@noodlecat59 East europe.
-
@Razvan im from north america, when i think of eastern europe i am thinking of stuff from media , other than that i dont know much about it.
alot of cringey people in various online spaces moved to like, bulgaria and stuff. i honestly think USA might be the best country on the planet because in certain areas there are just mostly rich people
i remember ur posts about how much ireland sucks and how street gangsters threatened you in south america tho
i keep hearing and seeing pics showing how anti social nordic countries are too. my friend is from finland and he showed me a pic of people standing at a bus stop 5 feet apart. it's like the complete opposite of india where they cram 50000 people into one small train car
i considered mexico too but i just get a bad feeling about the place. i honestly think south east asia is probably the best place on the planet minus the giant spiders and cockroaches, and then australia if it weren't so masonic globohomo, but then again, if someone is affluent they are insulated from all that stuff and can live as they please
i think australia might be it. does herbie post here?
i think Canada might be up there too as the climate warms. England to some extent also but the landscape isn't as good (they dont have the types of mountains).
i also am considering france as one of the best places too because the food and services available there and the big difference between the mountain areas and the southern beach areas.

@Razvan are you in serbia? is the food quite good?

Honestly, Southern states, USA.
I went to Europe for 10 days, fell in love with Vienna, the People (youngest city in EU I believe), culture, etc. they definitely seem smarter and healthier than your avg American. Then I land back in the USA, travel sucks, etc.
Then I hit that Southern bound flight; something feels more alive than anywhere I'd been; the smiles and courtesies, small talk about nothing. IDK what the world thinks of southern race relations thanks to media (we're admittedly cultures apart even living in the same southern city), but a huge babyboomer cowboy helps a black lady with her luggage, and they make a good time of it with perfect pleasantry like old friends meeting again. Everyone feels happy being alive. As the plane descends, the reality of a 100 degree summer hits, but the degree of life and latent happiness overcorrects terrible weather and ugly urban sprawl. Everybody sincerely wants to embody Jesus - liberal or conservative, black or white.
Economic migration has pretty thoroughly distributed criminal neighborhoods to every major hub of the country, but you can get remarkably clean middle class areas with low crime in rural America still.
I would compare the Southern US to my internetted perceptions of Eastern Europe.
I would also say that, having gotten closer to northern British people (traditional/religious/old-fashioned), they bear the gentility and manners that descended to the Southerner. Having become friends with an Irishman after offending him about the troubles (lol), we became good friends and meeting other Irish thru the years, I'd say they have the joviality and down to earth character that descended to the rednecks and hillbilllies.
Swing on by for a visit before it all goes the way of globohomo!

@LetTheRedeemed xD what do you think about Texas? Is it ok in the winter?
-
@noodlecat59 glad you like my sales pitch xD
I'm in Texas. I'd say some college towns in the other southern states are more in line with what I'm talking about (I fell in love with Birmingham, and several places in Arkansas). These places seem to be where native Texans are retreating. Right now Texas is undergoing an exponential change and it's honestly pretty sad to watch. Many types of migrants everywhere - huge rural gentrification driving up taxes and running off poor rural "indigenous" (for lack of a better word). These immigrants of course, are not bad people, but they are pretty thoroughly international - nothing idiosyncratic or homespun about them - it's what you get in every new suburb and apartment complex in the world right now. But the migrants kinda catch on quick in the sense of being responsive to total strangers (a southern phenomenon it seems hah).

@LetTheRedeemed Winters are mild unless you’re in the panhandle in Texas. Nights get bitter in our old drafty farm house, but it’s perfect sized for wood fire heat from one stove, in a bad winter we might burn 2 chords.
We get sleet a few weeks out of the year or so.

Rural Mediterranean areas that are not affected by massive tourism and immigration.

@Razvan razvan. sorry for being rude before i edited my post and if you read it. please reply back and tell more about eastern europe. i'd like to hear more

The Dutch are very friendly and laid-back people and I always felt good when I was in the Netherlands. Same problems as everywhere else in the Western world, though. Slovenians are also really nice. Clean cities, too.
But I'm not really a traveller, so I can't contribute much.
-
@Luke I think "Same problems as everywhere else in the Western world..." is the real issue, and I've resigned to no more "retreating."

@insufferable where's Japan in there? Should be up there near the top, right?

@insufferable nice

@LetTheRedeemed said in region with the least bad people:

What does "no more reatreating" look like in everyday life?

@Luke not running away when they see a brown person in their neighborhood xD
