The worst of all of them are the “educwted” whites ...many in late middle age...who should know better but nonetheless are avid democrats. These are the filth that are ruining America IMHO.
South Carolina, esp. Charleston, is still mostly sane.
As much as I sympathize with you, I figure at some point there’ll be no where left to run. My ancestors helped settle western Virginia; their graves lie in various plots that line one picturesque state road in particular through the Alleghenys. After a couple generation hiatus, I’m going to move back to the area and live out my days. Seems right to finish where it began.
Ayn Rand, Capitalism - The Unknown Ideal
I dont rule out coming back. In fact when socialism fails, as it always does, Northern Va, Tidewater, and Richmond will not be happy places. It may become better after that. Maybe.
That is how our glidepath as a country will change away from socialism - when it fails to deliver utopia. If and when one of these progressives gets elected president, some time after both houses of Congress go progressive, the gears of industry stop. Some states will get a preview. Virginia will be one of them.
Mississippi or Kentucky sound like the next home for us.
I think it's probably young people and upper middle class professionals, not working class folks, who may like country music and be easier to assimilate.
Virginia's a special case, though. Because it's the national capital you have government workers as well as recent immigrants who go to NYC, DC, LA, because they don't know the rest of the country when the arrive here.
Agreed VA is a special case.
Most jobless urban immigrants from Chicago, Flint, Cleveland, etc do not listen to Country & Western.
But some do listen to Kanye West and to TBN.
You’re absolutely right about the fault line in Virginia’s GOP. But that internal civil war started long before warner’s third-party endorsement back in ‘94.
If you get a chance, read “The Dynamic Dominion: Realignment and the rise of Competition in Virginia, 1945-1980” by Frank B Atkinson. He wrote the book back in 1991 and i believe it has been updated since then.
Sorry, but it was the greatest generation and the generation before them who voted for FDR’s socialism and LBJ’s great society crap that helped establish a permanent underclass.
The transgenders. The faggots. The pot smoking libertarian addicts. The 60 million murdered unborn Americans.
No, all that came out of the baby boomer generation.
Virginia is just as easy to explain as is DC itself...many,many,*many* residents are getting some kind of government check.
They voted for FDR who promoted socialist policies. Ditto for LBJ. You cannot blame boomers for that. No generation (which is just another phony group identity thing that leftist love to create to divide people) has the corner on virtue or vice. Boomers are often criticized just because there are lots of them and, thus, had a lot of influence on the culture. It was leftist jerks like Walter Cronkite who pretended that all boomers were hippies out smoking weed and participating in demonstrations. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Yes, home to the 1930s.
What is masquerading as the democrat party today is hardcore communism. They are not the same. Only a fool would suggest otherwise. Or somebody woefully uneducated. Which are you?
Google "45 Goals of Communism for America." Pay particular attention to #15.
And, don't bother responding to me again. I'm not wasting any more time reading your idiotic posts.

Then why should I read the link in your reply?
