You said "almost exclusively by non new yorkers." Do you understand what that means?
From what you're saying, these people must all be lying when they listed their place as NYC/Manhattan/etc. That's an interesting way to go about it. In that case then, I declare all the threads made by people who listed anywhere but NYC as their location to be bunk, because I know for a fact that they all live in NYC. CHECKMATE! There now, is that the logic we're working on?

Oh, so I guess you didn't know what almost exclusively meant. That explains it.
I don't understand these East Coast bias accusations. Wouldn't it make complete sense that the most populous region in the US also have the largest number of posters on this forum? What is the bias in that aside from reality?
New York Metro population: 18,800,000
United States population: 304,059,724
The vast majority of the people here don't live in anywhere near New York City, so no, it WOULDN'T make complete sense.
Yeah I agree I just asked the Question to see why NYC is very popular in City vs. City. For example Rwarky I think he's from Cali and he created a thread called Greatest influence on the U.S.A., New York City or Los Angeles?, Another thread was more expensive boston or NYC ? by drose1, NYC or L.A? by tothehilt, this person is from Fl, L.A. vs NYC vs Chicago by crayola, this person is from Michigan, Philadelphia vs NYC by JLock 2513, and this person is from Houston TX.
Should I continue?
I just saw many threads of NYC that is why I brought it up...
In that case you should make a thread about why everyone talks about LA, because alot of the threads you just mentioned include LA. Not just New York, by non-new yorkers. Maybe LA is just as popular and desiarable as New York, especially by non-Angelinos.
NYC is the media capital of the US
NYC is the fashion capital of the US
NYC is the finance capital of the US
NYC is the marketing/advertising capital of the US
NYC is the art capital of the US
NYC is the food capital of the US
NYC is the cultural capital of the US
...etc.
and is #2 politically.
And in each of those things, NYC is either #1 or amongst the most influential around the world.
NYC (alpha ++), in absolute terms, is more influential than DC (beta +).
Culture is subjective. Like if you mean pop culture, I'll go with LA. But if you mean American history and all that, then I'll probably say DC or maybe Boston or maybe even Philly, but then they're is plenty of other history in the US from other countries, Spain, Mexico, France, if we're going by that history and culture then I'd say New Orleans, San Antonio, Saint Augustine.
Of course. But to the point where other regions of the country are constantly bashed, stereotyped and never given credit or respect is what I think polo was referring to. It happens all the time, but it seems to be most prevalent among those from the upper East Coast.
Exactly what I meant.
