You can always tell when someone has been to NYC but hasn't been to NY outside it because like, they act as if everyone in this state is so privileged and progressive, meanwhile I've seen Confederate flags upstate and down where I live over half my classmates are Tr*mp supporters, and my county's banned masks and are also trying to ban trans athletes and pass bathroom bill laws and anti abortion laws. But this state's soooo progressive, right? And because it's one of the ~coastal~ states where people are so progressive we're privileged? Please for the love of god leave NYC in this state because most of this state is red and if NYC wasn't holding the line we'd be a red state overall

#vent #not tagging this with anything else lmfao but iykyk #my county (and a lot of this state) want to become like those southern and midwest states #and are on that way #so it's wild to see people act like most of this state is progressive when it's not #also if people don't WANT to leave their homes? instead of fixating on “uwu some of them are like us and wanna leave!” as if that's the only #valid response... mayhaps let's just try to make those places safer? for our fellow queers who DON'T wanna leave? instead of writing them #off. idk idk like. we shouldn't pit against each other and it rubs me wrong when people act like a. coastal areas are auto progressive and #b. all queers in places that aren't esp in the south and midwest who don't wanna leave don't exist/aren't as valid #aren't in places like those coastal places/blue states*#and this without getting into the absolute mindfuck that are gays/trans people for tr*mp which. big fucking yikes tbh!!!#if we write off ANY of our fellow queers as lost causes it should be them
