An actual quote I saw today posted on Twitter: “Florida is a conservative Christian state, and they voted against murdering unborn babies. The democratic process is complete. They can leave if they want to do that.” There’s a lot to unpack there. I also got into an argument with the guy who posted it, who claimed somehow that it’s not ok for Federal government to regulate Women, but if states wants to do it then it’s ok, and they should just leave to another state then. like… wow. America is a strange place
Hi am Floridan. Yes I want to leave but can’t because i either have to go to uni in Florida, or be in debt.
Not to pressure you to leave if it’s not feasible for you (I’ve so been there), but in case you haven’t heard of it: the Academic Common Market program, run by the Southern Regional Education Board, may be an avenue to get out of Florida while staying in college.
Hang in there.
Pretty neat that exists for people who want to study something niche.
There are other programs for other regions too! I wish I’d known about it when I was in college.
