What a stupid post. Each one of those European cities has areas that look just as bad, if not worse, than the cherry picked images of their American counterparts.
America fucking sucks right now, but not because the worst parts of our cities don't look like the best parts of European cities. This is some low effort bullshit.
Woah. Calm down satan.
I agree with you, but i just wanted to say that.
This is especially dum because New York and New Orleans are both cities with intresting culture and nuanced history.
I havent ever heard about New Prague so cant say anything.
There are like 20 cities in states that start with "New" and op chose very poorly.
New Prague is a small town in Minnesota with less than 10k people and has only been around for 150 years, and OP is comparing it with a city of almost a million and a half that has been around for over 700 years. It's like watching Lebron James dunk on some middle school kid at the park and then mocking the kid for sucking at basketball.
So without shadows of a doubt New Praque is not as good as Praque.
Correct. Just like Orlovรก is without a doubt worse than San Diego, because it's an apples to oranges comparison.
And Orlovรก is not named after San Diego.
Then why you didn't ask if the kid in my previous comment was also named Labron?
Pictures of wealthy tourist areas are better than wide angle pictures of roads?
Shiiiit
Don't you know? NY and NOLA are when random street.
Absolutely avoid traveling to the US if you don't have to, but New York and New Orleans aren't total dumps as portrayed by these cherry picked images. I'll also point out that residents of both those cities overwhelmingly oppose Trump and vote heavily Democratic. And New Prague? Never heard of it!
As a Minnesotan that knows New Prague I had a good laugh at a small midwestern town being thrown into this comparison.
New Prague isn't a bad place, but admittedly not a whole lot of touristy things to do there.
The inclusion of "New Prague", a place no one has heard of, really highlights OP's need to pit the US against something.
It's shit in the US and there's no guarantee you will enter or leave safely. That should be the end of it.
New Prague is a small town of about 9,000 people in Minnesota. Iโve never been to New York or New Orleans but I love Minnesota and would welcome and encourage anybody whoโs interested to visit.
I always planned to go there, given I lived in the OG Prague to see how much the Czech community in the US differs from us.
Well, hopefully in a few years or so.
If you ever make it stop off in Saint Paul and check out the C.S.P.S. Hall too!
Holy shit, Sokol in the US, now that's a surprise! Thanks, definitely will check it out if the US ever returns to normal.
As a New Yorker, we won't hold it against you if you hold off on visiting, you do what is best for you.
There's a "new" Prague?
Zero
This is decidedly against the rules:
Rule 2: This community is for discussing European products/services and news related to that.
IDK why mods aren't removing these?
you're annoying..who made you the sheriff here?
Obviously I'm not, the mods are, so why are you asking this question?
But did you notice OP actually agreed and changed the headline to reflect the purpose better?
Which dramatically changed the value of the post!
no, I only noticed you beeing annyoing all over threads..could you stop?
You are attacking the person not the message, and from your history I can see you have a tendency to be quite unpleasant.
I was pointing out an issue, and wasn't attacking anyone, why are you feeling so annoyed and responding so aggressively?
Which dramatically changed the value of the post!
Not that convinced, to be honest, but you do you
Well you were convinced enough to change it. And now it reflects what you answered was the purpose to me way way better.
Isn't travelling to Europe supporting European services, especially tourism?
But that is in no way what this is inviting to. Maybe if your post had contained something like that?
But there is also this part of Rule 2:
Do not use this community to promote Nationalism/Euronationalism.
Who would plan a holiday to USA right now? If they are looking here to boycott USA!!
A thread about nice European holiday trips would be different, what you did is not what you claim.
Just updated the title to make the intent more clear
OK, that makes a huge difference. ๐
Cheers ๐
There is at least one New London as well, off the top of my head. And a New Braunfels (though I'm not sure there's an old one; I imagine there is, though).
These are laughably bad. No culture, no style in any way. Kinda pathetic.
Im not particulaly pro USA at the moment, but sayng New York city and New Orleans dont have culture or style is just stupid. Both cities have pretty intresting history, own architectural style, cultural significance and own culinary styles.
New Prague is just random town amd only one on that should be on this list.
