Lizzo Says Whole Country Will Look Like Detroit if Harris Wins

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

This is not the flex she thought it was. Detroit is a complete hole in the ground. If I were the Harris people I’d be scrubbing this from the Internet.

Actually it's not anymore. Detroit has been doing a renovation.

Yeah but the renovation still has a long, long way to go.

Not a wise choice of words on Lizzo’s part

Then cite a source that isn't your book.

What book?

In Kamala's defense .. it would align with the equitable outcome endeavors she continues to discuss.

They may have a ways to go, but Detriot is way better off than a whole lot of rural shitholes that Republicans don't want to talk about. I see them every time I get on the highway in my state. And if Lizzo is from Detriot, she has the righ tto be proud of her home. You don't do this, but it gets real tired when people try acting like a comment from Trump about something is the absolute truth.

 

[braalian]

I guess they’re trying to appeal to the people of Detroit directly. It is the biggest city in the state.

At this point, both sides should be focused on rallying their bases to turn out the vote.

You can put a facade on a city, but the high crimes it experiences and its ranking as the second-least safe city (behind Memphis) aren't going to be fixed with a facade.

Yeah, whatever. Detroit is rebuilding and good for them.

That would be a big no from me dog.

Detroit is crumbling with a ton of abandoned buildings.

Anyone posting an actual picture of themselves as their avatar make sure its never been used anywhere else, like facebook, because people like this poster will be able to reverse image search your photo and find out who you are. Make it a picture you took yourself on your phone and it’s never posted anywhere else.

Detroit is crumbling with a ton of abandoned buildings.

59K of them.

Detroit is crumbling with a ton of abandoned buildings.

Yeah so?

Kind of like dozens and dozens of other Rustbelt cities that got left behind when the economy shifted back in the 70s?

There’s cities like this in both red and blue states across the Midwest. Indiana and Ohio (red states) got their fair share.

They’re all working hard to make a comeback, to varying degrees

When I tried to explain to people overseas years ago that I lived in Michigan they often had puzzled looks. When I said, "fairly near Detroit", their response was uniformly shock and a little disgust. This was late 80s, when I was a teen.

Moved to this area in 1995. It was a hole. Detroit, I mean. A major network's ad line was "Stand up and tell 'em you're from Detroit". I mocked the heck out of that at the time. Detroit was a disaster.

But others are right, and I have no reason to lie about this. It's amazing the comeback it's making. Our son is in his late 20s and he has friends who live there. The Midtown area/sports complex area is thriving. Not just for entertainment, but people moving back in. Detroiters really are a gritty crew (just like our Lions).

The reputation will last a long time, sadly, but it is coming back.

If I have a book that's pubished, the sources are accurate. I've seen more than you and your parents have seen. All you're doing at this point in your life is repeating what mommy and daddy have told you..

59K of them.

Including the car factory. It might of been torn down already. But rows and rows of crumbling houses and empty lots.

Basically this says Detroit is still high poverty. Which is true.
