    Probably true, but also could be that they are from California. Idahoans hate Californians for weird reasons.

        It is mostly because Californians leave California because of the realities of living in California and move to a state that isn’t like California and then try to make it like California instead of moving to a state that is like California already.

        The lack of assimilation of local culture doesn’t help either. Don’t be a Californian-Californian in a conservative state and nobody will care after you get past the initial hurdle of being assocoated with the stereotypical Californian, and the proper enunciation, also every time you say soda instead of pop, cola, or coke.

        I’m sure it has nothing to do with most of them acting like they’re smarter than everyone else because of having lived in a particular state

        Lived in a red state most of my life. I dream of that Golden State, and also other places around the globe.

      Idaho is one of the most racist states in America, if you Google ‘‘move to a state with no black people’’ Idaho has got you covered. Huge organized white power hate groups there too. My family is from Idaho, man. Trust me. It’s not casually racist. They are actively salivating for the race war.

        I was getting headhunted for a job in Coeur d’Alene. It’s a beautiful place. I could afford a nice house there near the lake. I could bike to work (given adequate gear for winter)… We have friends in Montana we could actually see.

        I know if I move out of CA it will be very hard to come back. The politics there seem pretty backwards. I couldn’t see living there. What you say really seals the deal.

          It really looks bad now that they are literally dealing with brain drain after Roe v Wade got over turned. Not a single medical postgrad will go there and almost everyone with a specialty related to birth has left. And they’re running out of qualified teachers for k-12.
