So appalled and sickened by my home state becoming the Nazi safe home. Idaho has always had the worst of so many categories…education, healthcare, racism and controverted conservatism. But I was blithely ignorant of the depths of hatred EVEN while working among the republicans in local governments. My gawd, how could I have been so blinded by the reality? I had always been a Blue girl in a red state but to me it was just a bumper sticker platitude. The irony is I grew up in the Cecil Andrus era and was lulled into a false sense of democratic values and beliefs. Fuck.

Wonder how many of your Idaho neighbors had fathers& grandfathers and

uncles fight in WWII? against a demagogue facist?

Idaho has so much natural beauty, and yet they support a guy who would turn the state (and every state) into an industrial hellscape.

I was such an idealistic person. That’s been stripped away and it’s depressing as shit.

You still have ideals but now you’re a realist as well 🙂🤨
