    You’re in New England aren’t you? BTW if this ends up being true, I actually didn’t stalk your profile to see. I am originally from MA and one of my favorite things about NE, and specifically MA, is that even the most rural spaces have pride flags and very progressive. It’s actually the suburban sprawl areas that are more purple, but not enough to turn any part of the stage red.

    I fucking love the Berkshires and some day I am moving out there, that’s a promise I will keep to myself no matter how chaotic life gets, obviously so long as I am able to control it (eg, not drafted, don’t have to flee the nation, am not abducted by the modern S.A (ICE), etc)

      My family is all over northern NY, and New England, Some PA and WV as well. Even the conservative pockets here are good between authority and your right to exist outdoors.

        I just wish the neolib gun laws weren’t so insane. They know it’s treating a fever when the person is dying from sepsis, and they know capitalism and hyper-individualism is the disease, but these politicians make SOO much money off the system. They also know they can ausage the fears of NIMBYs and suburban white libs with some simple platitudes, get reelected, and continue making bank.

        BTW, I’m not advocating for handing every person who walks into a shop a gun immediately, but as a leftist, I am against disarming the working class.

      I assumed they’re Canadian based on liberal territory. However that doesn’t narrow it down much, looks like most of the territories vote red.

      I was thinking New England too. I grew up in maine and there are very few places you’re banned from loitering. The cops, while still being fascist dirtbags, aren’t as bad as in more populous states.

        LOVE Maine!! I need to visit Arcadia some time. I remember the first time I saw a full grown, wild moose was in Maine along a highway, we were pretty far north (probably about halfway up the state latitude wise), and she was HUGE. She had her fowl with her, and the baby was still the size of a freaking great dane.
