Don't forget the decade of college and a couple hundred thousand bucks for a failed business.

Exploiting the public to pay for a Porch? Never heard of such a thing.
You didn't date them, John. You jacked off to them because you wanted to be them.

I grew up in the Deep South and never heard or read of part of a Southern city being called a shantytown.
But I read plenty of books that mentioned Northern shantytowns, typically in reference to the Shanty Irish (as opposed to the Lace Curtain Irish).
John, ever the moron, is applying a term he learned in Boston to Mississippi.

I don't think I usually hear anyone use the word revengance in a sentence. Did John pull out his thesaurus or copy it from Metal Gear? I'm still betting on the latter.
Oh, John is one of those guys that's overly pedantic about how people aren't pronouncing it "pour-sha" isn't he? For a man who frequently makes so many grammatical errors in his tweets, he really shouldn't throw stones. He could always just accept that majority of people pronounce it the way they read it and move on, but that's our John for ya.
Whenever I hear anyone correct someone in real life it always reminds me of this scene.

Would Slab City even be a "shantytown?" When I think "shantytown" I dont think "place off-beat hippy types voluntarily go to live off the grid." So Burning Man is a "shantytown?"
Now I dont know what the homeless situation is like in "the south," but i was about to say, apparently California is apparently now "the south."

I always thought of them as towns of squatters which is why I brought up Slab city. I don't think of it as a typical shanty town, but it was also the first thing that popped up when I searched for famous US shanty towns. Places like Centralia, PA would count by my definition I guess since the only people still living there are squatters. The only shanties you're going to find in the US these days that resemble the typical 3rd World tin shack shitholes are homeless encampments. Ghettos and projects might resemble these places in terms of crime, trash, and poverty, but they're not shanties and they aren't unique to the South.

This is John combining two of his more obnoxious habits: the standard liberal disdain for the South and John speaking from a claimed authority he doesn't actually have.
As far as we know, John has lived in only three places in Mississippi: Hattiesburg (likely in a gated community or a large property far from the poor), Oxford (likely in a nice apartment far from the poor), and around Jackson when he went to Millsaps (see above). At no time was John ever around poor people, nor does he have any idea how poor Southerners live today.
Personally, I actually have been all over the South, and I have never once seen a shantytown in my life. Plenty of trailer parks, of course, but even the worst of those don't count as a shantytown by definition; the structures aren't thrown together from whatever can be salvaged, and those who are living there pay rent to stay there. It wouldn't shock me that John is conflating the two, but again, he's just wrong. And while there are certainly poor communities in the South (the Delta in Mississippi is full of 'em), using "shantytown" as a blanket term for a run-down area is still wrong.
John's talking out of his ass once again, insulting Southerners and continuing the stereotype of how they're all just backwards gun-loving Bible-thumping illiterate hicks. He insists on being an expert when he's so far removed from the South that he frankly possesses no experience at all. So, y'know, typical John.
And like you and others have said, if you want to see the modern-day shantytown, look no further than the tent cities in California.

Ridiculous, a man who said this repeatedly spelled "Porsche" as "Porche."
That's because they essentially don't exist. John is making up bullshit, or just too stupid even to know what an actual shanty town is. The closest (other than Slab City) would be semi-permanent homeless encampments, but these are generally tents or other movable shelter, not permanent structures built of improvised materials.
Homeless encampments are generally ushered on, making it a waste of effort to try to build something permanent. There are definitely some very remote, run-down parts of the South, often in unpleasant locations like swamps, unless you happen to like them which some people do, where sometimes people have improvised housing made of boats.
Things like this and improvised housing on the banks of the Mississippi River used to be all over the place, but haven't in decades. There are at most a few structures here and there, but nothing like an actual "shanty town."

Dear dear John, have you already forgotten the lessons of "#charlotesville" and gone back to cracking antisemitic "master race" jokes?
Who the fuck asked you, you autistic psycho.

Don't forget about John having to ask the Porsche Forums how to drive stick. I don't think I've borne witness to a bigger poser in my life.

Someone linked to a post he made on Planet-9.com asking for help with shifting. Like a week later he was all over social media talking about what a great driver he was in regards to driving stick. You would think owning/riding a motorcycle would have taught him the basics of shifting. Kinda makes you wonder.

This is John, so there's a non-zero chance he actually thinks "revengance" is an actual word.
There's definitely some shabby housing in Mississippi, mostly in the Delta and North Mississippi which is part of Appalachia. John may have driven through there to get somewhere else but I doubt he's ever so much as stopped for gas in any of these areas. There's some inner-city housing in Jackson and Gulfport, but that's just slum housing, no different from a hundred other towns and cities across the US. John himself always lived in college towns and his parents' nice suburban home.
Lol, this gangly hunchback in a stained cocktail dress twitching and girning in it's backyard, ordering around a gape-mouthed small asian weirdo wearing a pokemon hat while the golfers next door watch the spectacle.
Also, I doubt they've even met their neighbors. Possibly Frank has.

He probably spent several minutes googling before stealing that example from computerhope.com.
That is a lot of work.
If he wanted to make a point about old computers being hard, he should have chosen DMA and IRQ, but that is way above his understanding.

I can just see John presiding at his backyard soiree of horror.
At the main picnic table he will lay out a balloon containing two meatballs with a few strands of spaghetti squeezed in over them. A large Hebrew National hot dog will be stuffed into the neck of the balloon. With a dramatic flourish, John will whip out one of his womanly butterfly knives and deftly flick it open before launching into a mesmerizing demonstration of the knifework involved in sexual reassignment surgery.
Wish I could be there.
