I’m not getting anything on the enshitified search engines. I read a book about five big cities that talked about it, and other issues like sprawl and air pollution, some twenty plus years ago, then about 20 years back there were a couple of articles in the NYTimes, this was before they sucked entirely as now, back when they actually put out a small book of material everyday, before they were downgraded, and surrendered to the republicans.
The Times articles, at least one specifically talked about Cairo.
I don’t know how to find information now, the search engines used to work, and now don’t. I typed in the information, and the results were not even trying to give me what I asked for. I know it can work because it did work. Using startpage, but duckgo, and the other corposearches are the same if not worse, since 2021 they’ve gotten worse.
Anyway if I find something I will post it back on here.
Honestly if it was something you read 20 years ago and there’s nothing about it to be found today, there’s a chance it was nothing but racist nonsense. (Not saying you’re racist or anything, just that the source might have been and you got taken in).
Google is not the arbiter of knowledge, but the combined search engines are certainly a decent indexer of it. To claim something is ‘common knowledge’ when we’re unable to find a hint of it anywhere online, and is based solely on something you read a couple decades ago, is pretty ridiculous.

It’s actually common knowledge. Google is not the arbiter of knowledge, you better fucking hope so.
To assume it’s racist is ignorant. As such I will not waste further time on your request.
