Unfortunately, I'm ride or die NYC at least for the next decade. Could be my demise. Oh well.
They're screwed for awhile, for sure. Stay out of cities. Woke libtard cesspools.
I’m trapped in a city too. They all have their ups and downs just stay humble and stack sats. SF has gone through many changes over the 21 years I’ve been here.
The majority of americans already left nyc
They probably want to do another "Commifornia".
Yeah, they will cook the Apple.
🤔
Mandibles then bitcoin standard
Place freaks me out. Insanity.
Ok but what if your wrong
Can I text you
Mandibles.
It won’t turn around. Non-Americans who have been in NYC for 5 years or less were mandani’s chief demographic.
They won’t relinquish their conquest once they’ve gained it.
It will require a reconquista.
Bit dramatic. This sounds like All the calls I have seen over the past decade that California is cooked which mostly seem to come from backwater poors who spend too much time online.
California continues to be a dominate force and continues to attract people with ability and intelligence.
Real change demands grit - staying, debating, building coalitions and not fleeing to finger point from afar. If Bitcoiners can HODL through crashes, why not HODL your City? Cowards run, legends reform
Lol
We’re gonna hold down the fort here because someone has to.
You do you bro 🤷🤣
Pretty much how manidables started. Lol
Reminds me of an old 1981 documentary
Only US Citizens can vote in the NYC Mayoral elections.
It will be the next SF.
DeBlasio seems like a good preview for what it would look like?
As someone who holds more interest in urbanism than perhaps the "modal" Nostrich, I'm very interested to see how this all turns out. The question for how to manage the Great American Cities in the 21st century is both a pressing and fascinating problem.
Free buses and State-run grocery stories seem like pretty bad ideas to me. Lack of fare enforcement pushes transit systems that much closer to "roving homeless shelters"... At least that's been the experience in Los Angeles, where they've kind of gone the opposite direction in installing more and better fare gates.
am i selfish for not wanting them to move here ? dont love purple
The real power is always in the hands of the people, as soon as you start believing that the government just has inherent power without the populace you have given up your power to others that will decide your fate. Running away only works until there is no place left to run to, what then?
I replied to the wrong person
Ha
Love that for them
#yestr
Protect the family
But it was definitely true all the other times. NYC keeps having shitty mayors and getting worse. Zohran Mamdani could be the first good one, we'll see
NYC is bound to get better under Zohran Mamdani. Maybe not because of him, but at least because of the voters that roundly rejected Cuomo this time.
Nothing ever happens during this timeline. Believing this is a psyop within a psyop.
All cities are cooked, they have all become college and hospital towns because human beings don’t need to muster near ports anymore.
dude got this 
Best of skill lads 🙏⚔️
The apple rots
“When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed”
I’m thankful for bitcoin and its properties
NYC has been a socialist city-state for at least a hundred years or more.
It’s hard to think of anything that hasn’t been regulated, manipulated or outright controlled by the city and its ever-sprawling bueracracy.
if you can afford to live in NYC
you can prob afford to leave

It’s a shame. They will get what they voted for. Citizens are feeling the broken money problems but turning to the wrong solutions.
A harbinger of America as a whole. We’re over run
🤣🤣🤣
Crazy times...
You can’t afford not to move
Born here, grew up here… you haven’t been living here for 25 years so maybe talk about things that you can evaluate. 👊🏼
This is why cryptography and bitcoin are so powerful, even people who are oppressed by their governments can use anonymous communications and bitcoin to build communities completely out of reach for any governments. That is the power I am talking about. There is no government who could stop it, but it requires people to educate themselves and be technically capable of doing all these things without creating weak points that the government can exploit. Only a select few will be able to do it if we don’t try to spread the knowledge
Can someone explain why for someone not from US
Bitcoin adoption WILL increase under this guy no doubt
possible scenario with increased probability now. NYC becomes a haven for illegals, esp muslim, and criminals flocking to feast on the buffet of benefits and crime. more lawlessness, open air drug markets, defecating on the streets, repeat offenders released with no consequence. watch some videos online of San Fran homeless for a preview. clear to me that Soros and the globalists want to destroy the west and arent shy about it...
You can’t afford NOT to move away from there. Do it now while you still have something in your pockets.
Many people are drawn to new york when they’re young because new york city never stops changing.
They eventually leave for the same reason.

oligarch bitcoiners are cooked
they should distribute n airdrop
Enjoy the cope and denial
Cost of living: 131% above national average (2025).
Median rent up 16.3% (2019-2024).
103,000+ in shelters nightly (Aug 2025).
Unsheltered homeless: 4,504 (Jan 2025, +364 YoY).
Felony crimes up 32% per capita (2019-2023).
Overdose deaths up 110.9% (2019-2023).
Quality of life satisfaction: 30% (2024).
Unemployment: 5.2% (2024, from 4% in 2019).
Poverty higher in 2023 than 2019.
I’d like to see some New Yorkers post their current quality of life to compare a couple years down the road. Affordability (rent + everyday expenses and what those expenses are), daily traffic, feeling of safety, etc. that his plans will impact.
1. Everyone in NYC is above average that’s why we don’t want to live in the middle of nothing like you Kendy.
2. Only you can’t afford the rent here cuz your a loser.
3. You probably live with homeless in your cardboard box or around your block worse yet with homeless snakes 🐍 cuz you are in the middle of a swamp most likely running a single relay
4. Yeah there’s criminals here don’t come yerrr
5. Overdose is a problem in all of US probably worse where you are per capita
6, 7 again get good and get a better quality of life I’m sorry for you and your whole generation for not being able to do anything impactful to claim a place in a first tier city
Don’t worry your daddy Odell will notice you one day keep echoing him
any idea why someone may want to destroy the west
to achieve what in the end
the west is destroyed, what next ?
Thanks for demonstrating the deflection, cope, and denial about your Liberal dump of a city
whats next would be an absolute dystopia of digital control. if i had totalitarian aims i would want to destroy any remaining vestiges of freedom, democracy and Christianity. it seems like an all out spiritual war with evil intent. how else do you explain what we are seeing in Europe? digital ids, cbdcs, net zero, replacement migration, arresting people for social posts, war with Russua. does it seem like a pro human agenda ? are they telling you to be fruitful and multiply or the opposite ?
I’ll never meet anyone who cares about your city as much as this man cares about another man’s city. How about you actually make your city better instead of crying about someone else’s. Absolute definition of a keyboard loser
Great advice ™
