If you lived there you’d know it’s optics. They’re libertarian in Denver and Boulder and the rest of the state is red. There’s even sundown towns. You can smoke pot and marry your bro but you better both have beards and like fishing or else you’re getting fitted for the barbwire fence.

Wow. That is an amazing description. Yeah kind of. I never thought of that before. And Ohio DID just import a shit ton of tech companies too so it’s almost exactly like the Silicon exodus to Colorado ten years ago.

Did they? That’s strange considering how prez has let them off the leash with Ai regulation. In that case I’m curious if the data centers that are being built now will be the only ones.
