Look man the people that live here deal with the pot holes and other stuff everyday.

So no we dont give two shits about your "concerns" or "contributions" because you dont live here. In fact the whole "crusader from afar" thing is fricking weird.

Exactly....people live there, spend money there, attend events there, book hotels there, eat there then move away and spend their money other places and apologists say they don't care. Me not living there is a choice I made when I moved away and one I did so happily and have not regretted once. There has not been once visit to the city (as recently as last week) that my wife nor I have regretted our decision to move away.

Or the people who had their windows busted out at the game in broad daylight yesterday...the people this thread is about.

Peoples lack of acknowledgment of an issue doesnt mean it isn't an issue...it's just that they want you to believe what they do.

I am going to go out on a limb and guess the suspects are not the Caucasian type.

NOLA apologists have such an extreme issue with people not sharing their view and affinity for the city they try to diminish the opinion and stance for anyone who doesn't agree.

They'll tell you your opinion doesn't matter.
They'll blame it on COVID.
They'll say however much money you've spent there is irrelevant.
They'll say you're not a resident so your opinion doesn't count.
They'll threaten to Dox you on a message board.
They'll blame crimes on victims.

They do and say anything to discredit those who have a differing opinion on a city they love simply because people don't share the love.

Like saying "yeah, the city has crime and safety issues that I think are valid and understand why people would want to stay away" is so hard. Instead, they would rather pretend the issues aren't real or somehow a misunderstanding.

It’s more an issue with people like yourself who have posted 1k times how much you dislike and won’t come to NOLA.


No offfense, but we get it.

What am I insecure about?

So long as my criticisms are going to be tried to diminished I think that defending my take in the forum those opinions are shared is a normal and logical response.

Would it make me more secure to just state my take, let it be responded to, discredited, threatened to be doxed, have lies about my personal life shared on here and just not reply?

No more substance and reduced to gifs just trying to discredit a differing opinion. You'll say you don't care but come back post after post.

No one is discrediting you. But any rebuttal to your opinion is seen as denying the existence of any problem.

Open up the idea that you might, just might, have some flaws in your opinion.

Im very open to it...let's talk about it and / or debate it. Or don't.

But just posting memes and suggesting I am the one not open to a discussion or debate is silly. Point out the flaws without just saying "that's wrong" or "that really doesnt matter". What I am saying is echoed by people here, on social media, on travel forums, on TripAdvisor and Yelp.

I am not saying everyone does or should share my opinion only that it exists well beyond just me or my circle and is contributing to a reduction on travel and tourism to the city. No matter who or how many people says it here the reaction is always the same.

The city has issues.

You have issues.

People questioning some of your goofy claims does not equate to thinking all is perfect.
