Are they really conservatives though?
Good question.
ff
Many are, but many are not.
Hammering the stake of the trogolo-con lie about people bringing Liberal Cancer wherever they move. If they unslacked their jaws for a minute and researched, they would see Red States are getting redder, not bluer but hey, its so much easier to lie.
Then came the kommiefornians.
Ping
Please, please, PLEASE leave your California and New York voting mindsets in those states when you leave. True conservatives are welcome but please don't turn Texas into California and Florida into New York. I live in Florida for a reason, I don't want it turned into a dump like New York.
Well now. Not only do we have someone who is wise beyond that of most freepers, but that wisdom inspires snark. Interesting.
Since my research skills pale in contrast to yours, and the anecdotal evidence I get makes me a “liar”, please, enlighten me?
“please don’t turn Texas into California and Florida into New York.”
Ditto for TN. We in TN are hicks, mostly toothless, can’t read, usually barefoot, brew hooch in our garages, have terrible healthcare. Don’t come here; you wouldn’t like it.
This is my view. Secession is the only peaceful result of the political, cultural and philosophical differences we have in this country. Otherwise, its two warring tribes fighting for total control over the central government - the Left because centralized power and totalitarianism is what they believe in, the Right due to self defense. There will reach a point when one side is losing and refuses to accept their defeat. Democrats never accepted 2016 and are threatening to refuse an electoral loss this time even more so.
All you have to do is look at the past....Red states or purple states that are now blue or turning blue...Trump cannot change that....the only hope is that moderate democrats wake up...
Colorado turned from a conservative state to blue....democrats were at one time fairly conservative...
Californians have overrun the state...left in 2000
The California definition of “conservative” is “not quite as much of a Communist at Kamala Harris”.
Not encouraging.
The Dems will not win without a bloody fight.
I live in a small town in the Midwest. The migration is real. Several from Chicago, California and New York have moved here in the past two months.
They left home to find a place to raise their family.
“The fear among conservatives was that the pandemic would smoke leftists out of their hives and that they would spread to more conservative areas and take over. This does not seem to be the case. In fact, it appears that most leftists are stubbornly refusing to acknowledge that their states are dying and are actively defending state policies on the web.”
I hope the writer is right about this. But every time I hear the phrase “that’s not the way we did it back where I came from” my radar goes off that I may have encountered a leftist locust come to infest my area.
Price increases of what? Moving trucks? Rent or real estate in the places they want to move to? What exactly does this look like?
No, and they keep voting Democrat ( see Virginia)
That hasnt been the case in Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Texas, New Mexico etc. California and northeast migration has not made them redder. It has turned them or put them in danger.
