On stormfront you’ll read in massive subs such as r/soccer that Paris has a pocket of safety surrounded by pure crime. They’ll say shit like, “I went to Vienna and Budapest and not once did I feel unsafe”
You ‘felt’ unsafe? Are you just shitting your pants everytime you encounter an Arab or someone with slightly more melanin content? Like, almost every city I’ve ever been to where people say it’s unsafe is just a place with more minorities and I’ve never once felt unsafe.

When I was in Vienna a few years back, I wandered every direction and suburb all day for a week without any worry or bad feelings. Maybe I was just lucky, but I'm also not sure what's the issue with just being in a 'different economic strata'. Quite a few European cities have visibly run-down areas, but I was never anywhere that felt unsafe.
Well, we had chatted with some locals at dinner who were very "oh no be careful" when we told them where we were staying, so we were definitely primed to view our surroundings with suspicion.
