It was once the third largest city in America. Now look at it.
the trump effect
>>545317144A building under demolition ? Wow, scary.
>>545317144East St Louis has always been fucked. Worse than Detroit. The Greyhound station there literally has an announcement to not go outside

>>545317144The civil rights act and it's consequences has been a disaster for the human race.
De-industrialization, car centric urbanism, and niggers
Niggers destroy all cities.
>>545317144>was once the third largest city in AmericaFalse
NiggersDemocratsLack of interest in living in the cityChange of technology, less freight on the river and more on the highwayLack of safety after darkI live in the area, can't carry a gun in the zoo or baseball stadium anymore and you used to, not much to do anymore and I won't go out at night, anything north of Delmar is a no go zone, niggers chimp out every 5-10 years and destroy shit.Ferguson and Mike Brown spread them out to where I live in the suburbs now which sucks dick.Idk guys.
>>545317512>The Greyhound station there literally has an announcement to not go outsideKek, what are you supposed to do ? Stay in the bus ?
>>545317144I wish I could visit Saint Louis and Cleveland one day.
cars destroyed our cities.
anyone screeching about how this was all caused by niggers is wrong because this was happening in all white cities tooalso giving niggers cars makes them way more dangerous than they'd be on public transit
>>545317144Shelley v Kraemer
>>545317144Politicians in the 1800s didn’t want to build railroads across the Mississippi to protect the steam boat industry so Chicago became the railway hub of America instead. Also the Chicago sanitary canal was built meaning goods could now be shipped through the Great Lakes instead of the lower Mississippi. Chicago metaphorically and literally shat over St. Louis. Probably a lot of other factors as well. And niggers of course.
>>545318070Niggers don't have wheels anon
>>545317144it was once the great city of Cahokia, and now it lies in waste
>>545317512>The Greyhound station there literally has an announcement to not go outsideWhy is that tolerated?
>>545318070Ah yeas, i love wading through four feet of horse manure
>>545318024You get out of the bus and go into the station to wait for the next bus and that's where the announcement is>>545318263It just exists, like Haiti, like Africa, like Detroit. No amount of money can fix it.
>>545318149> this was happening in all white cities tooThere haven’t been all white major cities in 40 years anon. It’s literally niggers and spics causing this.
>>545317144>What the Hell Happened to St. Louis?It became a Nigger filled shit-hole. I read a lot of history about lots of stuff , mostly war and trains and manufacturing etc. And it funny that it always end the same way . ___ The great Cincinnati press a 1950's technical marvel , used all over the world --->>Yeah what happened to Cincinnati ?? Oh yeah it became a Nigger filled Shit-hole. Almost every book I read is like that -- -- And the Train passenger cars were made by the St. Louis Car and body ... Oh yeah it's a nigger filled shit hole now. >>>Hey what's stopping us from making the US a manufacturing powerhouse again .. ?? Well every place that we used to make stuff became a Nigger filled shit hole and all the skilled White people fled
>>545317512there is no Greyhound station stop in East St Louis dumb shiteating liar
>>545317144Any change than happening connected to niggers?
>>545318070You right they were using electromagnetic trains
>>545318263because segregation and capital punishment are so medieval and shit
>>545317144Jews and niggers.
>>545318483The fuck there isn't. I've been there. It was a long time ago so maybe it's not there anymore
>>545318336Well now we get to wade through nigger manure and needles, so which would you prefer?
>>545318149Have your people ever heard of a Parkhouse? The amount of space it safe would blow their minds
>>545317144St Louis is wild, I would imagine it's only gotten worse.>friend and I passing through to Ozarks, pre-Google Maps>we're downtown>"Let's get some ribs!">stray like 5 minutes off the path and we're in burnt out nigger hellWe're from Chicago too, this is one grimy ass city
>>545317144East St. Louis is Zimbabwe-tier. No one really goes in there. They feed them at the perimeter. I’m not sure the exits off I55 are still open. Most humans take I255, the long way around.

