The maelstrom of tormented souls over Brooklyn is moving into Queens. The Gowanus Canal, which has transformed into a gigantic, seemingly sentient slug-like creature, is following behind it.

I'll tell you one thing people in New York are fucking PISSED about all the money being spent and trouble from the migrant crimewave all while paying for these people ot live in hotels for free. I was watching a thing and even the migrant guy was like what people shouldn't get immediately released for doing violent crimes thats dumb as hell they should be deported for ruining it for the good people. Even the migrant guy said it. How dumb can you get?

I was all for criminal justice reform but when you enact totally dumbass nonsense policies you basically only encourage criminal people to do more crimes and folks get hurt. These ultra left idealists need to get "woke" to reality and only serve to make true progressives look foolish. The political backlash from this will be intense.

Yeah this just continues to prove that there's no humanity in those truckers. They know they have power to withold important things so they do.
New York is fucked up for alot of reasons alot of it being left wing policies
However right this moment the reason its in serious trouble is vidincitive truckers that took a political event not perpetrated New Yorkers but a judge. So that judge sucks so no one gets food anymore? Fuck you
The worst part is you know the issues made from this are going to be on tv with the headline dem run NY crumbling to pieces because of migrants
At this moment that's only half true now it's migrants and truckers fucking up the state.

Who knows. Everything you hear about it is being self reported by the truckers who say they are participating.
These people are so dumb. This trial was held in NY state court, prosecuted by the attorney general of New York State.

Probably little to none considering new york pays for everything in the country. The reason shit is like $3 in shithole Alabama is because it's $15 in New York. Not only do they pay for everything they also import everything and are not only the major north south corridor but also the hub east to west coast. Funny how this trucker doesn't have a clue how trucking works. Only an idiot would think this would ever fly/not fuck up shit for everyone in the country.

How is New York fucked up?
It has a murder rate that is lower than the US as a whole, which is amazing considering itās the biggest city in the country.
Some stupid bitch posted on Twitter how she wished we could go back to the glory days of the 90s. In 1990 there were 2300 murders in NYC. Last year there were 380.

It's not apocalyptic fucked up like some would want you to believe but it has problems forsure. Taxes here in cali and in New York are sky high because of important social programs the feds won't provide. Some like Calfresh are vitally important. Helping migrants/homeless is important but imo there is a limit. Even when it just comes the the homeless in San Fran, many businesses have just had to close because theft is so rampant.
In California we have gone farther then just allowing migrants in but creating new programs, expanding access to unemployment for or trying to at least. There's a program called CAPI, which is helping migrants that are elderly or disabled with a monthly payment. I'd love for us to be able to do that but I think it's hurting Californians to keep expanding finacial aid for immigrants.
Before, liberals like myself believed that most migrants deserved a chance at the American dream. I still believe that but once you get here we don't have the resources to give them aid like that. Most migrants come here for the American dream to work hard and earn their money. I think it should stay that way. https://calmatters.org/california-divide/2023/12/immigration-california-street-releases/
That's awful border patrol just dumped 42k migrants into San Diego so fuck border patrol but 42k migrants is too many.
In New York migrants are getting prepaid cards, some are turning down food prepared for them. Even NY liberals have said the migrants problem is getting unsustainable because of the sheer amount of people and finite amount of resources. Then you have the unfortunate case of the migrant shooter in Times Square.
NYC is not FUCKED but it has some real problems that need solutions. Just like California.
What it really boils down to imo is there is a real immigration problem but red states don't want to deal with it and litterally ship them out to us because they know we are sympathetic to them. What really needs to happen is we need to make to legal immigration process shorter. When people hear it'll take 20 years to get citizenship they're just like okay we will pay some human trafficker to get us there instead.

Democrats should be praising Trump for all his majestic glory.
He has all but guaranteed that Democratic leaders will control the Whitehouse until 2040 at least. One guy, LITERALLY ONE GUY did that - Trump

Asante said: Guys.. What's the actual situation?
New York is about the same as it ever was. Probably better than it was in the 80s crime wise, but everyone these days is too young to remember that.
The problems with New York are the same problems its always had. The people there... are not nice. And I'm being diplomatic here, because I know a few people from New York who are nice, but every experience I hear from people who went there talk about how poorly they were treated, and how rude people were, and so on. Again, I'm kinda being a bit diplomatic here. It's a divisive thing, some people love it, some people hate it.
New Yorkers don't have the same sense of politeness or friendliness as other places. I have to explain this in terms of other places in the US:
Like people from the midwest are famously, notoriously insanely friendly, genuinely friendly. I've never met people like that from anywhere else, they are the best people you'll meet, so fucking genuinely friendly that it's ridiculous, like they come from some kind of weird friendly utopia.
People from California on the other hand are polite, but this is really frequently mistaken for friendliness which is where Californians get the reputation for being superficial. But it's actually that Californians act really friendly just as a form of being polite, whether they actually like you or not. Whereas in the midwest, they really genuinely like you and are genuinely friendly. Californians are just being polite though, which always throws people off if you're not used to it, because the form of politeness they use is friendliness.
New Yorkers are neither polite nor friendly. If they don't like you, you will know flat out in the very first sentence they say to you, and again every time they interact with you. They consider it some kind of virtue, and don't understand other places where people are just being polite. That's a huge generalization, but if you go to New York, you'll get the idea.
Also New York is filthy but so are most big cities in the US.

New York is a hell of alot cleaner than I remember being when I was a kid which even then was much cleaner than in the 80s-early 90's crack wave then u had the gang wars and stuff in the later 90s lotta stabbings muggings and stuff neighbors u flat out couldn't go if u were white and stuff. But like you said people are too young to know how shitty everything really everywhere was even just back in the 90s. Then u talk to old timers from the 70s and your like holy fuck. Crime was bad especially gang stuff. Now stuff is alot better but there's still bad areas and stuff happens. People are still assholes but unlike California once u get actually friends with people they're better than fake friends.
Heres a video for prospective. Imagine the complaints from these yuppie fucks if it changed back to this over night. People now adays just find shit to exaggerate and bitch about when reality is things have prob never been but if your ask anyone from there they'll tell you something like "the governor is letting this state crumble apart" when it's all nice and stuff. It's actually hilarious.

Also the 80s was statically the most violent decade in American history as far as crimes go it was a combination of the emergence of violent gangs especially ms13, the invention of crack, popularization of pcp, no DNA evidence, no cc tv footage. It's unlikely America will ever be that violent again. It was like trying to solve murders in the 1930s, all fingerprinting and informants.

Man, New York fucking sucks.
Idk what yāall are talking about in this thread and Iām not taking the time to read that, but I just came here to say I fucking hate that place.
I went there for Bassnectar for NYE a few months back, and like literally the second I stepped off the plane I started having a panic attack. Idk wtf they got going on in the waves over there but it shouldnāt exist. I felt it, and no. Take it away. I hope the whole city gets glassed soon.
Anyways.
Good evening all.
