A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

Or the government could just build trains out to there.
I saw a picture of a train station in China that had been built in the middle of nowhere. Stairs from the subway leading up onto a grassy field. The Americans all laughed at China for it. Then I saw a picture of that same train station five years later. It was in the middle of a metropolis. China has so much housing that there are entire cities sitting empty. Now, if a country with two billion people can manage that, Canada has no excuse.
I would look up "Tofu Dregs" before applauding China...
Oh boy, again with the stupid racist conspiracy theories
What conspiracy theory? The CCP has jailed people over it. It's well known.
They called you a racist, so they win by default. /s
Oh my god are you a CIA agent or are you just stupid enough to blindly believe everything the CIA fking tells you?
Taiwan Number 1!
Oh yeah, weaponize that fking puppet state
Smh
Taiwan Best China!
~~Yes, a very real city with very real residents, and definitely not a mostly-unfinished facade designed to keep the real estate bubble from popping. /s~~
No wait, it's just an example of a station not in the middle of nowhere.
Wait 10 and see if it hasn't collapsed by then.
I would think twice before repeating things I think I know about China from a picture I saw on the Internet

Is this enough sources?
That's an infill station. Meaning it's in the middle of an existing city. So, basically, right past the empty fields there was Chongqing in every direction.
