    Just another reminder of how those in China view this story:



    If the, you know, actual Chinese, take no offense, and instead are responding with an "outpouring of support", then I'm not sure what business it is of the American Perpetually Outraged Community (ie. "APOC"). Or do Chinese views not matter?

    I honestly think our resident self-loathing middle-aged white man would nod in enthusiastic support of this chart.

    The gentrification thing is driving me a little batty. I mean, that's any city's goal, right? Rehab old areas, reduce crime, have residents with stable and high-paying jobs who are committed to their communities.

    Poor white people can't catch a break. Deck's really stacked against them these days.

    I don't think that ever was. I'm guessing that's post Larry David after Seinfeld lost its fastball.

    Why would you assume it is meant that way? Looks like your worldview to me, in flow chart form. You should be applauding. Someone else finally gets it.

    Eh, agree to disagree. This was in 1994 though, sixth season. Fairly early and David was still there.
