Blaming entire communities for NYC’s problems ignores the real drivers.
The unaffordability, crime spikes, and infrastructure decay are consequences of decades of concentrated wealth, real estate speculation, and policy choices, not some inherent stupidity of residents.
Also, New york city didn’t collapse because Irish or Italian immigrants existed; it collapsed when housing markets and policy favored the wealthy few over everyone else.
Last, Communists or social programs don’t “trap” people in poverty. Failing to provide basic support in an environment where rents triple and wages stagnate does.
The real causes are structural and policy-driven, not the people living there.Right now, you’re acting more like a mouthpiece for the wealthy who turned New York into this mess than anyone else, siding with the very elites you claim to oppose lol
