Can't believe Shreveport isn't on there, seems like we have shootings and killings every day.

Six pages in and no one shitting on Saint Louis...
There are many reasons to live in Santa Fe vs ABQ but can't say I have ever had an issue in ABQ, airport is easy to access, and craft beer all over.

The ATL should be top 10.

wonder how that came about
quote:my point is, what makes you think Africa’s trajectory would be significantly different if Europe hadn’t raided their natural resources
What’s your point?
its not like they had taken advantage of those resources in the previous centuries, relative to what Europe accomplished without them

Who’s to say they wouldn’t have? Or that they needed to? Does every country need to generate some kind of resource for the rest of the world? Are you a globalist?
If your argument is that, say, Belgium was justified in committing genocide and putting an entire population into slavery in the Congo just so the world could have more rubber, then this conversation isn’t going anywhere. We have different moral compasses.

The list is really just more AI slop
OP probably got it from one of those Facebook “news” sites hence the no link to where they got their data or how the ranking is determined
But hey, it confirms his biases and the feelings of many here, so who has time for those pesky facts?

i’d much rather each country be left alone to develop at its own pace, and not have their populations invade other nations to exploit them and thrir resources (or have their populations swarm to nations with superior infrastructure to take advantage of their altruism)
sadly, human nature isnt like that

likewise, if your argument is that all peoples possess equal abilities for societal organization and technological advancement, and that because Belgium put the entire Congo population into slavery a couple of centuries ago that the Congolese (and pretty much every other non-European in the world) now deserve the right to the wealth and property of modern Belgians as compensation, effectively destroying Belgian society, then you’re absolutely correct, we do have different moral compasses

Brother all I ever said was that Africa has been raided for its resources for most of modern history, implying that plays a role into these cities being as dangerous as they are today. Poverty is a breeding ground for crime

If that’s too far back, there are several examples within our lifetime we can discuss. Depending on your age.

Port Morseby is dangerous? Never would have guessed. I only knew of the City because I’m a WWII nerd.
