    Better advice for tourists: Avoid the USA.

    I actually don’t know why. Can someone fill me in?

      Theyre being racist. Lower Manhattan and Williamsburg are gentrified

        So what you’re telling me is that the good, cheap food that tourists crave are in the red labeled areas? Understood!

      Because they’re in New York.

    I love when maga-pilled tell people to avoid major parts of the country.

    Why?

    1. They’re sensitive snowflakes who get butthurt if they see a LGBTQIA person
    2. Nobody wants them there anyways.

      You could see a black person in Brooklyn!!

        How preposterous to see a black man running around free! My word, they should immediately be put to work and if they refuse hung! That’s how we did it in the olden days and we should bring those back! /s

      They’re the same type of suburbanites who think more than 3 black people in a half-mile radius constitutes gang activity

      They’re the type of people who claim the left are snowflakes but then blowup at something we probably all learned about around kindergarten age: the dreadrd pronouns.

    If you go to the Bronx a common morning greeting is YOU GOOD?! Say it loud and look them up and down a bunch. They’ll know youre from there

    You can they’re not from New York because they circled part of New Jersey.

    Otherwise I’d say it might be from a New Yorker telling people to stick to the tourist areas.

    • SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Really, everyone should stay away from all of New Jersey. Not because of anything racial, but because it’s New Jersey

    Last time I visited New York I stayed in New Jersey, in the red area, was a 20 minute bus ride from the port authority without traffic. Had Chinese food one night from the red area, is still the best American-Chinese food I ever had.

  • Duamerthrax@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Most of that isn’t NYC, but stay out anyway.

    source
  • Dookieman12@piefed.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Oh, I know why…

    There’s not much to see in the red areas. All the tourist spots everyone wants to visit while on vacation are outside them.

    • Agent641@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      As a tourist, I prefer to take the normal areas of a place I visit, not tourist attractions. Just regular streets, parks, shops, ect
