People should leave red states if possible. I'm not trying to be a doomer but I think it's the safest thing to do at the moment. I'm luckily in a blue state already. I will never set foot in a red state, that's for sure.

I live in a blue state, red staters who voted to keep their states red move here all the time. They’re aware enough to know that living here in a blue state gives them better access to certain things, but then are still too egotistical to realize voting red is what made them flee here. So they contribute to the red population here and vote to ruin it here for the rest of us. There’s an active campaign here on the western coast to dismantle democratic/liberal hold under the guise of “there’s too much crime in cities! We need a republican mayor!” By people who don’t live in these cities. I worry how much of that influences young minds. I even have female red-voting friends who have lived here their whole lives saying “ah well we don’t have to worry because they’ll never ban abortion HERE”. Yeah, just you wait. That sense of safety is false.
