Shut up, hipsters.
Is just something I like to say. But this piece should give you some good ammo next time some boho bozo starts blathering on about sustainable urbanism, or whatever they’re calling it this week:
In fact, lack of ethnic diversity may have much to do with what allows these places to be “progressive”. It’s easy to have Scandinavian policies if you have Scandinavian demographics. Minneapolis-St. Paul, of course, is notable in its Scandinavian heritage; Seattle and Portland received much of their initial migrants from the northern tier of America, which has always been heavily Germanic and Scandinavian.
Or, as Mr. D. once sang:
Keith was the sole inhabitant
Keith was the sole inhabitant
Keith woke beside the fountain
From his dreams of china mountains
Far from the clatter of these autobanks
That keep chucking up money!
It turned into the kind of joke
That Keith feels isn’t funny
Don’t ask impertinent questions like that jackass Adept Lu.
