I live in an affluent part of South Carolina. It’s become completely overrun with Trump assholes and degenerates. I don’t know how much longer I can take it. Where can we go?
I don’t want the bitter cold of the northeast or Chicago. I don’t want coastal California, it’s insufferable. What are my options? Why can’t we just be fucking normal?!
What’s wrong with California?
Too awesome
Come to Finland. I have absolutely zero clue about what party my neighbours vote. Hell, I don’t even know who my friends of parents vote.
I would love to move to Finland.
I genuinely want to move there if trump wins. Could someone who only speaks english function there?
Most Finns speak english pretty well, especially ones that are under 40 years old. However finding a job as someone not speaking Finnish can be a struggle. Fluent english skills alone aren’t something most companies would see as a big advantage as most people fresh out of school can pretty much do that as well. Finnish is a difficult language to learn but you don’t need to be perfect at it either. A foreigner willing to even try and learn the language is hugely appreciated. My russian neighbour knows like 30 words but that’s enough to get thru most conversations one needs to have with a neighbour.
Cincinnati is pretty diverse, but also corrupt law enforcement.
If you wany a rural setting you’re probably fucked.
If you’re looking for a SC kind of ‘city’ I would suggest perhaps Colorado, or something like Bend Oregon, or Spokane Washington. More isolated cities without large populations and also surrounded by that rural character.
Colorado is great, just don’t move anywhere near Colorado Springs unless you wanna help turn it purple. The city is a Republican enclave wrapped around the Air Force Academy.
Atlanta, Denver, somewhere in Virginia, Maryland, or DC, or possibly Ohio or Pennsylvania. There’s places like Austin and some places in Florida that might have cool people, but the state government is trash.
I saw Greenville recommended, and this is anecdotal, but last time I was there visiting friends, we (visibly queer) got followed around by this crazy guy with a metal pipe making all kinds of death threats. I love my friends but that sealed the deal for me on not wanting to live there. There are some neat places there ngl, the sex themed desert restaurant was a fun place for a queerplatonic hangout, but in general it’s not exactly going to be a refuge from Trump supporters.
I wouldn’t recommend any place that votes red, even if you live in a blue city, because the state’s laws still apply to blue cities and sometimes are even made specifically to make blue cities worse
Speaking of Virginia, stay in the north half. Down here in the southern part is maga fucks as far as the eye can see.
One down the road just put up a huge Confederate flag and two large trump flags. Instead of fixing their collapsing roof. Priorities I guess…
Come to Columbus, Ohio. It doesn’t have the name recognition of Seattle or Denver, but it’s a pretty chill city with decent weather, good people, and a lower cost of living than just about anywhere else while also having job opportunities.
plus, Steven and Elise Keaton! (Family Ties was set there)
I dont know why but this just summoned in my brain the ancient text, the knowledge…
Come to Kenya; we got lions
Greenville. That downtown is perfection.
45 minutes outside of Portland, OR in any direction will get you somewhere just as rural as the place you left in SC, only with better weather and sane laws.
Accurate, but be careful because once you go 2+ hours outside of Portland, OR you will likely find yourself once again among cognitively challenged folks…
Heck, 10 minutes past Portland city limits and it’s Dodge Rams and Trump flags.
Definitely don’t keep going into Idaho

Well I’m in Tucson, AZ right now. It’s a pretty liberal city in a decidedly purple rural state. Mountains and wildlife are gorgeous.
But it’s Tucson…
Exactly! You get to be surrounded by nature, and not concrete and pavement like that other city.
Haha! Phoenix definitely loves to pave over its history.
I have deep roots in Tucson but only went there to visit my grandparent. They lived north of Tanque Verde with nothing around them. Beautiful area but boring as a kid.
SC doesn’t have any blue bubbles? I’m in Texas and i only know about 5 people that i think are probably trumpsters.
Only blue bubble I know of is Charleston? But I promise you the white people there aren’t blue voters.
Closest I have heard of is Greenville, and its surrounding area is definitely red.
This NBC link on the 2020 presidential election is somewhat surprising, though. Maybe the US Senate results, as they narrow that potential blue bubble down to either Richland county or tiny Allendale.
I guess you could go to Georgia. You could go to Savannah or St. Simons. Make the state slightly more purple.
North Carolina is a crapshoot. Virginia?
Those are your options. Feel free to move to Tennessee: you won’t like it, but I’d like my state to turn purple eventually so all libs are welcome.
Edit: I used to live in Macon, and I hated it, but it’s apparently amazing to visit now, so maybe you can live there if you don’t need to work.
You just sound like a miserable cunt so move where ever you want and accept noone wants to be around you as much as you don’t wanna be around them.
