Urban elitism towards rural population is a cancer IMO

[Pikacel]

Major problem in third world countries where city dwellers and petty bourgeoisie exonerate themselves as ‘civilised’ vs the rural savages. The countryside then gets neglected and exploited by an extractive urban centre.

As a result since the govt doesn’t serve the rural population, they take up arms to defend themselves and alienate themselves from the state. Lack of education leads to poor national consciousness exacerbating the issue.

This is worse in Africa, you always see people bragging about skyscrapers in the capital city and building blocks as ‘development’ while the vast majority of population are malnourished subsistence farmers. Ethiopia and Sudan might as well change their names to Addis Ababa and Khartoum.

No wonder the West surpassed Eastern despots, they established actual countries instead of just bloated consumer cities

You don't think that this is a problem in 1st world countries as well? Look at the urban vs rural vote in the US. Midwestern farmers are continuously ass-fucked. In the state I live in, California, we push policies that give no thought towards the rural populace and actively harm the poorest people in the state. Environmental protections fuck over entire counties whose industry is built on lumber for example.

This is a rising problem as the West becomes decadent and corrupted by myopic bourgeoisie, they turn their back on the rural workers and industrialists responsible for building the nation in the first place.

Development can only come from the city so I think their elitism is justified. The peasant is a reactionary stooge and a slave to his idols and religion.

no wtf.
Cities cannot function without food. Therefore the economic growth produced by cities requires peasants to supply them with food.

Peasants are reactionary animals yes but urbanites are parasites. They don’t produce any value/development. Think Jews who just extract through usury and destroy economies or Eastern despot forcing heavy taxes. Then eventually the barbarians who had enough break through the city gates and destroy the parasitic ‘civilised’ peoples/the host nation (goyim) kicks out the Jew

Tbh what Africa rlly needs is black industrialists who can efficiently exploit the land and generate $$$. The blacksmith who creates tools, the master miner who extracts coal, whatever IDK.

White people aren’t slaves

They can passport maxx in shitholes and they’ll be worshipped as gods. That’s way better than state of nature. We have unprecedented freedom to live any kind of lifestyle imaginable. Life is unbelievably easy for us. You can be the most dysgenic subhuman imaginable and still live comfortable life with easy access to sex (escortmaxx) akin to ancient emperors

Think Hellenes or Romans in antiquity 1000 times over

No, man. This is a normal process. It takes at least 3 generations of living in the city to transition from a rural peasant to a city dweller. The level of education in rural and urban areas is significantly different. If the level of education is different, so are the opportunities.

As for the concentration of capital only in large cities, this is normal. Where there are many consumers, there are also many services and opportunities. You won't open a beer bar or a bakery in a village; you'll open it in a million-plus city, where there are many young people who move in search of education or employment. The same applies to any industry, from private hospitals to private schools.
Where there are a lot of people, there is more money, and more money means more goods and services available for consumption, and the quality of everything from housing and utilities to the quality of life is higher.

As long as the urban elite are eating their fill that’s enough. The city is a parasite that stifles development. The military only exists to suppress internal rebellion. Economic progress and the education of the people are a threat to the power of the corrupt regime and suppressed as a result. Urban growth from economic opportunities is different tbh

People go to cities to beg, prostitute, scam or work as servants on the cheap. There’s no real jobs just hustlers.

Where are all the factories, airports, shipping ports, and financial centers are all located? Almost all economic value is generated in cities, rural people produce nothing except for food and for that they think they are better than us.

It’s the other way around

Financial centres, industry and travel ports attract people and create urban development. Cities are just a byproduct, basically human bloat. Industry always starts off as some mining villages or rural handicrafts

Railways are built across the countryside, construction requires rural cooperation and a state capable of keeping order the countryside. Otherwise locals can hassle you, extort you and steal building materials. Colonial expansion revolved around venturing into the bush and dealing with rural tribes. Cities matter but myopia is fatal
