That part of Brooklyn is also incredibly gentrified and the idea of anyone being scared while walking the streets there is loving hilarious. Was it the IKEA or the golf course that struck terror into his gentle heart? The dozens of moms pushing baby strollers? Too many foreign food options?

All this where is safer discourse came from the guy who made The Wire using Beirut as a throwaway example of lib-brained “we are safer here” and he doubled and quadrupled down when being shown actual murder rates that undermined the example.

Anyone who says "downtown Philly" (that tweet) or "midtown Philly" (Dr oz) or "Southside Philly" (GOP state lawmakers trying to impeach the Philly DA) is an idiot and/or has never been to Philly.

A bit long at 8 mins but it's worth listening to the racist caller getting his arguments that Sunak doesn't love Britian enough like Boris Johnson shot down and finally admits that the real reason is Sunak isn't white. https://twitter.com/RashmiWriting/status/1583912019769831425?s=20&t=UsbLBZKx_KUjUWP24qQHUA Sunak may be a Tory shithead that'll continue to rip apart the country but he's too brown to be a real Tory leader!

I'd feel bad for the guy if he suffered in any way beyond "potentially not becoming prime minister" because of this kind of racism, but it's really just kind of funny. I mean, it's probably not funny to British Indians who aren't Tory MP billionaires but also have to deal with those types of comments, but it is kinda funny that it's happening to him specifically.

it comes up in the thread but it's really just boiled down to 'people have no control over the problems causing their lives to be actively in danger constantly like climate change or the pandemic or foreign policy poo poo so they cling to their one bit of 'power' that comes from 'yell at the weird tradcath for having a garden'.'

In one city I lived in it would’ve been harder to find and more expensive to live in a place *without* a garden because the only apartments were in the center of town with jacked up rent. Of course our “garden” was like 20 square meters of mostly gravel but still
