They are a tremendous waste of resources that will become increasingly untenable as our systems continue to break down. There are already many that are becoming low-income or which stand basically vacant as it becomes more and more difficult for people to commute and cities become hyper-gentrified.

I know, I'd be laughing my rear end off if everything wasn't so stupid and awful. There's really nothing that he'd be legitimately mad about with Biden, so he's had to completely invent an alternate-reality candidate to rage about. Biden sounds loving awesome if you take Trump at his word, I wouldn't have been nearly so frustrated with what happened to Bernie if that was who we got instead.

I, too, had the mental capacity to parse the intent from his syphilitic ramblings and be mad that the president is an incompetent idiot at the same time.

Don't appreciate being called a chud for it. Maybe it's you who should take a break?

Usually when everyone is talking about how the president is completely incomprehensible, I am pretty sure exactly what issue he's referring to and what he's trying to say. I totally get it would be incomprehensible to the average reporter or not extremely online, but as an extremely online I think his various shibboleths are not difficult to decode.

You just take what was in the news a few hours ago or happening live on fox now and work backwards.

I remember the last days of Ghadaffi being similar. He grew increasingly unhinged, and everyone (in media and on forums) was talking about how he wasn't making any sense and it was completely unparseable.

But I was parsing it as I read it. The biggest stumbling block for people was that he kept calling wikileaks 'kleenix.'

"No one should be allowed to live outside desireable city centers" is just about the the stupidest, most privileged hot take I have ever heard, and that is after reading Trump's word salad above. It's hard to legit disagree with it because it would be like arguing in good faith with a toddler who claims the sky is made of boogers.

yea its been a pretty common claim in this thread, along with 'i dont understand why anyone would live in the suburbs, when you add in the cost of car ownership the city is cheaper!'

my favorite take in this vein of all time though is we should be taxing homeowners who have empty bedrooms they aren't renting out to punish people for living in houses with more bedrooms than they physically sleep in.

My understanding of the 'abolish suburbs' crowd is that they want to eliminate the variety suburb that is essentially a parasitic bedroom community. The ones with no meaningful businesses outside of service industry and teaching jobs at the conveniently racially homogeneous schools that serve them. Ones with little to no public transport to and from that are centers of white flight and are simply drains on the tax bases of the cities they surround.

I've yet to see anything but the most half-baked pie in the sky ideas as to what "abolish the suburbs" even looks like, even when I asked the thread directly. Says a lot that this is a thing Trump shat out of his mouth hole but seems Actually Cool to people for some reason they can't quite define. Kind of makes sense in a thread well represented by people that say no, Trump's words make sense actually, you're just dumb.

You've here done a better job than any I've seen so far explaining this idea.
