Gee, and there's no reason at all, none, for high-end retailers on the Magnificent Mile in Chicago to close their doors, is there?

Retail Vacancy on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile More Than Doubles from Pre-Pandemic Levels

"Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, Gold Coast, and Irving North neighborhoods and neighboring commercial districts were targeted by 'car caravans' of people who ransacked high-end stores, such as Saks Fifth Avenue.

Among the tenants that decided not to re-open their stores along the Mag Mile were Macy’s, Uniqlo, and the Gap."

“Practicing Krystallnacht?”

Exactly. He was getting hands-on experience as to what actual Nazis did by emulating Nazis behavior.

“Uhh, the anti facists were the nazis mortal enemies.”

Theoretically. In practice, they were the same thing, with one group answering to socialist Hitler and the other to socialist Stalin.

More like the “Crips” and the “Bloods” fighting for the same territory and sometimes working together.

Headline should say “Priced at $16,000.”

No way are they “worth” that much.

Fighting perceived Anti Fascism with REAL FASCISM!!

ANTIFA began as ANTI FIRST AMENDMENT, SPEECH IS VIOLENCE,... see Occupy Wall Street, and was very vocal about their beliefs. They changed their motto after realizing they were the REAL FASCISTS

Depends on what they are.

A lot of the non-mass-market stuff are basically functional works of art that takes 100s of hours by skilled craftsmen.

I wouldn’t want it (for multiple reasons), but it’s a bit like trying to value a Porsche by the value of its aluminum.

And, yes, a lot is just junk trading on the name.

He is a Harvard University graduate who’s now studying “history and fascism” at the City University of New York.

His skills of sorting data is very limited.

Well, no.

Fascism is merely a type of socialism.
