Sending all the manufacturing overseas and commodifying it means there's little reason to buy anything from a physical retail store. Everything is made in the same Chinese factories, so you might as well buy the cheapest version. The retail stores that are worth going to sell stuff that is somewhat unique.

I'd also like to add that it's a tragedy that Americans let their malls die.

Growing up in the 90s, I used to watch with awe at what you guys had when I saw it in your imported TV shows and movies.

You guys really had the best country in the world. Still do, I guess, but it's nowhere near as wondrous as it used to be to us Euros

Not everyone has so much money to spend all their time in there. In my town they started renovating the main street in the old town center, and simultaneously they built a second mall on the outskirts. The renovation took a while, and another mall popped up, with cinemas and shit. Once the renovations were done everybody got used to buying stuff in the malls, and the businesses in the old town had trouble. But the magic of the mall only lasts for so long, and we don't actually need 4 malls in our small town, so now all the malls are doing poorly, and people have started to go to the old town more again.
Fuck malls, they're fake. A small shop where you're friends with the owner has SOVL

Not a singular reason, but a few, Matt Walsh from America's most wanted made people understand they were not safe there, the increase in robberies around christmas and other holidays expanded to just normal operating hours, gangs of urban "youth" hanging around in the malls not buying anything and stealing, the final nail in the coffin was online shopping, why does a mall need to exist if Amazon and ebay deliver the same product, not to mention Walmart and other major retailers expanded their in store inventories to carry a lot of things niche shops in mall did. Spencers and Hot Topic and KB toys just couldn't carry the mall, Sears and other anchor stores held on longer but they suffered from the same conditions.

When I lived in Indonesia it was the same. Jakarta will have some average mall the locals are like "yeah, let's go to the shitty mall" and I as a Brit walk around it like "holy hell this is bigger than most British towns"

Food is expensive.
Food sucks.
The stuff is expensive.
It sucks.

Same reason as everything else I guess. They wanted to squeeze more money out of people while providing less. People eventually decided it wasn’t worth it.

Go to the mall and try to find something worth buying. It’s a fun experiment. Everything is plastic junk that is also $200.
Go buy a shitty Philly Cheesesteak that was microwaved and also costs $20.

I went to the movies the other day on a date, and it was like $80 for two tickets and a large popcorn.
The movie kinda sucked.

Everything feels like a fucking scam now. No wonder nobody wants to do anything. I genuinely have so much money saved because I don’t know how to spend it. I used to buy Chipotle all the time, but now the food sucks + it’s expensive.

I went to the casino the other day. I had to pay $20 for parking. Then a beer was $10. I was $30 in the hole before I even sat at the Blackjack Table. Like what gives? I thought the whole point of a casino was to fill you up with cheap food and drinks so you waste more money gambling?

Don’t even get me started on fucking Vegas. The whole draw of Vegas was cheap flights and cheap hotels. You could stay in a nice hotel for cheap, and the hotel would still make its money back from your gambling.

Like fuck man, it’s like everywhere forget that the customer actually has to have a good time so they come back. Now everywhere just wants to scam you. They don’t care if you come back because they’re hoping they can scam the guy after you too.

Like where tf do you even spend money anymore? On what? Why? It’s all terrible. I bought an espresso machine because coffee shops suck and are expensive now. I bought an ice cream maker for the same thing. All my retail purchases are just ways to keep myself from making more retail purchases.
>Go to coffee shops
>It sucks
>Buy espresso machine so I never have to go back
This has basically been my buying habits for the last 5 years.

Evidently not.

Everyone is answering OP like mindless souless zoomers and boomers. They are answering, so fucking Hylicly BTW, I mean, look at it, “brown niggers and my IQ” great answer zoombers.

Why? Why? Why? Why indeed?
Malls are one of the biggest blind spots in the general informational knowledge database, as well as the discussed occult knowledge database. In multifact, malls are a key into the secret world and hidden secrets of many different subjects and groups and times and timelines.

