West coast holding the line.

Is this because Florida is the state experiment for project 2025? They're enacting state versions of the federal EO/laws.

From a presentation standpoint, I am not getting a lot of information from the sizes of the circles. The size scale is helpful when you're trying to display some continuous features where relative comparisons are meaningful. In this case, it's really hard to pause the meanings, especially in FL, where the whole thing is just red.

WTF, Wisconsin?! We were proud to welcome among the highest numbers of people from Laos, and our agriculture depends on immigrants to function. This state is so divided against itself.

It’s so ironic that South Florida always votes red. The people at highest risk of deportation are the biggest Trump simps. They literally voted for this. And their reason they are so hardcore republican is always “in my country we know what dictators do.”

Everywhere has bad history. The point is not to repeat it.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 12 minutes ago

True but PNW has let's say a "culture" that is rooted in that law esp more rural areas

I am sickened by the amount of United States citizens living with the luxury of due process revelling in the kidnap and persecution of others

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 hours ago

It’s not a luxury, it’s your right.

if one person doesn't have due process, no one does

Gotta throw NH in there too. Goddamn fucking free stater libertarians fucked that state

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

It’s the only one without legal weed too. Fucking stupid state politicians.

They do have a medical program. They're also far from the only state that hasn't legalized recreational cannabis, though I agree they are an anomaly in New England.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

The only possible reason I can think of is the NH govt wants to wait until it's federally legal so they can control the market like they do with liquor stores. But yeah, it's embarrassing for all the shared borders to lead to legal weed while NH isn't.

As a native Floridian this breaks my heart. In my own view immigrants have an even greater claim to being American than I do They chose us, this nation created of immigrants. My family may have been here since the late 1600s, but I'm still only American by accident of birth.

There's a reason I now live on the opposite corner of the continent.

Dear fucking god, Florida.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 25 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's infected. We gotta put it down.

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 2 points 2 hours ago

It's the canary in the cole mine. It's already down. Now let's shuffle the rest of US out of this regime so we don't all go down....

I wonder what those two dots near the reservations in MN are doing.

[–] Trimatrix@lemmy.world 22 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

whats up with Florida? I can understand South Texas and their uptick. But FLORIDA? Am I missing something?

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 39 points 17 hours ago

DeSantis has spent the past decade radicalizing Florida. He hasn't stopped, we just can't hear it over the noise from Trump.

I'll also point out that both Florida and Texas were increasingly blue. The increasing radicalization of both states is a deliberate effort to prevent national Democratic party power in the future, a test case for things that they want to do nationally, and provides a power base from which they can try to leverage that power to affect everyone in the country.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 17 points 18 hours ago

DeSantis playing along with Trump, what else?

[–] faltryka@lemmy.world 7 points 17 hours ago

If we indiscriminately deport brown people then we can ensure the state stays red.

The border doesn't seem to have that much of a problem. Funny.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 7 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

New Mexico doesn't seem to be interested. I wonder why.

[–] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Lujan-Grisham would be my bet. She told the drillers and loggers to fuck of, as well.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 2 points 3 hours ago

She's a huge part of the why. Agreed.
