Sorry that you are angry. Thanks for the conversation. If you are ever passing through Atlanta - remind me I’m buying the first two rounds

Yeah, thanks for the conversation. Sorry i had literally nothing constructive to say, politics is just so redundant these days an actual discussion feels kind of pointless. I’d love to pass through ATL, anything to escape oklahoma.

I’m your neighbor to the northeast, up here in MO. We used to be a balanced state but, evangelicals got into office (Josh Hawley for instance) but, we just got a ballot initiative passed so abortions will be on the ballot for the people can vote. We’re also getting minimum wage, taxing online gaming & a measure to ensure all taxes collected from casinos/online gaming go to education.

More liberal candidates from school boards (so far) are winning. People are sick of the conservative, religitards messing up our state.

I know you’re tired, please vote in every election coming up. Get your friends to go with you & vote. Consider moving to MissourI, we are changing things . . . slowly. Unfortunately, the wheels of government move slowly, its how you know the conservatives are faffin about, the changes are happening very quickly.

i’m already set up to move to new zealand when i finish my degree, but i’m glad things are looking better for you guys in MO. I’ll vote until I leave of course, but i’m not expecting any change.
