sorry but after living in the most diverse and sprawling city in the u.s. i can only imagine moving to the very model of our nation's wealth inequality and militarized police at this point in my wasted life.
So those other cities suck because they are 'too white' and yet one of the most diverse cities on earth becomes 'hell on earth' lol
Anyway, it pretty much goes without saying but being in a position to shop amongst cities according to these criteria only comes with substantial privilege.

Not really, the first Australians chilled here for like 40,000 years barely changing at all until one day immigrants came and everything turned to shit.
i don't believe that's true at all, perhaps their material culture changed little, but their names, their stories, their family patterns... by aboriginal accounts these changed frequently and many changes have been forgotten in an oral culture. you are just applying a western technological bias of the nature of change anachronistically. change is obviously relative though, and the nature of change changed upon contact
part of the core of a culture is its pattern of change and exchange
So how did this change over those 40,000 years. They began it without the wheel or permanent agriculture or settlements and ended it the same. This isn't me trying to put them down, i'm not in that business, it doesn't make you a racist to acknowledge that they were just mad chillin' for eons down here you know.
can you give me an example of cultural authenticity? i don't understand this attitude.
I know right? 'Cultural Authenticity' is a ridiculous and parochial idea, which is why i travel around outback indigenous communities appropriating their artistic styles and themes, then reproduce it on an industrial scale in a Sydney factory to sell to rich American and Canadian tourists.
Some of them complained but it's like 'hellooooo? Get with the times grandpa' but they still take the hipster route and whine about their 'authenticity'
some people, honestly
new york has less crime than boston. wheres your cred now swagisters? yolo

calling bullshit. i watched all 10 seasons of stargate and no one raped anyone

are the benefits to diversity you can blame other people for crimes you commit, maintain a nice lawn for cheap and eat good ethnic food

no to everyone
unless youre moving into some wretched conservative berg populated 90% by people that will die within the decade, but we're not talking about that we're talking about cities

i don't feel safe around lots of white people just because they escape most of the penalties for all the laws they break/created. props to nyc for writing the book on cooking the books, fuck a UCR

have you considered moving to Shanghai or mabye Harare? significantly fewer whites there than in NYC, which, fyi, has the highest concentration of rich white worlddestroyers in the known universe

i'd say that's the positive asian influences keeping you krazy kaskadian krackers in check.

it's pretty funny the lengths of self-mythologizing that Portland goes to in boasting of it's 'vibrancy' and 'culture' when analyzing why they became such an It-City, never acknowledging that it's success rests purely on the fact that it's the whitest metro in the USA and as such provides an excellent avenue for professional post-collegiate to live in the suburban safeness they spent years deriding hidden amongst an 'urban' camouflage of bike lanes, dinky trolleys and awful, awful body piercings.

Well i'm also from a pacific rim city with tons of immigrant azns and i'll tell you what they fucking love walking around around at night, they've encouraged non binge-drinking nighttime pursuits and as for cultural exchanges, they gave us bubble tea and we gave them those stupid puffy jackets and baseball caps.
also they mind their own business which is a plus for me, i can't see us having to fight them on the beaches anytime soon like Some Other Groups. On the downside, rich expat chinese are driving up house prices to insane levels so we'll probably need a pogrom at some point.
Sari you are a fraud, almost as big a fraud as New York City

I stand by my offhand description. It IS funny, but more in the context of 'hey Doc when i wake up each morning my stomach feels kinda funny' which i know for a fact is your kind of humour

I don't mind immigration, i just don't like every second CPC-crony industrialist in China gobbling up all the properties here as an insurance policy against shit hitting the fan back home.
As for mixed girls? They're often pretty but you've got to be cautious about the moral values of a girl who comes from a family that evidentally cared little for the tradition or propriety of their community.
