West coaster here, born and raised. We behind-the-liners are actually infiltrators and subverters in their strongholds. It is THE HEIGHT OF COWARDICE to run from your homeland to hide in a safer area. That is literally giving up ground to your enemy. Anons from safe red states should move to blue states and start to take them over. For some reason so many are scared to do that.
That is THE PLACE TO GO if you are running from California like a bitch from the government they created. You guys push back against them if they get out of line. Understand though that many hangers-on are giving up. I see it all over my area. Land owning families packing up and leaving for Idaho/etc. Usually because they lost their businesses to Coronachan.
They are good people who were simply defeated. They will be good people who will support your values and norms.
