Well, there’s a reason that Cary (Raleigh’s biggest suburb) actually stands for “Containment Area for Relocated Yankees.” The Triangle is lousy with halfbacks and folks who were transferred down from up north when their employers moved to Research Triangle Park or elsewhere in the area.
The other problem is that while Raleigh/Wake County are very purple, the other two “points” of the Triangle—Durham/Durham County and Chapel Hell/Orange County—are two of the three most liberal places in the state (only Asheville even comes close). Chapel Hill is a hippy-dippy college town and Durham is a black-run black-racist hellhole where the main entertainment is the local yoots shooting each other over drug deals gone bad, when they aren’t assaulting white joggers on the trails. There’s a reason, as a former five-year resident of Durham, that I call the place Zimbabwe With a Ballpark.

That would have been interesting, LOL.
When he used that kind of language with me, my head exploded. I told him that might be the way they try to intimidate women where he comes from, but down here it doesn’t fly.
There are some true nuts out there and they’re unpredictable. I have a temper, and it could have gotten me in trouble with the guy who bumped my car.
“North South Florida”....LOL, God help us.
mobocracy...look it up. Just what The Founders feared
The influx of license plates from NY, NJ, and Delaware has been increasing steadily over the past few years down here.
My neighborhood in Red Hampshire is chock-full of relocated New Yorkers, and your description fits to a 'T'.
Here in Texas, when the 'Rats were staging protests at the legislature against the anti-abortion bill, they advertised for protesters on Craig's List in Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston.
The deal was a $45/day rate, with a free busride to Austin and back.
That's the 'Rat version of "grass roots spontaneity".
