Do you have cities/regions in your country that are stereotyped as where losers end up?
>>
yes
i am living in it
>>
>>221405715
Newfoundland, and to a somewhat lesser extent all of the other Atlantic provinces. The economic situation out there has always been grim, and most young people with any ambition, including myself, move to other parts of Canada for work. I am originally from Newfoundland and there is definitely a stereotype that the province is full of losers on welfare, or living off EI fraud, etc. It isn't 100% true but stereotypes don't come out of nowhere either.

Can someone explain these chinese city tiers to me? Is it some informal thing just to say you live in a big/small city? Or does it actually mean anything?
>>
>>221406002
I’m referring to a place that actively attracts losers, not somewhere that has no prospects and the locals all failed to launch. For example here we have Florida or Tennessee
>>
>>221406044
The general idea is that the higher the number, the less developed the city is. Tier 1 is the big ones like Shanghai, HK, Beijing, and so on.
>>
>>221406044
It’s informal even in China, it’s just a way to categorize cities by size and economic relevance. A Tier 3 city here in the South would be Chattanooga or Charleston.
>>
Rural Midwest sucks pretty hard
>>
>>221405715
No I'd rather live in the countryside and earn half what a parisian makes but have a hundred times better quality of life.
>>
>>221405715
>Do you have cities/regions in your country
Yes
>that are stereotyped as where losers end up?
Not really. There are losers everywhere here.
I feel like any White Brit who willingly moves to Slough is genuinely a loser though. But its such a rare exception.
Milton Keynes is also quite a shit place to live as well. I don't know why anyone would want to live there.
>>
>>221405715
I would say Toluca and Pachuca, me lo confirman /mex/?
>>
You wouldnt move to Cleveland unless something went terribly wrong in your life
>>
>>221408433
why?
>>
" Fresno "

Ironic reply because past a certain age if you are still worried about shit like city tiers you’re mentally still a child.
>>
>>221406044
It's an asian thing because that is how asian countries invest in their cities, because they are all soulless bugs that accept orders from the central command center in the Tier 1 A prime city capitol palace. It's a lot like Russians' relationship to Moscow. It doesn't work well in the west or America. Best example would be comparing a dump like Oakland (officially a Tier 2 or 1 city because of the Port) to San Jose (officially tier 4 or 5) even though the latter is much better to live in and has way better homes. Also, because Americans separated our political seats of power from our other cities, the capitol of the 6th largest economy is only a Tier 3 city at best, outclassed by Stockton again because of the latter's Port.

I don't think so. Losers just stay in the countryside or as invisible neets in cities.
>>
>>221405715
All i can think of is guys who tradiemaxx and end up in the mining outposts. Some times they end up staying and import a thai wife. They’re technically successfull but you can imagine the stereotypes surrounding them
>>
>>221408903
We watched a documenatry on Kiruna mine it's very advanced
>>
>>221406044
It’s not relevant to the West because we’re 95 IQ baboons who don’t produce shit. Tier 1 cities are where shit is made and high tier industrial activity booms like Shenzhen or Xiamen.
>>
>>221409023
NCC is building an iron foundry right above it currently. They’re going to process ore on site going forward. They already have issues getting people to move there, its probably going to be 50% Lithuanian in a decade
>>
>>221405715
Most cities (except for a few) with around 25k-100k inhabitants, too big to be a comfy village/small city, not big enough to be a proper city
>>
>>221409141
>Tier 1 cities are where shit is made and high tier industrial activity booms like Shenzhen or Xiamen.
oh, so Detriot, Pontiac and Flint are Tier 1 Cities? fucking lol
now go tell me how Santa Clara is a Tier 1 City because of Intel and Nvidia, when the whole place is a residential suburb dependent on two Safeways

