Why don't we have World's Fairs anymore

why dont we still do them?

we do, their called "international expeditions now"

there is one in 2017 in Kazakastan

their just not as important anymore because of the internet, ideas can easily travel around now

We do

You're just not invited, OP

Because everybody can just watch shit on youtube now

Because people aren't optimistic about the future anymore.

when was the last big fair?

The establishment forgot what true progress is.

Expo 86 desu

There are world's fairs to this day

There was one in 1967.

He asked for the last big one.

oops

internet

>mfw i was there

memorieeees

>two mcdonalds right next to each other

American cities have been reluctant to field the cost burden of world's fairs.

they don't really bring money in, and budgets are tight as of late...

Because modern art is more up to the user and the death of the upper class
