Dude I've been to Shanghai and from my pea brained American view it was the cleanest and most well designed city I've perhaps ever seen. You just compared tacky American bullshit made of parking lots and misery to a lovely walkable space with nice architecture. Like you can spit on the worship of consumerism on Huaihai road, yeah that's a problem, but it's at least an area built for human fucking beings to be able to exist outside.
So true, I remember when the country of Europe mandated every road be covered in advertisements
honest question - have you been to US cities? I'm sure you've got gripes about Euro cities but the sheer unwalkability of 95% of US cities is astonishing.
You wrote two paragraphs without remembering or double checking what you said? And you insult my reading comprehension? What the fuck lmao