>>545317342vpnoff vpnigger>>545317144it used to be a major port city on the Mississippi. it's where the Mississippi and Missouri meet, but a bunch of niggers moved there and when they started building trainline the Stl. government pissed off the train people so they sent all the train lines though chicago instead so all of the jobs that would be in STL due to those trade routes got sent to Chicago (the now 3rd biggest city) and the Mississippi isn't as important as it used to be and it's not like you needed to change ships or unload cargo at STL anyway. both rivers were deep enough for barges. NYC and Chicago were big deals because you needed to transfer shit from the ships at NYC to either ocean liners to send them across the ocean or off of ocean liners to coastal or river boats to send them up and down the coast or up the erie canal. same thing with Chicago and the great lakes and their canal. Pittsburg had a similar issue, in theory, you don't need to unload shit when going from the ohio to the aliganey or whatever but Pittsburg instead used it's location to build up steel mills and was a hub for collecting steel and coal
>>545317144The Mississippi river is no longer used or needed for the transport of goods as nothing is made in america anymore. Not even boats capable of navigating the river.
>>545319187Fucking gross. Fuck the police because they keep me from curb stomping these things
>>545317512>>545317144>>545318441Holy shit youre right, what the fuck man
>>545317144St Louis has been held politically captive by a secret racist society of industrialists since forever, whose members are literally the empowered corporate elite, and whose neoliberal economic policies exacerbate racial inequality in magnitudes unseen in other US cities because of their ties with electeds and police, the deliberate racism employed. Even with the recent impoverishment of the city, Anheuser-Busch out, capital flowing out to Chicago, downtown being burnt down and/or demolished, the organization itself purportedly unmasked, their racism seeded over centuries is still demonstrated by the lumpen in this thread. It is truly the Capital most embodying of persistent American evil, even if it's not the capital powerhouse it was in the late 1800's.
>>545319485>just 10 yearsGoddamn. Probably doesn't help that ESL is on the Illinois side, and subject to its taxes. Can't even buy up this poisonous land for industry or a giant warehouse because it's just cheaper in Missouri
>>545318149This is what corporate assfucking does
>>545317144St Louis is a hollowed out, doughnut shaped metro.Nothing worthwhile in the center, but it takes two hours to travel from end to end
>>545318483Yes there is ya ignorant fuck.I rode GH a few years ago from shitucky to Wa state. I stopped there. You can see the arch a little bit. Had a convo with a nigger that reiterated that very sign.
>>545319782If you want a fun urban core, go to Kansas City
>>545318263There is a similar sign at Chicago O'Hare airport.
>>545317144It's niggers man, it's always the fucking niggers.
>>545319644but hey you can get a cheap starter home there lol
>>545320073Shit they will almost give you one for free, but good luck staying alive in those neighborhoods, even if you are a dirty nigger.
>>545319809you are the ignorant fuck spreading misinformation. You probably stopped at the St. Louis Amtrak station neat Scott Trade Center and are misremembering. There is no fucking reason for a Greyhound to stop 15 mins outside St Louis in East St Louis. And the fact that you're riding Greyhound shows how unaware of your class position you are to be believing its "scary infesting niggers" that are the cause of society's problems
>>545318893Ah yeah you went north. North city was worse back then, half of it is literally vacant now and the niggers all moved to Ferguson etc (hence the riots)
>>545317579This
>>545317144I dont see the issue. Thats what it looks like here? Not everything is some cottage village in the alps
>>545319187Honestly would be preferable to nigger hoards. But if Biden handed you a free voucher to live anywhere in the country there is no reason to choose StL over California Unfair. I would love to live in California
>>545319485Damn, even the trees have given up.
my grandma was born in St. Louis when it was still a desirable place to live. she left in the late 1930s. She returned in the 1980s and said a black man literally blocked her path trying to go down a sidewalk. he just wouldn't let her go by. She never went back again.
>>545320409You're such a stupid ignorant fuck. KYS you worthless commie queer.
>>545318149>All-white city>In the USName one.
