A buddy just had a libtard from Washington move in next door.

He commented on her Biden/Harris bumpersticker, she replied; I voted Biden as I thought it was time to bring some INTEGRITY back to the office"

They truly are crazy.

I cringe when I see CA, OR and WA posted here in Arizona. Wish there was a bounty.

They need to be confined to the shithole they’ve created.


Roll Eyes Um, Yeah. No conservatives in any of those states. none. gotcha. Roll Eyes

Arizona and Texqs need to herd all those migrating Californians into New Mexico--it's already Blue and getting Bluer won't matter.

It did not. And that is why I disagree with the naïve belief that when people move away from something they didn’t like, they will leave the things they didn’t like behind them. There are at least two major reasons for that: humans are resistant to change in their lives, and many (most?) are literally too stupid to understand what it was that led to the conditions that they move away from with the intention of fleeing.

“Why does the crime rate keep rising back there?”
“Racism against the immigrants moving in.”
“Oh, makes sense. Well, we don’t live there any more, but to keep the crime rate down among all the immigrants that are moving here, let’s require our businesses to have at least 40 hours per year of diversity training for their employees. (Back where we came from they were only required to have 20 hours of training a year; that wasn’t enough, though, so we should increase it.)”

Virginia got turned progressive by NJites and Marylanders fleeing high taxes, Indian tech workers, as well as DC civil-service spill overs. Virginia used to be very conservative. Hell, some of our democratic governors passed our best gun laws. No more. Our state is controlled by the liberal northern part of the state. Some parts of NOVA, including Loudoun County, have so many Indian tech workers it sometimes looks like New Dehli, except there aren't piles of garbage and free-flowing sewage in the streets - but give it time. Indians are the hardest left of the left.

Yep, see a lot of NY plates here now, there is an article circulating that we'll have the highest rise in property values since 2005 pct wise.

Maybe its time to sell, buy some land and a house in East TN.

Such people don't connect the flash with the bang, the cause with the effect. They don't realize (or don't admit) that it's their own philosophies/choices that cause the problems about which they complain.

But I do have to question the author of the article. Did she really mean to say San Francisco?? Wink

This is why I say Leftism is the zombie apocalypse. That they can’t or won’t associate choices with consequences is what makes their disease virulent. They infect everything they touch. And consume the healthy with stunning voracity.

I hope I get the benefit of the doubt when I move to a red state. Should I just open carry a 1911 and slap a trump bumper sticker on my truck?

sigfreund: I agree with you.
Most Lib/Prog/GDCs who move out will still be what they are. They will colonize rather than convert. Conservatives who escape a Lib/Prog state like Cali or New York will still be what they are too, but may be in the minority.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Left the Rotten Apple and never looked back.
Moved upstate where the people are caring, the air is clean, and, in my county, more cows than people.
NYC is a concrete jungle populated by haves and have nots, with a rapidly disappearing middle class.
The state's governor is a pompous dictator and the mayor an asshat.

This is why there needs to be a 5 year moratorium on voting when those bastards move to new states.

Concur. IME, the left are too stupid to realize that they are responsible for the situation based on their decisions and actions. But beyond, that the left seem to have a real absence of accountability. Issues that happen are always someone else's fault. So, even if they make some association, some else is to blame for reality.

The young leftists who are smart enough to make the associations and also hold themselves accountable eventually become conservatives.

I think that's a bullseye. They are the authors of their own demise (and the demise of many around them). Plus, they will blame someone else for the problems they themselves caused.

I am saddened by otherwise good people I know who are in that boat. Their disease is a mix of ignorance, some arrogance, and brainwashing.

As others have clearly stated that these bastards leave their shit holes and come pollute the rest of America. These parasites need to just stay where the hell they are and not ruin the rest of the country. Personally, I despise all F'ing democrats as they are the problem!
So, all you commie democrat BASTARDS, we do not want you; PERIOD! And I do not care if anyone is offered by my comment. YOU are the problem as well.

It couldn't hurt. Sedulously avoid mentioning how you did things where you left.

A year ago I heard on the radio that 200 Californians A DAY move to AZ. Assuming the vast majority of them are liberals, it’s no surprise that AZ is turning blue.

You can even feel it on the freeways in the Phoenix area, people driving faster than ever, and following more closely. Kinda like Los Angeles!

If you were living on entitlements, would you move from a bankrupt state to a financially solvent state ?
