to be. So we go further into collapse trying to push for values that won't be there once things break

So when you are forcing others to accept something at the point of a gun, you are not pro-freedom in the slightest. Even if in your mind having gay marriage be legalized is one aspect of freedom, we are not doing goodwill in the world by telling the world they need to tow the line with more "tolerance." As mentioned previously, it does not end simply at letting gay people marry. The slippery slope is no fallacy, but rather a reality. More will be demanded.
