I comment a lot on stories having to do with state governments and legislation or regions of the country. It got me wondering how many people I’m accidentally disparaging when I don’t mean everyone in said state or region is terrible. So… Please be as specific or obtuse as your privacy filter requires. I’ll start:
I’m in the Bay Area, specifically Oakland. Despite Bay Area hate from some posters, I think it’s great. How about you?
Also what’s your date of birth and mother’s maiden name?
And the name of my first pet and my elementary school for good measure.
Spot, and Jefferson Davis Elementary. Only limits that to half hr country, though I kid of course.
April 1st, 1969. Crapper. Why do you ask?
Hey everyone, make sure you aren’t doxxing yourself. Comments in the Fediverse can be very hard to delete.
Good reminder. I am a proud Oaklander and won’t hide it, so I’ll just say again. Oakland!
Texas.
It’s okay. I don’t blame people for hating our legislature, just try to remember that not all Texans are shitty people.
Howdy neighbour. The same goes for me and many people I know in the Bayou State. The legislature especially recently makes me want to barf.
A suburb north of Denver.
You are going to find a metric fuck-ton of political diversity in Colorado. While it somewhat follows a fairly standard pattern of cities being blue and the countryside being red, it gets much more complicated than that here. (The elevation and mass quantities of craft beer does strange things to a human after a time.)
Yeah, Colorado (along with the New England states) is one of few places in the US where rural does not necessarily mean red.
Nice try NSA

In a house.
Switzerland
So it’s true. The USA has colonized the rest of the planet. Howdy neighbor!
San Diego
Hi neighbor. I’m in Temecula.
There are dozens of us!!!1
San Antonio, Texas. Disparage away. Any chance of change happening is incredibly slim. My city only had about 14.81% turnout during our last primary election.
This is by design. Voter fatigue is very real.
That’s depressing. Cheers.
Given the time you posted this, you’re going to get biased replies
Inevitable.🤷♂️Literally asking US Lemmies, I somehow missed that.
Not really? Most people in the US are awake at the same time. Posting at 2am EST will get you biased results
Posting at a time where most Europeans are awake and most Americans are asleep will also get you biased results. The Earth is round. Like I said, it’s inevitable. Or am I misunderstanding you somehow?
Read the question. It’s asking Americans for their information at a time when half of Americans were asleep.
Ah yes.
DFW area of Texas. There’s a lot that’s good here, but the number of people who combine various levels of being small-minded and short-sighted are indeed very frustrating.
And they all have cars that contribute to our THUNDERDOME traffic situation these days. I legit don’t even like driving anywhere in the metroplex these days out of safety concerns.
Methdesto, CA
Oakland makes this city look like Carmel by the Sea. 🤣
I’ve heard folks call it HOdesto lol
Bruh I’m in Hemet, CA. All desert and tumbleweeds but hey at least I can afford to live here
Northern mid-west, around Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin
new mexico!
Santa Cruz, CA. Hi neighbor!
One of my favorite small cities. Would live there if I could, but it’s unfortunately too expensive.
Yeah, way too expensive for us as well so we’re actually planning on moving to the other side of the bay. We are not renting, thankfully, but we’re pretty squeezed and moving elsewhere in Santa Cruz requires paying ridiculous amounts of money I cannot justify.
