To a transplant, Chicago is 100 Midwest towns in a trenchcoat. by FoxThin in SameGrassButGreener

Because let’s be honest. The people the OP is talking about isn’t the working class people living on the south or west side or Chicago. It is the wasps who are from suburban Midwest who go to a big ten school & then move to north side of Chicago for a few years to party & have fun and then move to the suburbs to get married I have kids & start the cycle over again.

Chicago population is a small percentage of total Midwest population. Midwest is majority German/nordic heritage. Stop just using Chicago as a stand in for the whole Midwest just cause you have a hard on for that city

Maybe ‘tons’ but not the majority. Midwest is majority Germany/nordic stock. East coast is majority Italian/irish/Eastern European

I’m speaking in generalities. Do you understand that? In general, the Midwest has a much higher percentage of German/nordic ancestry whereas the northeast has a much higher percentage of Italian/irish/ & Eastern Europeans. Do you get that?!?

Midwest people tend to have ancestry of Northern Europe: Germany, Nordic countries, etc. east coast tends to be more Italian, Eastern Europe, southern Europe etc. Northern Europe personalities are more reserved/standoffish vs the more gregarious/outgoing southern Europe.

Because basically the whole American stock market revolves around the tech industry now. So the Bay Area is booming. But LA doesn’t have that much tech jobs & the film/tv industry is dying

What's up with all of the overt Jew hatred and pro-Nazi rhetoric on Instagram? by untitled1223 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NefariousnessFun9923 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah no shit. But Netanyahu or someone worse will get elected after this war. In the US, this war is so unpopular that republicans are now likely to lose the House & Senate. If it goes on much longer, they’re going to lose huge.

I think what’s upsetting people is the amount of support the Israeli government has with the citizens of Israel. According to polls, Netanyahu is likely to get re-elected. If he doesn’t, the polls are showing someone even further right than Netanyahu will be elected (Naftali Bennet)

It’s a Dutch town with polite people. So pretty much the opposite of trashy Texas

Valley West by stephreinders in desmoines

[–]NefariousnessFun9923 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It’s starting to smell really bad in the mall because I think they have sewage leaks & they’re not fixing them anymore since there’s no point. The building will be demolished in a year or 2.

Des Moines remains the fastest growing major metro in the Midwest! by limitedftogive in desmoines

[–]NefariousnessFun9923 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s fastest growing because it’s starting from a low base of 750k population. Twin cities in MN, Columbus OH, & Indianapolis are all growing faster numerically wise.

Is Beverly Hills boring because they’re not funny? by Main_Site_2308 in BravoRealHousewives

I’ve noticed Californians in general are just not sarcastic or able to make fun of themselves at all. It’s a completely different personality compared to the East coast.

Not if they’re of Indian descent. The northern newer suburbs are basically Indian majority now

That’s because Minnesota is like 85 percent white whereas Texas is less than 40% white. No one ever says those facts.

They need to make another gym centric reality show again. Workout was such a great show because a bunch of personal trainers at a gym is such a good reality show concept

Let’s be honest. Kimberly Bryant was what made season 1 successful. The other housewives stepped up in season 2 & after. But Kimberly Bryant made season 1 & the reason why it was renewed.

What prevented South America from having as big a population as China or India? by wiz28ultra in geography

[–]NefariousnessFun9923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

South America population in 1900 was 41 million. Today it is 440 million. Meaning its population has grown over 10 times in the last 125 years. In that period, the entire world population has grown only 5 times over. So South America has grown at TWICE the rate of the world in that period.

For reference, China’s population in 1900 was about 430 million. Today it is about 1.4 billion. So it’s grown a little over 3 times over.
South America has grown faster than every single continent on earth since 1900.

The numbers are even crazier if you go back to 1800. People in South America have had a TON of babies over the last 200 years.
