    My post is quite (1/2) unpopular : maybe Thanksgiving was not the right day to rise this topic 🤨 ?
    Edit : Unfortunately on Lemmy we cannot sort by controversial. Sometimes this sorting rises peculiar and interesting questions.

      What topic are you referring to? This is a garbage post. Setting some kind of arbitrary limit on population and then just fucking hating on Chicago is useless. What has Chicago ever done to you? How is the population of the city relevant, bearing in mind that the borders of cities and urban areas vary wildly within the US, and many urban areas consist of multiple ‘cities’? How is Houston different from Chicago? Do you think you’re making a point? Cuz you’re not.

        Yes, the word “topic” was unnecessary.

        Setting some kind of arbitrary limit on population (…)

        Like in the header : “All cities which are worse than Chicago are at least three times smaller.” You are not familiar with the concept of outlier, are you ?

        (…) hating on Chicago is useless (…)

        I hate crime.I don’t hate Chicago. Are you projecting ? You seems to have a lot of anger.

          Yes. I’m a crime-riddled US city with an inferiority complex :P
