Virginia is lost at this point. Everytime I see someone with a Virginia Gadsden flag license plate I laugh. That state shouldn't even be allowed to use it at this point

As someone who was raised here, I can assure you it is far from a lost cause. There’s a cancer that has taken a stranglehold over our state known as the federal government. A huge portion of the Virginia economy is based off contracts that rely on the federal government’s infrastructure to function.

I am convinced Dominion and its ilk has been fucking with our state for at least 15 years. My congresswoman miraculously won her race despite the Republican having 60% of the vote with 99% reporting. Came down to 21,000 absentee ballots. Did I mention she’s former CIA too?

That area and the cities (Richmond, Charlottesville, etc) outside of NoVA do not help either. The suburbs and the rural areas are furious at what is happening to our state. Hundreds of thousands of people protested Governor Blackface’s gun control. We were peaceful despite the entire nation looking to us to scapegoat.

There are people here who resent that our history is being bastardized by DC transplants with no history or stake here. It’s infuriating.

I spend a lot of time in NoVa. There were a surprising number of Trump signs. Fairfax County, especially. Post-election, I see almost nothing, for Biden. No flags, no bumper stickers. I routinely see people with MAGA-themed adornments, on their cars.

Loudon, though, has gone insane. Especially the situation with the schools. I’m around a lot of younger people, and all of them are fucked, in the head. A lot of their parents were the government contractors who moved in, 10-20 years ago, and drove up real estate prices, to where only the very wealthy could afford anything. Then, the wealthy vote, as they tend to do.

It isn’t part of Virginia, it’s not even a part of the south. It’s a giant cocktail party for swamp rats.

Honestly I want the area surrounding DC and its suburbs to secede and leave the rest of us out of it. So many people south of DC resent how much NoVA dominates our politics with an air of unearned importance in regards to us plebs from outside the Beltway.

The Great grandson of Robert E. Lee said "slavery and racism is America's original sin" then left the church he was a pastor at. I think yall are done.

The Lee’s are a huge family. Another Lee descendant is currently suing the state for the desecration of the Lee monument in Richmond

They’re not all gone

Trump won VA. It's not lost. Fix the election laws and ban mail in ballots.

The insurrectionists have gained power and have inserted fraud into the election system so they can maintain it, but I think if integrity can be restored, VA has a good chance of going red again.

Trump won Virginia.

Virginia was stolen too. Lots of evidence to back this up.

Don't expect 'Coonman' Northam to lead that charge.

He alternates between that and a Klan robe.

I live in Virginia. We have a liberal governor who paints his face black (Coon Man). He won't go for it.

You've got a bit of housecleaning to do before that happens.

DC suburbanites and Governor Blackface can fuck off. Based Patriots in those areas are still welcome tho 😌