here is your Tier 1 City Train Station
>>
Hamilton maybe, Dartmouth, N.S. or East Hastings, Vancouver. A lot in Edmonton too and Winnipeg.
>>
Here's your Tier 1 City Train Station!! Abandoned for 30+ years because Detroit is a shithole. But the cars drive themselves now. A third of those skyscrapers are also abandoned.
>>
>>221409310
>oh, so Detriot, Pontiac and Flint are Tier 1 Cities? fucking lol
Detroit used to be a tier 1 city before GM collapsed, pretty much. You retarded?
>>
East Midlands. No local economy thanks to the death of domestic coal and steel production. There's no culture - every town here is a commuter town for cities outside of the region
>>
>>221405715
Losers don't end up somewhere but remain in the shithole small town they went to school in
>>
>>221405715
In my experience at last around 10th grade people have moved on from this "my dad is stronger than your dad" kind of thing that is popular in middle school and people started to go their own way, develop their personalities and hobbies, etc. so being the "cool guy/girl" did not really matter at this point. I find it strange that at least based on online impression Americans never really developed past middle school in this aspect and people spend so much time trying to status signal online even though even for me like 5k kms away it is very obvious that these people online are mostly losers, they would be seen much better if they did not get in the ring in the first place
>>
>>221409416
Detroit hasn't been Tier 1 since the auto industry collapsed, you braindead retard.
>>
All places outside the few biggest cities are for inbred alcoholic failures.
>>
>>221410079
This. Losers typically don't leave their hometowns. At best, they move one town over to a cheaper but shittier town.
>>
>>221405715
If he's a loser he wouldn't have any hope or reason to move
and if a loser did move he'd probably try to move to a nicer city. no one actively moves to shitty dead cities because everyone knows those cities are shit including losers
>>
>>221405715
LA and San Francisco, it's like 90% schizophrenics who think they're going to be celebrities and then 9% actual schizophrenic celebrities
>>
Tier 1 means a globalist shithole filled with 3rd world migrants that hate whites, crime, drugs and unaffordable housing.
>>
>>221410770
If you're not in tech or finance living in San Francisco is retarded.
Same with LA unless you're a celeb.
>>
>>221410808
>If you're not in finance or tech in San Francisco you're retarded
Well you see the problem with half the population of San Francisco and LA is....

>Tier 1 City Train Station
At least your city has an actual station. New York's Penn Station was turned into a shopping mall by (((Irving Mitchell Felt))) and (((Charles Luckman))).

I shan't be using some arbitrary communist chinese naming convention in regards to western cities
>>
>>221406044
A business magazine created the tier system. It's not an official thing. Think of it as mix of evaluating population, industry, infrastructure and culture and classifying them as tiers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_city_tier_system
>>
>>221410877
As opposed to like the crackheads shitting on the bus seats like what normally happens in the New York Subway system
>>
>>221405715
Literally the entire eastern third of my country, reason being the biggest concentration of gypsies
>>
>>221406203
High development is soulless and gay. Who would want to live in a tier 1 Chinese city?
>>
>>221405715
Yeah, Warsaw. But all the winners end up there too.
>>
>>221410079
Yes but since the others move a better city you get the pattern that the worse cities have a higher concentration of losers
>>
>>221411088
Truked those gay freaks
>>
>>221409869
>>221410251
That's my point. This whole "tier" thing is completely arbitrary. I'm in America's Tier 1 city, Santa Clara. It is a quiet residential suburb that also houses the world's most advanced chip fab. We make less than Oakland, Richmond or Antioch who are all more important. The tier list is totally useless as a metric.

Your memes are over a decade out of date. Ford rehabbed the train depot into a massive office complex and GM just built the highest skyscraper in the state on Woodward Avenue.
>>
>>221410970
The cops don't do shit. I don't know what happened when the actual station existed but they do nothing now
>>
>>221411774
but does the train stop there
>>
>>221405715
Most places except Oslo, Akershus and Rogaland are net drains on our economy. Cities like Bergen, Trondheim and Tromsø are making heroic efforts, but their surrounding areas are just simply too unproductive and full of retarded welfare recipients and olds.
>>
>>221411584
Your dynamic only works in societies where people want to function alongside less people, not more
Everything about American culture is about hating having neighbors and wanting to live in luxury and make a living with the least amount of people around possible
I can't imagine that level of misanthropy, it sounds miserable
>>
>>221405715
yes marseille, lyon, lille, toulouse, bordeaux, nice etc...
