    That’s not a flaw in my point, that’s the whole point. No city has inherent importance, least of all New York. It’s a monument to self-congratulation — a place that mistakes its own noise for relevance. When the money dries up or people move on, it’ll be just another overbuilt relic.

    You keep demanding some mystical definition of “inherent importance” because you need it to exist, not because it does.

    Your just a silly plate of spaghetti at this point and a last word freak.

      Lol dude I was done with this days ago.

      Cool story bro. This is just you redefining common terms to suit your need to appear intelligent. If you move everything important from a city it’s no longer important is your entire point and it’s a stupid one. New York is important. Beijing is important. Washington DC is important. Everyone else knows exactly what that means when they read it. That you don’t is entire your problem.

        what makes you think New York City deserves more relevance than other places? What specifically gives it more importance beyond population size or media attention?

        Ah, there it is! the grand finale of the last word freak. You’ve circled all the way back to saying nothing, but louder this time.
