Yes, oxymoron I know. But like many of you, I am stuck in :amerikkka:

So if you could pick anywhere to live in the States, where would it be? And why? Ideally where far left ideology is the norm.

    Ideally where far left ideology is the norm.

    These cities are probably as close as you'd get and they all have their own pros and cons: Olympia WA, Eugene OR, Burlington VT, Portland OR, Minneapolis-St. Paul MN. Madison WI might be on a similar level as well. Worth mentioning that while leftist ideology is a norm in these places (to different extents) it is not a majority position anywhere except maybe Burlington, although idk exactly how it's fared since Bernie's days.

    Could also consider Puerto Rico which I believe has less Ameri-brain, but surely has its own flavor of brainworms just like literally anywhere.

        From personal experience; Only if you can't make it to Chicago. Minneapolis is very gay and has a bunch of leftist orgs but the white lutheran scandanavian majority are a bunch of insular racist assholes. If you're going to be spending most of your time with white people I'd strongly recommend Chicago.

      Thanks for the recs-- I really don't expect full blown majority anywhere, just sizable population that at least has a somewhat prevalent voice
