I live in the city of Seattle. I don’t know how to explain it other than they are just so... idk - partisan, conditioned, brainwashed... to support the Democrat party and knee jerk assume that Republicans are all rich, evil racists. It doesn’t matter who is on the ticket... it could be Satan himself or a ham sandwich, if there’s a ‘D’ next to the name thats the one getting the vote.
There are huge homeless camps in my very expensive and trendy neighborhood. I see people organizing on next door to go down there with portable batteries so that these poor down on their luck folks can charge their phones. And then in the very next post a bunch of people wondering why there seems to be such an increase in breaks ins. It boggles the mind.
While I would love to think Trump could win here I honestly think there’s a better chance he actually won California (and I think that is still prob a long shot) than possibly won WA. While most people I talk to don’t have anything good to say about Inslee I’m sure that the vast majority of them still voted for him because... Democrat. This place is lost. And I can’t wait to leave.
I certainly agree that it’s always worth poking around to see if things are on the up and up! A truly honest process should always welcome scrutiny from all sides.
I guess you’ll have to forgive me feeling pretty bleak about it. I’ve just watched it get more and more one sided over the years. I’ve lived here for 20 years... while it was always a very strongly Democrat and liberal area... life was normal, people essentially agreed to disagree. Being a conservative or republican might find you on the receiving end of some liberal lecturing but not worrying about physical harm. There was never this level of outright hatred and demonizing of the other side.
I so hope that Sidney has the goods that she claims to have. I think it really will take something jaw dropping, akin to a 2x4 to the head to knock most of these people back into reality. And even then I worry that some of them still won’t believe it, no matter how overwhelming the evidence.
