New Zealand has a 'Shit town of the year' election and honestly it's a gamble each year because all the towns are shit.

We should just give Bavaria to the Austrians.

'Red' states. Texas, Florida, etc.

The sad part is they have a lot of really nice stuff in them. It's just that the people in them want me not to exist, or, if they concede my right to exist, want me to be an underclass citizen who anyone who isn't in my reference class can shit on.

It's hard to be in the metro areas of these states (Atlanta, Austin, Miami, etc) because they are being held hostage by the state government and are gerrymandered to hell.

Madrid. In my opinion, they see themselves as the coolest, the only who matter in Spain, while the rest of us are merely peasants... assuming we exist.

Texas or Florida

AraucanΓ­a (Chile πŸ‡¨πŸ‡±), does not matter your skin colour, language or religion, nobody is safe there.

Special mentions:

  • Talca, every single bad thing that happens in my country happens there first (COVID, floodings, forest fires, etc). It's a common joke among chileans that we should just "Blow-up Talca" or that "Talca doesn't exist".

  • EstaciΓ³n Central (Santiago), you take your bus or train as soon as possible and you get the hell out of there, because the odds of you getting robbed (or even worse, stabbed πŸ”ͺ) by staying too long are very far from 0. Do not ever go near that place at night time. πŸŒƒπŸš«

As cities go, I found New York to be worse on a few days visit. Smelled terrible, and if there was a window open, at any hour of the day or night I could hear sirens. Most of my memories of DC are the subway, which was decent, and marching through the streets / locking down buildings with the group I was with. What's awful about it in your experience?

the government lol. I was making a joke. I've never been there, I'm sure physically it's a nice place (dc, not ny).
