Muslims are fucking loud, rude, invasive, and everything about them is obnoxious.

Antisemitism occured due to various reasons throughout history. In the middle ages it was due to religious reasons. In the 19th century, it was due to the prevalence of jews in the banking system. In the early 20th century it was due to the prevalence of jews among communist parties, and especially among the bolsheviks.

Today's antisemitism is mostly due to the "Barbra Spectre" types who push for immigration to white countries while simultaneously supporting the idea of a jewish state, and due to the big influence of the various zionist lobbies in western countries.

I'm not gonna call you a kike, I'm gonna call you a good goy.

To believe that jews "dindu nuffin" and were scapegoated throughout history for no reason whatsoever is as ridiculous as claiming that a secret cabal of jews run the world from the top of mount Zion.

I'm not very well versed in medieval history, but the role of jews in 20th century communist movements is well documented. Were you aware that there was a communist revolution in Germany in 1918? There even was a short lived Bavarian soviet republic.

If you look at the leaders of this revolution, you will see that the majority (more than half) of them were jews. Hitler didn't waltz into power by chance ; the german people (and most intellectuals at the time, including Churchill) recognized the threat of communist jews. (I'm not saying that most jews were communist. I'm saying that most communists were jews)

All in all, I'm not going to try to convince you anymore. If you want to keep being a good goy then please continue doing so. If your curiosity was piqued by some of the things I just said to you I encourage you to browse /pol/ with an open mind for a little while.

What makes Berlin different from other cities likes London, Paris or Rome is that the city itself is not beautiful or can show off with interesting architecture. It solely depends on it's local citizens and to be honest, original Berliners are pretty funny people. Atmosphere is the big thing but since the the early 90s Berlin has been overrun by yokels from small southern german towns who wanted to move to a big city. Later on more and more foreign tourists discovered Berlin as a cheap and fun place and lots of them decided to stay. Naturally prices for everything went up and the locals couldn't afford their places in the "cool" areas anymore and were forced to move away. Today you are left with areas swarming with hipsters and bored trustfund kids and the only chance to meet some of the people who made that place so unique and interesting in the first place is, when you try to explain your taxi driver where your hostel is.

Yeah. It was cool, but eh, kind of overshadowed by other central European cities - Prague, Vienna and Budapest are tough competition.

And museums around the country are being shut down to keep that free entry in London, it's a fucking leach, it needs to be destroyed along with the lib dem voting, humus eating cunts who live there.

>I'd say Paris

Have you ever been to Paris?
Boulevard de Strasbourg is like fucking South Africa.

Your opinion is obviously influenced by some retarded bohemian romanticism that doesn't hold up in reality.

Paris is like any bigger city in europe, with the difference that it has a giant steel penis in the middle.
I'd even say Budapest is nicer.

And when it comes to literature:
What about St. Petersburg?
Shitton of world renowned literature came from there. Not such a huge amount of international literature, but seriously this is a cultural thing in Paris. It was like hipster-city post WW2 and that is pretty much what made up most of that romanticism mentioned above.

Budapest is a fine /lit/ city and cheap, filled with exceptional beauties, nice vibe, and a good artlife

I really wish I could live in one of these cities. I've visited a few mentioned and if I could move to Warsaw, Budapest or Berlin tomorrow, I absolutely would, I'd probably go to one of the others I haven't seen like Paris or St. Petersburg too, but I'm stuck in Manchester which is absolutely shit.

i've worked in Warsaw (and several of the other cities mentioned in this thread)
most of the city was razed to the ground in WW2.
all around the city are grim grey tower blocks from the communist era
the city centre was rebuilt from scratch in the postwar era so it looks like the old city but it's basically a facade

meanwhile if you think manchester is shit you're doing it wrong

There are a bunch of reading series that go on in Toronto like the Harbourfront, talks at the TRL and other ones nearby archived on TVO, and no doubt countless stuff that unis have I'm ignorant of but I'm too much of a shut-in to actually try and be a part of it and go to some of these events.
I don't know about other cities to compare but it's nice here.

[Anonymous No.5606690]

What's up with all the negative comments about cities that have other than white people in them? I would think that that makes them more interesting, and as such, more /lit. Perhaps I'm feeding trolls, but curious.

LOL
Maybe 80 years ago. Have you ever even been to New York? Nothing good comes out of it anymore. The best you get is some blase piece of shit from disaffected and boring "writers" like Tao Lin.

New York is, culturally, dead.

I'm inclined to say London or Paris. I'd certainly imagine getting more inspiration from London as a setting though.

I'm with you on Paris. London should be up there too.

Currently living and writing in Turin. It's a beautiful city but there doesn't seem to be much of an writing community from what I've experienced so far.

paris is a big city, friend. of course there are less than pleasant areas, but that's always been the case. i'm perfectly happy with people being turned off from it. there're enough tourists here to begin with. paris will always be an important literary city though, that will never change.
