Privatization is the core of fascism. We've watched 50 years of neoliberalism decimate the middle class. Musk and Thiel want to emulate Javier Milei of Argentina, to privatize everything! More of the same old that both parties have been enforcing. Musk quietly incorporated "The United States of America". Why? Article: Why Elon Musk's million-dollar presidential lottery is ominous By Sam Butler "Since taking office in December 2023, Argentine libertarian Javier Milei has done a speedrun of Yarvin’s and Thiel’s ideas, taking his country through economic shock therapy and privatization in his first year - including cutting pensions for workers, slashing public services (he campaigned with a chainsaw), and opening the country’s resources to foreign corporations. “Everything that can be in the hands of the private sector,” Milei told a local radio station, “will be in the hands of the private sector.” Earlier this year, Thiel visited Milei in Argentina, with the new president’s agenda underway. After the meeting, Thiel reportedly remarked “Milei’s ideas are as relevant globally as they are for Argentina.” Musk has championed Milei from the start. Just a month ago, he remarked “President [Milei] is doing an incredible job restoring Argentina to greatness!”-and, with eerie similarity to Thiel’s comments, said this to Milei: ”The example you are setting with Argentina will be a helpful model for the rest of the world.”

Late 19th century anti-Italian discrimination very much so explains why they never properly taught their children and grandchildren the language. They needed to assure Americans that they weren't a threat (foreign language and anarchism) all while still holding on to those non-threatening & less-threatening aspects of their heritage (food & Catholicism).

Everyone knows this but I thought I'd add, to save a tiny bit here and there, when you go to a cafe, take a few extra napkins and sugar packets for use at home. It adds up. Same for other kinds of condiments, whatever you use at home. Also, and this saves you way more but for some might be a bit much, walk around your neighborhood on the night before recycling day. People put out all sorts of items that are still in good shape but which they just don't want anymore, dishes, cookware, furniture, TVs, electronics, books, vacuums, etc. If you can get past the ick factor, it can save you a lot of money. I've done this myself a handful of times when times were tough--and even when not, because people throw out some really nice things! As for food, that's not complicated. Buy good, healthy food in bulk, and cook meals at home. Good deals on basics can still be found even in NYC, if you shop around, fruits, vegetables, pasta, bread, spices, cheese, etc. Just avoid high priced places like Whole Foods or Gristede's or anything that comes in small pre-packed packaging (which is also bad for the environment). If it's pre-cut, it's expensive.

Who you have as a language teacher makes ALL the difference. I took around 4 years of French in middle and high school and 1 year of Italian in college, and my Italian was probably better than my French. And the reason is that my French teachers were so-so (with one certifiably psychotic, don't ask), while my Italian teachers were incredible, both the professor and the 2 TAs. She even invited me over for dinner with her family for the holidays when I decided to stay on campus for part of them. Sweetest person I ever met, and a great teacher. When I traveled to Italy several years later, while it was very rudimentary, my Italian was good enough to get by. An aside, but one pet "peeve" about many Europeans who speak English, is that they misuse the word "since" when they mean "for". As in "I've been in the US since 5 years", which should be "I've been in the US for 5 years", as opposed to "I've been here since 2019". I guess that in many European languages that's how you say it, so it's hard for them to make the shift to the English way.

Being able to do this would be the only reason I'd get a car... I live in the center of Mexico City and I absolutely fucking hate it here, but I had no other choice back then. Now I'm looking for parks and places to go within the city, but it's so complicated to get there without a car, not to mention a place to stay the night in.

I rode the Tour of Staten Island around 10 years ago with a friend, and it took us through the Fresh Kills landfill park. The smells had mostly been contained by then but the park felt sterile and manufactured, like mall landscaping, and there were all these little copper-colored rivulets of water seeping out from all the huge mounds of covered landfill that were obviously leeching metallic chemicals. Perhaps I exaggerate but it didn't seem like the type of place you'd want to spend too much time at, for health reasons. But some parts of the island are quite nice, especially along the shore. Living in northeast Queens though it's too far of a ride for me to be likely to ride there very often, even if I took the train and then ferry, and actually riding out there would take me through some not very nice streets. That's one of the minuses of cycling in NYC, that you really have to get some distance outside the city to find some good rides, which to me has always meant quiet rolling country roads through farmland, forest and along the shores of rivers and lakes. Even nice bike trails or Central Park get boring after a while.

When I first came across these berries years ago I also thought that they were blackberries, but they're actually mulberries and a totally different species. Mulberry trees are what silkworms feed on and attach their cocoons tom, so they actually have two uses in addition to being ornamental, producing silk and being a tasty mid-ride snack! They can be found all over NYC and its parks and streets. You can always tell by the mess that the fallen berries leave on the ground or sidewalk.

