'I'd take Blackpool over Dubai any day; the latter seems like a superficial hellscape.'
'Everywhere has its bad parts' is a common line uttered when talking about even the most affluent of areas. And it's definitely the kind of sentiment staunch supporters of Blackpool will utter.
READ MORE: I rode Blackpool Pleasure Beach's century old Big Dipper for the first time in decades and I've never laughed so hard User r/No-Body-446 slammed the "massively sweeping generalisations" about Blackpool on Reddit and beyond, saying that the place gets a "rep it doesn't deserve". While r/swan--ronson echoed this sentiment with aplomb, writing: "To be fair I'd take Blackpool over Dubai any day; the latter seems like a superficial hellscape."
An additional relatively measured response to the OP post said: ""It's a town comparable to a thousand other alright towns in the country but with miles of iconic scenery, but it's seen as fair game for snobs to rip apart for some reason."
