    When you can’t afford housing or groceries these things you are concerned about are on the back burner

          Ah, whataboutism, a classic way to avoid confronting your own privilege.

            All I am trying to say is that it is definitely appealing that I can afford a roof over my head there lol. You have got to be shitting me if you think on the street in Canada is better

            You sound like someone who has all their human needs covered and ran out of things to complain about

              It may very well be better if you’re queer, yes. You’re protected by a human rights charter for being queer in Canada. In Idaho… well, read the article.

                  That’s simply not true. There are people who live on the street for years.

                    Here you will likely freeze to death

                    Would live in a red state if push come to shove, just hole up in your house and work from home, live a solitary life

                    Idaho also has incredible nature you can escape to

                    Seriously if anyone in Idaho here wants to come try living in BC I’ll trade because it’s getting really hard to survive here
