Just arrived home from a 4 days camping adventure out in the mountains of Central Pennsylvania. We chose to take only local roads and highways to avoid tolls both there and back. Once beyond the outer suburbs the political signage on front lawns gets more and more frequent as you get further out into flyover country. Over 4 days of sightseeing all over the area around where we camped and the traveling to and from we saw only one Biden sign on a lawn. And that was in State College which as its name suggests is a college town. And the only town we visited where open businesses had boarded up store fronts to protect them from rioters.
During all this we only saw one BLM sign in the town of Millheim. Which I found ironic since the town has only one black resident.

There was an overabundance of Trump support signs everywhere we traveled. An uncountable number of them.
At least in PA it's safe to bet that Bidet is going down the commode come November. It's a large state with a rural population greater than that of its crime and libtard infested cities.

Online polls and news media never lie? Is this what you're implying?

In flyover country it seems that everyone can still express themselves freely without fear of reprisals. People put out signs for either direction. I even saw a house with two Dixie flags on either side of an American flag hanging from the porch. Only a few miles from the house with the BLM sign.

I think I need to move to flyover country. Less lefty repression in effect there. It's still the land of the free home of the brave opposed to land of the indoctrinated home of the mediocre.

I lived in NC near the Outer Banks for 3 years and I miss it. I moved away to help family but if it weren't for that I'd probably still be there.
I haven't been happy since coming North again. It changed for the worse while I was gone and keeps getting worse each year since returning. Now that my dad's gone I don't have any reason to stick around.
People here are dumber, more ignorant and nastier than ever. And the population density keeps getting higher and higher. Traffic congestion is totally insane everywhere you go. Crime just spirals upwards endlessly and gets sicker and more gruesome. And the costs are intolerable. The taxes are shocking. The pollution has me in a constant allergy attack that only goes away once a year when I go camping in the mountains.
And all the places I have good memories of are gone now. Bulldozed for bypasses, stripmalls or overpriced condos that resemble prisons. And you're not allowed to enjoy yourself anymore. It's all rules and regulations and repressions. You can't live.

My old lady just got notice the school she works at isn't reopening and she's going on furlough next week. Need to convince her to GTFO now. I've put the bug in her ear.

"Now ya need to park the Uhaul in the driveway,,"

 Start putting stuff in it too.  Start with yours of course, and all the food.

 I can't take Denver even though it would be closer to most my work in CO but it's in a similar boat.  Traffic, smog, crime, and a totally ridiculous cost of living.  Glad I don't have to convince anyone to move.

Spent 5 days in Denver for a conference my old job bought me a ticket to. It was expensive. It was right after they legalized pot and the place seemed to be under invasion from West Coast hipsters. Met up with a friend of mine who'd recently moved there and she was having a hell of a time making ends meet. She said the salaries weren't keeping up with the cost of living and all over people were fed up with it. And she said that finding work there was harder than anywhere she'd been and only got 1 response for each 100 applications she filled out. She's an accountant. To her the people there didn't want to know anyone from other places and she thought that was the trouble with getting work.

One thing about the place I liked was the infrastructure wasn't in crumbling decay like all East Coast cities. And it was impressively clean by comparison too.
Not somewhere I'd want to move though.

I work in the transit industry and was very impressed with their mass transit system. Really smartly run and modern.

LOL @ Suburu driving lesbians!  
Storms were a huge PITA in NC. The town would flood out. One time my house was an island for 2 days and I was trapped.
Then the Great Dismal Swamp catches fire each summer and the choking peat smoke is everywhere.

This is timely.

I feel exactly the same way now...
