brognak@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week ago…the fuck are you on about? Don’t lump the Northeast in with the South. Massachusetts is easily the most liberal state in the country, and it’s not even really close and second place is Hawaii so still not West Coast.
If you want peer pressure from GOP funding Silicon Valley NIMBYs and weirdly conservative cannabis farmers go West. If you want a culture that prides itself on cutting you off in traffic while sipping a large extra extra around the Newport eternally stuck to your lower lip but at the same militantly defending your civil rights and social systems, come to New England. Or don’t, we barely have snow anymore. I’ll give that to the American West, better ski mountains.

Ya’know, it is odd now that you mention it. Out here in oregon we have a lot more “gray” days then out east. Yet I don’t see as many people drinking coffee in the care compared to out east. You would think we would need it more.
Also odd, there is a clear difference in how traditional east coast companies are (and are allowed to be). Tech is my area, and it is very noticeable. Management hierarchies are much more rigid. Clothing/appearance expectations. Still a lot of golf played on company time. Diversity… I think the people are often liberal, but they don’t seem to take much of that to the office. Oh, and more religion in the east than the west. Y’all still have blue laws in many states.
