The best decision I have made in my life was to move/escape/flee from radical South Florida to Seattle. I feel protected by a progressive government with a highly educated population that respect science/the truth and has compassion for others and the bonus of natural beauty!

I moved to Seattle area over 5 years ago just prior to the outbreak of COVID. South Florida has been controlled by Republicans for a couple decades but made more radical via the emergence of Trumpism which swept Florida even in the strong democratic cities in south Florida.

A very weak Democratic party along with nonsensical anti-working class Republican legislation with zero tolerance for the most vulnerable in society was the overt trend. Every Republican wanted to impress Trump on how evil and uncompassionate they could get. Rising prices/skyrocketing property insurance and a State flooding via Climate Change became very problematic. The Governor actually outlawed the use of the words “climate change” in any legislation or government correspondence.

I was trapped in political and economic hell. The red flags of danger and risk were waving at hurricane levels. I had to move/escape. Moving to Seattle was like a Russian moving to Ukraine or Poland to escape government extremism. Now I am in progressive nirvana. Democrats have complete and moral control of government, an outstanding natural environment of mountains and forests and parks and very close to Canada in case things get really crazy …. I can escape to Canada!

Washington State resident should feel very secure in a very dangerous political environment that exists throughout America. This has to be the most dangerous time for America since 1776. Every essential institution is under attack and under control of the rich. A radical coup is well underway since the inauguration of tyrant Trump. While I feel safe in Seattle/Washington State, I fear for America and Democracy! Its time America who respects the truth and democracy and moral actions must be more aggressive/active in fighting for our country. Appease Trump/Republican Fascist Party at your peril. Democracy is not free nor easy. We have at the most 90 days to stop the destruction of America. The tipping point is so near! I am so glad to be in the beautify Pacific Northwest and you should too!
