A new bid to place a measure on the ballot that would ask California voters to approve the state's secession from the U.S. has been cleared for signature gathering.
Are you really waiting to be spoon fed? I never said everything would be gravy. I said if I was honestly certain I was going to die by staying in my state, I’d fucking leave NOW without waiting for jack shit. Everyone is going to have their own support and ways of surviving, and that’s something to think about only AFTER I’m in a safe location. This is still going to be difficult, and you’ll still have to actually think for yourself. But at least you won’t be actively hunted anymore.
Spoon-fed? What? States are HUGE. If you don’t ALREADY have a car you own, you gotta have fare for a bus or a train. If you don’t? You have to walk, and that’s not a realistic option for most people, particularly those who live in conservative areas spanning multiple states. God forbid you live in southern Texas. Cars are expensive, and fare for transportation out of state is also pretty damn expensive, especially since these dangerous areas tend to neglect their affordable public transport options. It’s great that YOU have the money upfront to even start getting out. Not everyone has the privilege.
To be clear, I’m not arguing against getting out. I’m taking umbridge with your statement that “It costs nothing to get in your car…” etc. GETTING a car is a cost.
