I live in a red state.

Texas.

So I escape about 90% of the crap Democrat governors & mayors are right now inflicting on the people unfortunate enough to have voted them into office.

Forget everything you think you know about why you vote if you live in a blue state.
You've likely been taught that your vote is a VIRTUE SIGNAL, that you are TELLING PEOPLE things about yourself, how awesome and compassionate and caring you are by who you choose to vote for.

Democrats woo you by engaging in what I call "compassion psychobabble".
WHAT UTTER BULLSHIT.

Your vote isn't about YOU.

Never has been.

It's about you handing POWER over yourself to OTHER PEOPLE.

Power to bless your life or UTTERLY RUIN IT.

PERIOD.

Full stop.

End of story.
Democrats with **radical** beliefs get elected to powerful positions because they BABBLE to people & tickle their ears about how much they CARE ABOUT CHOO!

But after they have the job, and a crisis arrives, you'll see that "I care about choo!" mask drop.
That's when you get to see their REAL FACE.

And it is an ugly one.
No, they don't "care about choo!"

Not at all.

As people in NYC, Chicago, Portland, Seattle and elsewhere are belatedly having to discover THE HARD WAY.
It's a ***very*** bitter lesson blue state voters are having to learn.

If an ideological lunatic ends up running your city, there are **very real** consequences for that.

Now, I understand what happened here.

Very few people were voting or participating in the primaries.
Because so few people were engaged in the process, some truly radical and extremist people have managed to game the voting systems in these blue states and get elected to office.

Maybe you didn't realize how important it was who becomes your mayor or governor.
The thing is, you NOW understand how important it is to get involved. You can't sit on your ass and say "I don't get involved in politics, it doesn't really affect me all that much."

THEY COUNT ON STUPID PEOPLE HAVING THAT ATTITUDE.

That's **exactly** what they want.
"Why bother to vote, the system is rigged anyway."

That's called "Loserthink". That's telling yourself you are POWERLESS and so you give yourself an excuse to stay passive.

Only **active** people can save themselves & change their situation.
You only have 2 options if you live in one of these blue states & cities where ideological lunatics in charge are keeping you locked down, defunding the police & letting rioters run amok.

You can leave or you can GET INVOLVED.

Sitting on your ass is not an option.

Pick one.
And I don't mean just voting in this upcoming election. The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.

Yeah OK, a whole bunch of people weren't paying attention or were tricked into voting lunatics into office. Now what?

START FIXING IT.
It hurts to hear that Trump is not coming to save you and take away the governor or the mayor's authority and declare martial law.

He will only come in when he is ***INVITED IN***.

So these mayors & governors insist he stay away while they blame him for all of this.
And I know not everybody in these blue cities voted for these lunatic mayors.

But it is what it is. There's one one way to legally get rid of them and put somebody better into that office.

So if you're not moving? Work your ass off to find better candidates & support them.
It's hard message to hear but it's the truth. Nobody's coming to save these blue cities. The cities have to rise up and SAVE THEMSELVES.

Those of us in the red states can help, but the heavy lifting starts at home.
