    I think most major cities in the midwest have at the very least some lefty-friendly radlib enclaves (and I'm not using radlib as a perjorative here, I mean it in the good sense like the folks who genuinely hate racism). My hometown (>2 million MSA) has a sizable part of town where you could openly be a socialist and most folks would probably be cool with it and you could probably find some like-minded folks. Meanwhile where I live in CA has a pretty solid reactionary base here. So things aren't all black and white. But yeah, if you're talking about a balkanization situation I can't think of a state I'd rather be in than CA.

    If you want to know more about what city/enclave I'm talking about just DM me.
