It’s a well-worn cycle by this point.
A politician suggests Minneapolis is a charred husk of the city it once was, and Minnesotans take to social media to share picturesque images of its parks and skyline with sarcastic captions. Tuesday was no different.
Former President Donald Trump asserted that the state’s largest city “burned down” during his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris and, within moments, social media was rife with posts depicting grassy hills and scenic sunsets.
You can always tell a Maga if they ask you how you live in Seattle because it’s so “unsafe” lol.
it’s not even a maga thing really, it’s just run of the mill racism.
Soooo many people here in sweden just passively think that our commie-block areas (which are absurdly cheap to live in, and thus poor generally nonwhite people end up there) are inherently more dangerous, and link that to the presence of immigrants.It pains me how incapable people are of figuring out that maybe there’s more crime in areas with lots of people, because there are more people who might decide to do crime :O
But also like, these areas tend to have a frankly stupid high population density, so if anything they’re statistically SAFER!Poorer areas also have a higher potential for poverty induced crime of necessity.
The quickest way to decrease petty crime is to increase the living standard of your “least”
Trump mentioned Seattle as a shithole at this debate and another time. That’s why I said it’s Maga.
I don’t know what you are talking about. My houses gets burned down daily and I get murdered two or three times a week living here…
