SteveCfade-im not trying to say that berkeley was a shithole or anything, i loved the atmosphere of the city but some parts of the bay area are just really run down (elcerrito for example idk if anything has changed since I was there)
still loved the city, but maybe my perspective was skewed due to going from toronto suburbs to an smaller apartment for a while (+ i lived for a while in albany ca which was still pretty nice tbh) not trying to shit talk cali at all
buffalo's a nice place if u stay between main and richmond which gives u like a 4 block strip where ur actually safe tbh
but in stark contrast i always felt safe in toronto and china was just different and really cool and i loved it
so what you're saying is: "I only feel safe around chinks and chink bubbles." Literally every urban city is like that lmao
fade- it's not all sweatshops and sex slaves like you have this image of
Fu Zhou/Fujian is full of sex workers, it's pretty common for girls from poor rural areas of China to move into more populated areas to become sex workers while they have their looks.
fade-america's literally the biggest shithole ever compared to both toronto and china
To generalize the US based off limited experiences in 2 cities while playing videogames in your apartment is pretty asinine. I guess living in ur high-rise condo in China paid for by your parents money that they made in America is hella nice. Families from lower classes literally have green card marriages to live in the US and work a low-wage 80 hour job at some chinese restaurant.
Back when I lived there during summers the river water was green af, trash was the scent that filled the air, and everyone smokes. Saying America is a shithole and China isn't is just a delusion by your yellow tinted glasses.
On topic: China is pretty swell, don't take shit from anyone, always haggle.
i dont get how ur self worth is so low that u have to shit talk china to get whitebois on the forum to like u it's literally like a black person screaming about how they hate their own race

yea chink bubble ur right boy ok whatever u say ignoring the fact that i go to a school that's like 2% asian and live in a community that's like im pretty sure 90% white? i said that there's literally four blocks of good place in buffalo because past that is the shitty part of town leading to the statistics above. if i need to explain this to you then i don't even know where to start https://a.pomf.cat/hnybip.jpg is main street idk why you'd ever want to get close to there, half the city is basically abandoned and once you cross into east ferry it just feels odd (and not just bc the shitty broken northeast roads are unever as fuck)
my dad found me an internship / research volunteer position with one of his friends last summer so i stayed in sf for a summer and i didn't feel a chink bubble (lmao wtf is that term) at all and i felt fine, even in mission / castro even if seeing ass naked people walk down the street freaked me out a bit. ur literally missing the point in that places that are statiscally unsafe feel unsafe. i didn't want to put down living in sf as one of the cities i stayed in since i only lived there for like two months but i don't think having asians around me really mattered in terms of comfort. i preferred having some ethnic life to have the foods i grew up with and not feel alienated but it really didn't matter that much. i did really love sf though
i mean if u have this image of me playing video games in an apartment idk where u got that from because i neither live in an apartment nor play video games anymore so w.e, i also didn't live in a highrise condo when i stayed in fujian, my grandpa lives in one but i stayed elsewhere in sort of a old apartment with my grandma bc they separated
i mean im blessed by the fact that my entire family has been well off but it's needless for me to say that they've only been able to get here with shit tons of hard work, if u decide to turn a blind eye to the reason WHY u see so many rich chinaboys out it's bc they (or their parents) work hard.
i get that ur sort of overweight but the first step to being happy with urself is accept urself as who you are and try to improve on that instead of being imbued with a sense of self loathing. are you physically upset when you encounter "chink bubbles?" when you go to family gatherings, do you feel uncomfortable? like i'm legit unable to comprehend how you wouldn't feel comfortable around people that speak the same language as you, have had the same experiences and culture as you, etc
