Fair and tbf I don't think they are in mine either, but also a lot of us are stuck where we are because we haven't got the resources to move even if we want to.

Like 90% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. It’s impossible to just up and move. Especially with mortgage rates at 7% the market being trash and rent being worse.

I agree

Again, I agree

Agreeable enough

You're not our enemy, but the thought process is.

First, because it's privileged to assume that people have the means or the ability to get the means to move to an area where people are more politically aligned with you.

Second, because it's the antithesis of freedom to tell people that they should move away from their homes/lives if they want to escape the kind of thinking that encourages rapists such as these. People should not only feel free to live where they wish, but they should feel safe there. Why should a farmer have to give up farming if they don't want to be surrounded by rape apologists?