To begin by answering OP, why? And obviously were only talking about the US and not any fucking other place even if it aligns with the US,cuz who fucking cares about any other place but the US, fuck that other place,
>Because, they ran their course and served their purpose.
>Because the standard stranger/ other person/ societal member became a less honest and trustworthy person
>because our society does not value anything that a person does not be forced into “paying” for with “money”, which is then choked down to the bare minimums so people don’t pay to gather together and then mob up and slaughter troublemakers by any name.
Because there was a secret psyop from 2008-2012 and since that persuaded the public that malls were bad/ uncool/ gay/ for losers.

Because malls were a major fathoming point, like beer halls in Germany in the 1930’s, they drained out the money, sold them off to insane dreamers with wealth, and used their infiltrated government meme Corperations to psychologically poison people against them, so they’d go away.

One day the deepsecret of Mall Egregores will be revealed.

all these areas got patrolled by a certain demography. that were looking to beat people up. now what? how to have a social life? you can only pay per social activity that is time sensitive. going to the cinema. films over? walk out. going to a sports club/gym? tired? time to go home. going to a bar, had a couple drinks? go home. going to the mall, beach, pool, these places you bought tickets to get in, or could get in for free, today its very expensive. if time's up you need to leave.

American only thing.
European malls are usually in the city center where people go to buy random shit so mall is a nice addition.
In USA land mall is in nofuckingwhere you need to drive to and a mall itself is not a justifiable reason for a place to be visited
>>
>>541667347
In America, you are required to use a vehicle at every point if you want to get around. The cost for going to the mall is that you have to have: a car, car insurance, car registration, and gas. It is more of a task to go to the mall than it is to simply just buy your stuff off Amazon. When I was in Spain and went to El Corte Ingles, asll I had to do was get on a bus with the bus pass that I paid $25 euro a month for UNLIMITED public transit and I would be there at the mall in 20 minuets give or take if the bus happened to run late usually it was always on time. It really is simple when you think about it, the cost of getting to a mall in America is simply a lot more than it costs in countries that have a widely established and integrated public transit system.
When going anywhere in America, you have to get in car, make sure it has gas since if you don't you have to pay $35 to full up your car, then waste all your time in shitty traffic wasting 30 minuets then having to find parking. In a majority of Europe, all you have to do is leave your place and catch a bus or something like that, none of the asinine shit you have to do in America
This is coming from someone who lived in the largest city in America without public transit, no buses or anything like that; Arlington, Texas
We blame the automotive and oil industry for this so that they can profit off of this
People do not realize the cost that it takes to exist in America, goo luck walking or biking anywhere. Europeans have no idea how good they actually have it
tl;dr cost of going anywhere in America is too expensive and time consuming

>>541667347
>Why did malls die?
Something about interest rates and the way construction was funded and who was holding the debt over time. I remember reading a huge writeup about it years ago that seemed plausible and explained a lot but I don't have a link anymore. The gist of it is malls as we know them in the 80s through the early 2000s was the result of a confluence of economic, ethnic and land developmental factors. They were attractive longer term investment vehicles when they started getting built but for a whole host of reasons the margins got thinner and thinner over time and around the same time ethnic diversification was taking place and making public common areas more and more of a liability. Ultimately it stopped making economic sense to keep running the enterprise at all and selling it off for land value became the easy choice since there was no other reason to keep the lights on other than profit, which had long since dried up.

Everyone likes to point to nogs and online shopping exclusively but those are only small factors contributing to the non-viability of them. Afterall shopping via catalog predated malls by over a century. Several centuries depending on how loose you want to get with definitions. The ability to buy things and have them delivered to your house wasn't anything new and wasn't in competition with the mall model.

americans should have defended the malls like they did streets, parks, playgrounds and ice cream shops but admittedly men in the 90s were already weak compared to the decades prior so the mall was surrendered to the negro like all the other cool hangouts and then the shartphone and internet took away the will to go outside. good thing its never too late to tuirn everytrhing around but there will be blood and plenty of it

>How?
How? Black people showed up in large groups, chain stores and banks and big business cascaded disaster into themselves
Jews likely jewed along the way

But Why?
Why? Because they had SOVL, because they were a place you could go and meet people. They were a cell phone, they were Facebook. It can’t be a crime to go anywhere when there is a big shopping mall to go to.

Humpty Dumpty didn’t fall, he was pushed.