>>545317144>by 1870 Irish immigrants had established a powerful foothold in the city wards and county administration building power through political patronage locking down massive building monopolies. The city's Anglo and German business owners united to cut off the city from the county in order to stop this embezzlement. Despite this the Irish managed to secure city contracts for construction and pay off both Republicans and democrats, running underground bootlegging and robbery as well. Infrastructure development in the 1890's required massive bribes to the Irish machines. By the early 20th century the city infrastructure was severely dilapidated, police and fire departments were heavily politicized. Control of infrastructure fell to a coalition of wealthy businessmen coinciding with massive amount of blacks arriving from the south culminating in race riots. >the Chicago defender printed highly politicized editorials urging blacks to leave the south during an economic glut and corporate recruiters journeyed to the south to find labor because of immigrant shortages from Europe during WWI, despite 5x as many arriving than we're needed, labor framed this as a conspiracy to "strike break" >streetcars, rail shipping and brewing were connected to the city's financial elite which were dismantled by the nationalization of industry during WWI, the criminalization of alcohol and the introduction of the automobile >massive macroeconomic shifts ultimately devastating the wealthy who began heavily investing in suburbanization >WWII saw a brief climax of the city which collapsed as suburban expansion accelerated after the war as people were forced to live in the city and use its infrastructure, when the bubble trapping people in the city burst it was a rave to the exit, the machines that were left cannibalized each other until nothing was left
>>545317457There's a lot of buildings that look like that, though. Just empty shells full of homeless drug addicts. You'd think they'd make the riverfront by the arch more presentable but no, it's pretty shitty.
>>545319644Yeah. I wish the state would designate East StL and other east side flood plain towns as a special economic zone where regulations were more in line with red states. A lot of those brownfield sites aren’t worth anything to anyone other than industry, but like you said the taxes in il make it untenable to set up shop compared to Georgia Texas or even Missouri across the river
>>545321561So, it was the Irishman all along...
>>545317144Amerimutts don't deserve America.
>>545317144>What the Hell HappenedNiggers.The answer is always Niggers.
>>545317956Had a nigger threaten to blow my head off on delmar in the middle of the day with people eating on patios all around. I just ignored him and he left me alone.
>>545321690It's a common theme in every major US city yes
>>545318827Is that the same thing as a parking garage? Because st louis has those. Bums like to use them to break into your cars.
>>545321059Downtown st louis isn't the same as east st louis, you retard. And people go out of there all the time since it's like 2 blocks from busch stadium.
>>545320073holy shit it's real<-- screenshotted just now
>>545317144It's not niggers, that's the lazy low IQ scapegoat. It's due to the deindustrialization of the west, where all the factory's were closed and manufacturing jobs were exported to the third world.
>>545322029>2 beds, 1 bathsAhahaha
>>545320073>$30k plus decades old tax lien, goyim :)>>545321655I was gonna say they do this for Cairo, but honestly they should just pack up the niggers there and move them to another nigger hive upstream. There's no use to keeping that floodplain ghost town alive.
>>545317144same vibe, except radioactive isotopes eventually decay while niggers reproduce
>>545318149Not just niggers - browns too. Though the ultimate cause, of course, is the jew.>it's carsThere are still plenty of mostly white cities in Europe (even still some in the UK, though obv they're working on that) which aren't shitholes and in which most adults drive, so, no.>trying to subtly deflect away from the nuclear-bomb-tier devastation caused by niggers into soulless architecture/development generallyThat's also the jew.>B-but look at my carefully chosen pic related! It's all centred around carsAmericans' love of the car at best only partly explains why image A turned into image B. Lots of economic factors and incentives at play. Plus, you know, maybe more people would be willing to use public transport if it weren't for fucking niggers.
>>545317144Planes happened. Now it is flyover country. No longer gateway to the west. Also Chicago dwarfs it.
>>545317144Republicans have run it the last 20+ years, right into the ground.
>>545322029$40 month, anyone anon could do it
>>545317144>What the Hell Happened to St. Louis?>It was once the third largest city in America. Now look at it.check'tJewsNiggersThe Jews brought in the Niggers
>>545318051The armpit and asshole of the US, why?
>>545317647>Niggers destroy all cities.nice flag dont see Mongolia here often.
>>545317144Detroit was the largest financial hub in the world a hundred years ago. People will blame cars, niggers, etc and to some extent that's true. But the ultimate cause is of course the kikes and their federal reserve.
>>545317512>>545319113East St Louis is in a different state.
