We are all, regardless of the direction of our political leaning, suspended in our beliefs by the community we are part of.
If you don’t believe me, I encourage you to try walking down Main Street in small town America with a BLM flag. It’ll be received about as well as parading a Trump 2024 flag around a coastal city.
- Swizec 4y agoI visited a small town recently - Ithaca. As someone from San Francisco I was shocked by the amount of LGBTQ and BLM imagery. Feels like everyone in SF kinda takes it as the default position, no need to show off.

- pempem 4y agoAh Ithaca is so tremendously close to my heart. It is also a liberal college town with all of the externalization that can invoke. You only need to head to Oswego, or Genesee county generally to find a lot of upstate NY conservatism, often similarly openly shared.
