My wife headed out of town so I was on kid duty.
Had to take my youngest to her gymnastics class.
Was standing there watching her like the proud papa I am when another one of the dads noticed my shirt and started up a conversation with me.
Turns out he’s a California refugee who managed to escape.
For 45 minutes he told me about his awakening experience… without any prompting.
I’ve been at this for well over a decade now, folks, and this NEVER happens. NEVER.
People now want the red pills, and we’re here to distribute them. Congratulations, y’all, on making it this far. There are effectual battles to be won, for sure, but we are winning the war!
I hope to be buying property in East Tennessee soon. I can't wait to leave the peoples republic where I live.
My Wife and I are Christians and very conservative. It's horrible living here and walking on eggshells. We constantly have to be very careful what we say in public.
Well I don't know where you're moving from, but East Tennessee has a broad range of differing demographics and we do have our liberal enclaves here (UT campus, etc.) but we somehow coexist. The extremely few "demonstrations" and protests I have seen over the years from the Left are usually poorly attended, made up of limp wristed soy boys and girls, and they then take their posters and awareness ribbons and go home. No riots here, we don't stand for that stuff.
I can pretty much say what I think without causing a disturbance. I play music with some liberal acquaintances, but they know where I stand on issues; it isn't a problem.
Another example: Probably caused by some transient homeless person who had come from a more "tolerant" state, they set up a camp of tents, shelters, and lean-to's on a major road in west Knox county, a couple of blocks from the interstate, I-40 / 75. They were there one day and into the night (one freak even put his tent right on the sidewalk up to the curb!!). The police moved in and by the next day THEY WERE GONE.... just plain gone. And by the next day all the debris and clutter they left was gone too. We simply don't tolerate LA or Portland type of homeless camps here.
There is a strong Christian community here and several good non-woke churches, both large and small. Good luck to you.
We're thinking of the Johnson City area because of the VA hospital there. I'm a retired veteran. I have an old friend from 4th grade (more like a brother, also a veteran) who lives in South Carolina. He vacations often in Tennessee. We want to build our retirement homes next to each other. He has a realtor working on properties for us.
As far as homeless go, all you need to do is tell them drugs are legal in Oregon, and welfare benefits for drug addicts are plentiful. Buy them a bus ticket to Portland and you're rid of them.
Heh! Well so far, just plain old good police work keeps them at bay.
Good luck, I think you'll find the Johnson City area quite nice....gentle rolling hills, lots of farmland. I went to the VA hospital many years ago (also a veteran) and they served me well.
You WILL NOT have that problem in East OR West Tennessee. Maybe around some of the commy enclaves in Nashville and Memphis but 99% of the state are your people. Kentucky is the same.
I forgot to thank you Fren. We will miss the scenic beauty of the only State both of us have lived in. It literally is becoming Soddom and Gemorrah here. It is no longer a place for Christians to live. We hope to make great new friendships with like minded people soon.
You will be shocked at the culture change. People open doors, and hold doors open for each other when your ‘out and about’. I probably say ‘hello’ or at least give a friendly smile to complete strangers 10-15 times a day. We wave to each other as we pass on the road in my neighborhood … everyone, whether you know them or not. Folks stop and help if you get a flat tire. Every 3d home has a US flag flying. Thats pretty much 95% of the southern red states.
I actually won't be shocked. That was what my little hometown was like prior to 1990. Vote by mail destroyed this state. I'm looking forward to going "home" again.