>>545322324Yup East St. Louis once had the 2nd biggest slaughterhouse and meat packing plant in the country. It opened in the early 1900s and employed about 5000 people. Armour shut it down and moved operations elsewhere in the late 50s, around the same time all the other manufacturing jobs in the city left. The city immediately went to shit afterwards. All the Whites left and niggers were left to live in the ruins.
>>545317144Niggers. This is the future of all of America, since they just can't get enough of nigger ass in their face.
>>545320409Here's to hoping you get raped to death by a pack of feral niggers, you deserve it!
the N-bomb...niggerbombcannot rebuild or recover from it
>look it up on google maps >its literally just run down buildings with wide fields of nothing holy shit dude looks worse than some places here
>>545318263Diagnosing the problem requires racism, which only evil retards engage in
>>545321818>as wealth fled the city the county fractured into 90 independent municipalities >weaponozing tax laws suburban developers and politicians poached strip malls and car dealerships from neighboring towns, developers got massive subsidies and politicians campaign kickbacks while businesses didn't actually grow>smaller towns used predatory ticketing in order to secure municipal budgets to pay their salaries >mayors and council members frequently funnel trash collecting, resurfacing, tree trimming and building inspections to their immediate family members, business partners or campaign donors >municipal bloat costs taxpayers over 2.3 billion annually, 750 million on administrative overhead alone >st Louis county has over 50 separate police departments drawing 6 figure salaries to oversee forces of fewer than 10 officers>80 separate municipal courts which arr routinely awarded to political donors or law partners >funding these bloated payrolls requires some of the highest sales taxes in the nation driving away retail businesses Blah blah blah
>>545317144>big archisn't that the entrance to Aushwitz?
Euros and various non-Euro Whites have been getting squeezed between the Jew and the Non-white.you already know the big picture so I don't need to spell it out more than this>jews control business, finance, media>chinks indians and gooks buy up houses, rent out apts, driving up rent and home prices>niggers rape or entice away your potential wives>cucked liberal and shabbos goy whites go along with it, especially if they profit or simply love sportsball/rap/hiphop
>>545317144Build a wall around the state and return it to Mexico, simple as.
we go on the /pol/ to bitch and describe the problem without having clear path towards fixing them. so sad. vote harder ;)
>>545323465Take over your local republican organization and spell out to them clearly that if we don't make race our central issue then jews and brown people are going to destroy us.
>>545323384I think so
>>545318441it's all in china now bro, the elites sold the average worker out because they were pissed people made a decent wage, same shit with the chatbot craze now. These are the same rich faggots that want to send you or your kids to die for israel or taiwan.
>>545321982I never said it was you fucking retard nigger. I said there was a sign there telling people not to go outside you utter fuckin newfag bitch.
>>545323014>All the Whites left and niggers were left to live in the ruins.Why didn't the nigs abandon the place as well ?
>>545324325Are you fucking retarded? I wasn't even replying to that, you dumb fag.
>>545324597The whites are driven out by the presence of nons. If it weren't for nons these cities would look like your typical white euro city that has lost a lot of its manufacturing. The nature of things is that anywhere with services and stuff to do attracts people, and dark people drive out the whites.
>>545317144Centers of power reshuffled after nixon-china.
>>545317512>East St Louis has always been fucked.it was perfectly fine when it was a white city 100 years ago
>>545324325And even if they do have a greyhound stop, plenty of stops say don't get out because they're for dropping off and picking up only. Most stops tell you to stay on the fucking bus unless a layover is planned, which it never would be since the main stop in the city is going to be next.
>>545317144From that perspective that's probably East St. Louis. But St. Louis itself is rough too, especially the north side.And, and who do you think ruined St. Louis? Just think about it a little bit.>>545317342It was shit long before Trump took power, you retard.
>>545317647Perhaps this was the great khan purpose since the beginning
>>545325116You pathetic nigger lover, just kys for being a newfag, a nigger lover, AND a retard. Ya miserable moron.
