Usually I can see something and immediately think how the average retarded leftist would try to counter it. They're known to be the predictable sort, after all. But honestly, what do they say to this? Its a conversation I haven't had with one. What further undeniable proof that blue states are shitholes and people would rather live in red states does one need?
I’m curious how do leftists explain this?
From what I have seen of this sort of stuff like cost of living, job availability, "quality of life", etc. Some have also pointed to the fact that there is data showing a lot of the new arrivals are in some cases more conservative than the locals (I know Florida and Texas found that data), so they say something like "Looks like we are just getting rid of all the Right Wing racist trash. Sounds like a good thing to me!"
Meanwhile, their states continue to die, and they just refuse to do anything because they dont think anything is wrong. Of course, this will result in a shift of political power away from them, so its all good in the end.
Here in Texas I used to hate seeing Californians arrive but then I saw the data showing most are coming because the are more conservative so I shut up about that lol
A lot of people did, because it was the Californians coming that made places like Colorado move more Blue. But from what I have seen of the recent data, apparently the Left-Wing Californians are either staying there, or if they are leaving they are going to other left-wing hubs like Portland or Seattle.
Same applies with the New York Expats, where the Left-Wing ones are going to places like Massachusetts or Vermont while the Right-Wingers are going to the Carolina's or Florida.
