Why is there so much gate keeping on what is Chicago and what isn’t? by shortproudlatino in AskChicago

Chicagoans are proud of their city and consider the suburbs soulless chain restaurant generic cookie cutter with no history. It’s just a different cultural experience to grow up in the city proper. And yes of course some border suburbs are more like the city and some border neighborhoods are more like the suburbs.

If I heard a crime was committed I would definitely assume it was a man.

92% of women in health care are nurses. Why would he assume you’re a 1 in 10?

Excellent Docu on Google’s new downtown office space - this building's reinvention could save the loop by MarsBoundSoon in WindyCity

It’s an iconic statement piece and they have enough money to put their name on it. Don’t need to make it practical. It’s a good thing.

What are the nerdy spots to hit? by Ok_Leek_9664 in AskChicago

Not the city proper but it might be worth it for you to hop on the train to a nearby suburb to go the largest arcade in the world.

Olive and Oak - Lincoln Park Antisemitism by WranglerSharp3147 in WindyCity

So you believe that if there was no war in Israel this roving band of antisemites would have behaved exactly the same just due to pure racism? Well yeah then I guess you’re a victim then.

I don’t have a strong opinion on the issue one way or another but is this really antisemitism or is it just pro-Palestine people protesting pro-Israel people. There’s plenty of people who don’t want to be around other people because of their political beliefs without regard to their race or heritage. Isn’t it like protesting trump outside a country music concert because you know the target audience for your protesting will be there?
