Shop NYC Top

I noticed a pattern on social media where New Yorkers, especially the natives, seem to speak of transplants in a rather negative light, saying stuff like “They’ll never be real New Yorkers” and mean stuff like that. Still, the same people seem to be much kinder and welcoming towards immigrants from other countries and have no trouble calling them real New Yorkers. And excuse my ignorance, but why is this? Isn’t it almost the same?
