    I’m all for people staying safe and taking care of themselves, but the problem is moving makes the entire situation worse. Concentrating ourselves into small geographic areas inside cities is what allowed them to gerrymander the shit out of things and get the minority political party locked into outsized political influence.

    Every blue voter that leaves a rural area makes the divide worse. So I praise those who are brave enough to stay.

      Then get everyone in those cities to vote to become separate states. That way your vote not only counts for more but can’t be controlled by them anymore.
