Who can blame them when all they have seen is years of dragged out ineffective half measures? I don’t want that to continue either, it was ineffective.
We needed hard and fast crackdowns way earlier, similar to China. Anything short of that is pissing in the ocean
It’s hilarious the victim complex of American Chuds. The restrictions on them, especially in rightwing and rural areas, was basically non-existent. They had to get a vaccine shot and wear a mask in some grocery markets for a couple months. That’s it. Fucking children.
Nobody even had to get the shot. Nobody forced anyone. Same with masks outside of doctors offices.
I live in a small trumpy town, and people kept going to the store and taking maskless selfies and posting them on the local FB pages and saying "look! No mask!" as of there is a single lib within 25 miles of here to "own"
I remember the absolute outrage too, them claiming that they are oppressed yet I am the odd man (err...enby) out for wearing masks. Soon enough I'll have enough money to GTFO, whether that be in another country or a small enclave in the US idk, I'm tired of being an impostor.
I actually chose to live here. It's in the middle of the woods, and I live just far enough outside of the town part to really have to interact with any of them.
Pretty much everyone that lives here is related to one of two families, and they all know each other at the store, bar or... The other bar. I just try not to engage, because I stick out like a sore thumb. Everyone has been pleasant, but I can read their yard signs and bumper stickers loud and clear.
In the last major election, my wife and I voted for Howie Hawkins. You can check the percentages of how people vote in our township, and out of 300, 8 people voted for him. I have company somewhere
Glad you found somewhere you like. The main reason I want to get away aside from the CHUDs is the fact that I have never really left my hometown and I kind of want to change that.
If someone is trying to kill me over this post, I guess they would be doing me a favor since I don't want to live in a world where I'm scared to talk about the fuckin trees outside
I'm a commie in burgerstan and I barely give a shit anymore. I have to work and there's no institutional support for any ongoing safety measures. There's nothing I can do, so fuck it.

Well if they worked for the government or certain companies they did, or they had to quit/be fired.
True. I kinda forgot about that. I've always worked for very small companies
Hey, a fellow small town burger lefty!

It's worth exploring, but one big lesson I learned is "you can't move away from yourself".
Just make sure you're doing it for the right reasons. I moved away from here a few times and kept coming back
That's very specific info dude, opsec
I have guns.
