Before bumfuck nowheres everywhere started demanding control over women’s bodies, I’d have asked why not? If you can remote work to a good paying job while living like a king in famously poorer red states, that makes sense to me. Enough people do that, we might just make it so “rural” doesn’t have to mean “uneducated hateful fox news watching mouthbreathers”
The people leaving California, for example, are Conservatives. They were going to Texas, but now they see Florida as their white theofascist utopia, so maybe we’ll finally see a purple Texas (recent voting trends in Texas reflect the influx of Conservatives when you divide recent Texas residents vs. well-established Texans of 5-10+ years).
Depends how you look at the numbers. While there’s definitely some positive increase in the in red states with a modest sub-1% growth rate, they saw a 2% growth rate previously. So on its face it looks like a positive increase but it’s still a negative trend with a -50% reduction of the base line
Conversely, blue states were seeing a -0.5% growth rate but have tightened that to -0.05% so that’s a 10x increase over baseline while still seeing a population decline

Opinion pieces, the true stamp of approval.

To give them some minor form of credit, they probably don’t know what opinion pieces are and think it’s legit news.
You mean you don’t trust stateofunion.org? How dare you!
It gets even better when you look at the prominent source of the article links to another blog that also doesn’t list sources.

If you click on the source THERE, it just links back to itself.
@[email protected] how does it feel to eat propaganda and fake news like that?
Says “left-leaning” proceeds to list corporate puff pieces. 😂 You people are absolutely delusional
I’ve taken to laughing right in the face of anyone IRL who starts a sentence like “even the liberal MSNBC…”
The absolutely ridiculous notion that our corporate media is liberal is something that needs to be openly mocked.

Poe?
I am literally in the process of fleeing a red state. Am I fake news?
Good. Hopefully they’ll turn those red states blue.
