Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • I'm not going to lie, it's a red state, and has red state problems. I do know a number of gay and trans people here; I'm sure at least some of them want to get out. The thing that makes WY a bit different from OK and TX is that, by and large, people do want to leave others alone by default. This conservative scare shit does work, of course, so it's a problem. But it's always going to stay that way if the demographics don't change.

  • Conservatives go to red states and liberals go to blue as the country grows more polarized
  • Wyoming would be the easiest to change, frankly, and even one red state flipping to purple (or even blue) would change the Senate landscape incredibly. It's nice here; almost all small towns, and even in some of the larger ones it's easy to walk to work instead of driving.

  • GOP had evidence disproving Biden bribery claims in 2019, top Democrat says
  • That’s probably a pro for them, not a con — they know exactly what the merit of their claims is, and that there isn’t any, and baseless accusations are what really get their supporters going. The crazier, the less supported, the better.

  • Biden says he's "not big on abortion," but Roe "got it right"
  • This is still frustrating language to use, because basically no one is big on abortion. Essentially nobody wants an abortion. "Hey guys, who feels like going out for abortions? My treat!" It's not a fucking Big Mac or candy or something that is merely seen as an indulgence. It just reinforces the idea that the right wing has been successful at implanting, that abortion is merely an example of modern excess that we feel comfortable judging others for indulging in (one way or the other), rather than a medical procedure that's got nothing to do with anyone outside the person having it and the doctor performing it.
