It’s become somewhat of a meme now when there is a story on crime, or other bad things happening in a city, people pipe up and say “That’s how it is in blue cities!” “This could only happen in a Democrat city!” However, I noticed they never say “… and that’s why only want to live in X” or “… that would never happen in Y”.

If living in “blue cities” are such a nightmare, where are all these Utopian “red cities” that people are apparently in favor of?

      Makes sense with horseshoe theory. Red for authoritarians no matter left or right. Red is a warning.