>>545324597They did. Since so many blacks flooded into the city while it was emptying out there was a massive housing shortage. Since the suburbs were racially segregated they were targeted for "black seeding". When a black would move near or into a white suburb predatory real estate companies (not infrequently owned by jews) would call you in the middle of the night and make threaten you and your children, drive up and down your street in a beater revving its engine, throw bricks through your windows, dump trash in the street, hire blacks to walk up and down your sidewalk. Then leave cards in your mailbox telling you to sell your house for nothing. Often targeting elderly women. Then when they bought your house they doubled the original price and sold it to a black fleeing the city with extortionate pay plans meant to bankrupt them. Houses were flipped and repossessed multiple times in a single decade until the house was falling apart. Main street shuttered and the suburbs collapsed into ruin and were demolished, sort of mirroring the 2008 grift
>>545325488Whatever, you IP hopping queer. You're dumb for thinking "don't get off the bus" had anything to do with the state of the stop and not the status quo for most stops on the line.
>>545317144
>>545317144the answer to this and many more examples of blighted former glorious cities is niggers
>>545317512I went to a strip club there in a fancy rental car and the local nigs were telling me I shouldn't be there but idgaf YOLO
>>545322876>Paris of the westwell, that one still counts
>>545325531I found a great book in the thrift store about a jew kvetching about the demise of jewish boston because the jews did the same thing to themselves there. Jewish boston used to be a huge ethnic community which was practically at war with goy boston. But in the 60s blacks came and jewish real estate people did do their own people all the stuff you mentioned. And this jew covered it. Of course he was a liberal so it was all "ahhh it's so shameful that my jewish ancestors fled boston just to get away from blacks!!! I definitely would live in a black area if they didnt have such bad schools!!!" Practically every big east coast city used to have a giant jewish section but now they're all running away to avoid the blacks
>>545320409Well I actually did used to live near East st Louis, nigger, and one time I gave a ride home from work and he didn't even let me drop him off near his home because he wanted to make sure I was safe so he made me drop him off on the outskirts.
>>545319485E st Louis was fucked long before 2013.
>>545325735>the answer to this and many more examples of blighted former glorious cities is niggers
>>545326259Wow the jewish neighborhood completely emptied out in 3 years lol
>>545317144you been there lately? one of my favorite large Midwestern cities. absolutely mogs Chicago, Kansas City, Minneapolis, etc.
>>545325185Rare. Legit, VPN, or Bruce getting some brown island pussy?
>>545326340Don't you find it odd how 2008 was so much like blockbusting? They gave them the same kind of predatory loans as the blockbusters. Quite the pump and dump
>>545317144It turns out that sane, normal White people do not actually want to live in cities. People only moved to cities because that's where most of the jobs were, and you actually had to physically go to your place of employment to work there. Cars meant that you no longer had to live in some cramped apartment like a rat in a cage to be close enough to work to walk there. And now, people with WFH jobs can live pretty much anywhere, and can have a nice big house in a comfy small town and still have the kind of job that used to only be available in a large city.
>>545327219>brown island pussyKanak pussies are 1)hideous and 2)dangerous. You could get some actual French pussy there though.
>>545317144Take 3 guesses.No need for the other two.
>>545317836No, it's true. It was the third largest US city for a time in the 1800's.
>>545323465No, most of the remaining anons go to pol to call out evil elites and help other anons resist globohomo
>>545317144Everyone keeps going on about niggers this, niggers that. But if you’ve actually read books about these Rust Belt cities, you’d know that the American elites, composed mostly of white people, and specifically WASPs, in the mid-20th century allowed all of this to happen. Sure, black people might be incapable of improving a civilization, but if those in charge were so superior, why did they let this happen? Reagan is just one example among many
>>545317144Last time I was there I drove through down town and there were legit sections that looked completely third world
>>545317144They'll build a second arch and be owned by McDonalds soon.
>>545318070>>545318149Jews destroy our cities because they want us deracinated, losing our connection to Europe.
>>545323014The meat packing industry was owned by the mob. The RICO act and Robert Kennedy's attack on organized crime began in Saint Louis. It was pretty common back then to get a piece of 'tony' in your meat if it came out of East St. Louis. This was part of why the economy died in the 60s as much as the civil rights act. The mafia owned East St. Louis and when they left white flight came with it.
u guys should see what cincinnati looked like before i-75 ran through downtown
