[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Boston native who has lived in DC over 20 years now. Not only is Boston a racist city, the racism is especially insidious because it’s cloaked by an artificial veneer of liberalism or progressivism. Massachusetts uses 400 year-old colonial boundaries to pen impoverished minority communities into specific cities, towns, and neighborhoods. Boston certainly has its share of history, cultural institutions, and an “educated” (i.e. mostly white, wealthy, and privileged) population. Here’s the funny thing: Most other large cities in the country have the same. Boston also has this annoying arrogance that suggests and dupes others into believing its history and cultural institutions are somehow superior to everything else. They’re not. Boston is insanely overpriced. Most of its housing is old and growing more decrepit. Its highway infrastructure is horribly obsolete. Its transit infrastructure is falling apart and only getting worse. Many of its suburbs are unremarkable and overly car-centric. And the winters are brutal. DC is far from perfect but I prefer it to Boston. [/quote] This is definitely true. Their racism is covered up and disguised as progressive, however, be a poc and say that you like something outside of their progressive world view and they will shun you to the ends of the planet.
