You do you boo. I choose to live far away from density, subsidized housing, weed odors from neighbors, and mentally unstable hobos outside of my door.

To each their own.

Wow that’s quite an inaccurate picture.

You do know that drug use and OD rates are higher in rural populations, right?

I really don’t care. If my neighbors use drugs inside of their own homes and OD, it’s their choice.

It's Fox News. An elderly relative - who lived in Manhattan in the 70s and 80s - now believes NY is too dangerous to visit.

Meanwhile the crime rate in some of these cities is the lowest in years.

Is it just that they’re watching news max or Fox all day long?

Because they want to believe it. Remember these sheeple are stupid and uninformed.

Well yeah, your relative is right in a way. In the 70s and 80s your elderly relative was young and robust, and could carry a gun in Manhattan to defend him/herself. Now he or she is much more frail.

She was concerned for me and my kid. We are not frail, do not carry guns, were not the victim of any crimes even on the subway.

No we don't assume all blue cities are violent and crime ridden. Just the ones that don't enforce the law and let criminals get away with crime.
If they are locking up toothpaste, that is not a good sign.

It's part of the psyops to justify putting troops on the streets to chill and intimidate voters in the future.

Her loss. Plenty of other people happy to take the theater ticket she isn't going to buy or the restaurant table space she won't enjoy.

The elderly President who also lived in Manhattan in the 70s and 80s now believes NY is too dangerous to visit. And says so all the time. He watches Fox News all day and thinks Portland is literally on fire and there aren’t any stores there anymore.

It's because most MAGA have never taken public transportation or walked around a city as a youth. It's probably not so much Fox News, but their parents when they were young and the local news they watch. Fox News just confirms the bias.

Chump probably never walked an entire NYC block in his life. He gets all his hot takes about city life from behind tinted windows in the back of cars, both in NYC and in DC. Btw 80s/90s Penn Station, Midtown, Port Authority, Times Square, north of 110th St, etc. were way more sketch than today. It's why people know who Curtis Sliwa is.

Trust me, you don't wanna dig deeper and focus on that. Because then you're getting into racism territory.

When the meth manufacturing house next door blows up, there can be collateral damage.

Came back to my job at a rural.college after Christmas vacation to find one of my staff was out to repair damage to their house, cause the meth heads next door miscalculated.

I have so many other messed up stories I can tell from my time in the rural American South - and I'm a white southern woman.
