Doesn't hong kong have the fastest internet?
in what way are we talking about
>inb4 it falls over
looks cool
aesthetically, culturally, vibrancy wise. When you walk down a street in Hong Kong you just KNOW that youre in a bigger and more interesting city than NYC.
Do you mean jew york?
> NYC can compete with this.
Probably.
looks comfy
Yeah, not as many Jews or niggers so you have pretty good point.
All cities are shitholes no matter how good looking
All of us hate New York and New Yorkers. They are the only ones that believe that that they are anything special over here...so good luck finding a burger that confirms your ignorant assumptions....that isn't also a New Yorker that is.
You are so wrong, pseudo-Spaniard. Hong Kong is 7.4 million and New York is 8.5 million. And when you factor in the metro area as a whole, New York has 20 million.
Also, while I know it's not popular around here, a big city's cosmopolitan feel is determined in large part by its diversity, and New York is incomparably more diverse than Hong Kong. Granted, certainly doesn't make it somewhere I'd want to live, but if you're a fan of big cities, New York beats Hong Kong hands down.
Really, the only cities on earth that rival New York are London and Paris, with an honorable mention to L.A. and maybe Chicago.
HK is probably the best city in the world. NONE can compete.
>a big city's cosmopolitan feel is determined in large part by its diversity,
found the plebit fagot
tokyo is better than both and it doenst need to be filled with niggers to feel ((cosmopolitan)))
> Tokyo was ranked first in the "Best overall experience" category of TripAdvisor's World City Survey (the city also ranked first in the following categories: "helpfulness of locals", "nightlife", "shopping", "local public transportation" and "cleanliness of streets")

It looks all exciting and shiny, but it's grimy and smells like a sewer, but not just any old sewer; it smells like a sewer with filled with spicy garlic shits in it. Disgusting.
Also, New York is disgusting.
I spent a week in NYC and a couple of days in HK and I definitely enjoyed NYC more.
HK was full of Malaysian, Indonesian, and Filipina broads who moved in massive herds. The streets were perpetually dirty and people were damn near hostile to each other. Though I appreciated the work the British had done, it's quickly being undone by the influx of Chinese influence and money. Once 2047 hits, HK will be nothing more than another soulless city overrun by the god-awful mainland Chinese.
>burgers unironically think NYC can compete with this
No, most of us know our cities are nigger infested shitholes.
>New York has been my home for more than forty years, from the year after the city’s supposed nadir in 1975, when it nearly went bankrupt. I have seen all the periods of boom and bust since, almost all of them related to the “paper economy” of finance and real estate speculation that took over the city long before it did the rest of the nation. But I have never seen what is going on now: the systematic, wholesale transformation of New York into a reserve of the obscenely wealthy and the barely here—a place increasingly devoid of the idiosyncrasy, the complexity, the opportunity, and the roiling excitement that make a city great.
>As New York enters the third decade of the twenty-first century, it is in imminent danger of becoming something it has never been before: unremarkable. It is approaching a state where it is no longer a significant cultural entity but the world’s largest gated community, with a few cupcake shops here and there. For the first time in its history, New York is, well, boring.
>This is not some new phenomenon but a cancer that’s been metastasizing on the city for decades now. And what’s happening to New York now—what’s already happened to most of Manhattan, its core—is happening in every affluent American city. San Francisco is overrun by tech conjurers who are rapidly annihilating its remarkable diversity; they swarm in and out of the metropolis in specially chartered buses to work in Silicon Valley, using the city itself as a gigantic bed-and-breakfast. Boston, which used to be a city of a thousand nooks and crannies, back-alley restaurants and shops, dive bars and ice cream parlors hidden under its elevated, is now one long, monotonous wall of modern skyscraper. In Washington, an army of cranes has transformed the city in recent years, smoothing out all that was real and organic into a town of mausoleums for the Trump crowd to revel in.
>By trying to improve our cities, we have only succeeded in making them empty simulacra of what was. To bring this about we have signed on to political scams and mindless development schemes that are so exclusive they are more destructive than all they were supposed to improve. The urban crisis of affluence exemplifies our wider crisis: we now live in an America where we believe that we no longer have any ability to control the systems we live under.
spot on:

NYC beats hong kong not for it's fucking diversity you retard, but for the history as a place to visit and the number of attractions. The Metropolitan Museum of Art alone makes NYC a top ten tier city, and that's before the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, WTC memorial, and Central Park are taken into consideration. And there's a shit ton of mid tier attractions, too.
What does Hong Kong have? Millions of chinks and... that's about it. Call me back when they have a decent art museum. Ironically Taiwan has a far superior art museum, because the commies destroyed all their history and Chiang Kai Shek saved all his and hid it on Formosa.
NYC can't compete with anything.
NYC is the prime example of societal decay.
>Chiang Kai Shek saved all his and hid it on Formosa
The National Palace Museum is pretty dope. Mostly Qing Dynasty artifacts and whatnot with a handful of Ming thrown in, but definitely worth a visit.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: if I could go back in time and kill anyone, it would be Mao.
if America remained at least a 90% white nation they'd be the most advanced in the world in terms of infrastructure and so much more
It's almost as if... all cities are fucking garbage...
So let's go back in time and convince people to not keep shipping slaves over to the US
>if I could go back in time and kill anyone, it would be Mao.
How about the westerners who introduced communist ideology to China through gunboat diplomacy?
He's an idiot. If he wants NYC to be good again, build more apartments and get rid of rent control. Rebuild the subway and lock up the homeless in pens in New Jersey. BOOM fucking fixed. Nobody will miss the mentally ill prowling the streets and cheaper rent will encourage more creatives to move back in.
Curmudgeon talk.
Mao is a great choice, but my list goes:
1. Marx
2. Lenin
3. Mao
4. Woodrow Wilson
Much more cultural significance hails from NYC
(((cultural significance)))
Google fiber's faster. Only available in certain southern states though.
Ching Chong Wang Chung fooey
>a place increasingly devoid of the idiosyncrasy, the complexity, the opportunity, and the roiling excitement that make a city great.
Yes, I also miss when the spics and niggers burned the South Bronx to the ground, or when Williamsburg, Greenpoint, and Coney Island were no-go zones. Yeah, when New York City was a jungle and a kike with an illegal handgun was hailed as a hero. What. A. Great. City.
>WTC memorial
>tourist destinations
Pick one
Everything looks nice from a fucking helicopter.
new york is terrible which is why gf and I are moving when we get married. Don't want our kids to be forced to go to school with nigs(in japan for vacation)
