The BEST (but not easiest) way to change politics in this country to true Blue for a good while is for enough Democratic people to move to Red counties in Red states, enough to turn the tide.

@Astartiel

I don't see moving to Numbskull, Hellabama in the hopes of swinging an election as a motivational prospect for a lot of people.

@Astartiel it's been discussed. wyoming first then dakotas.

@annamousse It would work but it would take a concerted effort to pull off.

@Astartiel

It's also about engaging the Democrats in those areas who have lost interest in the political process and getting NPAs who see the terrible things happening to vote accordingly.

@Astartiel It's kind of hard to do that for most people (my family can't afford to be choosy where we live, for instance), especially without draining blue votes from elsewhere.

But could it work?

@AskTheDevil @Astartiel Sure, if they are cishet white Christian males. But why would they willingly endanger their families if their families include women, BIPOC, Jews/Muslims/Buddhists/Sikhs/etc, or LGBTQIA? We are not talking about theoretical harms here. Womens healthcare is now demonstrably worse in red states. I tell recruiters that I refuse to move to any state that does not respect human rights.