A couple of other tips. Make eye contact with pedestrians and drivers. Use your hands and voice to alert ones who don't appear to see you or care. Be LOUD and RUDE if necessary. It's your (and possibly their) life that's in potential danger. Look at the road ahead of you for potential problems like potholes, bumps and debris. Avoid painted parts of the road and metal, especially when it's wet, as they can be very slippery. Also be on the lookout for other potential dangers, like pedestrians on their phones and oblivious to everything around them, or a group of people hogging the entire width of a lane. And make sure that your bike has decent brakes in good condition. Ok, that's more than a couple!

Queens isn't just the most diverse borough in NYC. It's the most diverse county in the USA. There's isn't an ethnicity, religion or culture that isn't represented in it, so it's fitting that one if the original UN buildings was in Queens, just to the right of the Unisphere globe that you passed by in Flushing Meadows Park which is now the Queens Museum (whose highlight is a miniature 3D model of the entire 5 boroughs). The other major original UN building was in Nassau country just across the Queens border, in Lake Success. That spot where you had lunch was right across the street from the Creedmoor Psychiatric Hospital, where the famous folk singer Woody Guthrie passed away. And the Vanderbilt Motor Parkway, which was the first elevated highway in the US, built in 1909, actually extended from the East River all the way to eastern Long Island, and other sections of it still remain, but it's no longer contiguous, although there's been talk of patching these sections back together someday to create a contiguous paved shared use trail. A part of the short section that you rode has been repaved since you rode it, though. I grew up in Queens, and didn't really like it as a child, but as an adult I've come to appreciate it and all that it has to offer. Not all of it is interesting or pretty, but there are some real standouts, like its many parks, some of which still have stands of original growth forest including Alley Pond and nearby Cunningham Park, Fort Totten, the promenade along the East River, Jamaica Bay, Floyd Bennett Field, the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, and most of all its neighborhoods, people and food. You actually passed within a couple of blocks of where I live and also where I grew up, and the hospital where my sister was born, and rode along paths, trails and roads that I must have ridden hundreds of times, and may have passed me while I was out running or riding my bike. And, it's funny that you asked how the food you ate compares to the food in Chinatown, meaning the one in lower Manhattan, because you actually were in the Flushing Chinatown, which is now much bigger and more diverse than the Manhattan one and one of the biggest ones in the world. Also, you missed the beautiful lake in Kissena Park! If you ever ride through Queens again, I highly suggest riding up to and around Fort Totten in the extreme northeast corner of the borough, and on the bike path along Little Neck Bay and Long Island Sound. Then follow local roads west to Powell's Cove and McNeil Parks, then south to Flushing, west again along the Flushing Bay promenade, then onto Astoria where you can take the Triboro Bridge to Ward and Randalls Islands and then back to Manhattan, where you can ride south on the East River promenade. Really nice video and glad I came upon your channel. Nothing like an outsider's perspective to see your hometown in a new light and perspective!

A friend and I rode the Tour de Bronx several times some years ago. Having grown up and spent much of my life in NYC, but not the Bronx, I'd always thought of it as the ugly borough, from the relatively little time I spent in the south Bronx, mostly driving across one of its hideous bumper to bumper traffic highways (thanks, Robert Moses!). But this tour really opened my eyes to its beauty and variety, places like Orchard Beach, Riverdale and City Island. One time I rode my bike the entire way from my home in northeast Queens to the start of the tour, rode the long version of it, 40 miles, then rode back home, around 70 miles total. One of the best rides I'd ever gone on, at least in an urban area. I went back because of this, by car, to see other places like Wave Hill and the botanical gardens. Who knew!

It's so obvious that you're European, aside from your accent, because you're well-educated, in the fullest sense of the term and not just in some specific field, thoughtful, considerate and engaged (as in with the world around you). Most Americans, even formally educated ones, are not like this. They could have a masters degree but know almost nothing outside their field, or be curious about it and think that it might be a good thing to know about things outside one's field. It's the culture. Of course not all Americans and Europeans are like this, but one tends to come across relatively few Americans who are like you. We have a very practical culture here, in that if there's no practical use for something then it's seen as not being worth the time to learn about and discuss. Then again, to us Americans, sometimes Europeans can come across as too serious and intense, and judgemental of others. Different cultures, different traditions, different ways of viewing the world.

Also, we were told the same thing growing up, no swimming after eating, you'll get cramps and sick and maybe even drown. Perhaps there's some element of truth there but mostly it seems like what's known as a a "wife's tale", like how if you don't wear a sweater when it's cold you'll get sick.

I’m watching a 2018 documentary called the lost village and it’s showing how expensive it is there. So since I haven’t gone to NYC since 2001, I would really want to visit. But most of my friends that used to live there have moved away, so I would need to get a hotel. I used to stay at the YMCA bc it was cheap. I even thought of just roughing it and just not really sleeping and just travel with a small bag. If they have a 24 fitness, I have a membership that’s good at all their location and I can shower and change clothes. Hey. I was homeless once for 3-1/2 years and of I could survive that, I should be able to survive for a week. Anyway, it’s just a thought now but I don’t wanna pay like $200. a noght at a hotel like I have done in 2001.
