Hot take, Europe actually sucks, Accessibility actually matters and some pretty buildings don't distract from the fact that a lot of major cities still have terrible traffic and urban policies. Plus there's the massive wave in righwing beliefs across the continent.
counter take, none of this is specific to europe (and europe isn't a mono culture)
revised hot take, the world actually sucks
I was complaining about how people treat Europe as a shining city on a hill and claim it has no problems and if it does, it got them from America
