The countryside is nice albeit quaint. But if I lived in that state, I'd definitely make sure to live upstate, as far away from the concrete Sodom as possible.

I live upstate, albeit in a very cucked town one hour outside the city. Lots of transplants, I would know, my parents moved out of the city when I was four.

Best decision they could make, ever. Otherwise possibility is high you might have ended up belonging to the purple haired brigade now.

I used to be in the purple haired brigade until after high school. I then found stuff online that made me connect the dots, and here I am. I grew up in a very, very liberal household in a very liberal college town. If the Internet did not exist I do not even think I'd be the same person that I am today.

Anywhere in the world as a matter of fact. With the only exception of southern Europe and Argentina maybe.

So true... so true. Tried to take a week off over the summer (only lasted 4 days). Came back to a shit show.

I visited New York once and the whole place just felt soulless. Like it was just one big store front. No one seemed happy, everyone was just trying to hurry to get out and it was a miserable place that existed only to sell you as many things as it could

I used to romanticize the US when I was a kid but now, everytime I visit I feel more disgusted. As I grow older I also contemplate the idea of having kids someday and I'm sure if they grew up in the States there are 80% chances they would develop some mental disorder.

After careful observation it can be depending on the person, and 2nd if that person has pre-determined condition with their system that they didn't know, have cancer, diabetes or they're obese, face the biggest risk.. But for a young healthy adult.. Nope.
