From the right: Fleeing Blue America

“America is sorting itself out by class and kind, back to blood and political pedigree,” contends Gilbert T. Sewall at Spectator World. “The demographic trend favors the so-called red states” and their “metro nodes.” “Austin, Reno, and Nashville beckon.” Big-city dwellers “white and nonwhite” are fleeing thanks to “fatigue with misgovernment, ill-spent government largesse and racial disorder.” They seek “uncrowded real estate” and “courts, authorities, teachers and stable neighbors whom they can trust,” not “power-juiced officials” who order “lockdowns and masks.” Sure, “many coveted jobs and glam professions will remain in the marquee coastal cities for now, but metro cores’ commercial supremacy is simply fading.” The flight “from dysfunctional America shows no signs of slowing.”
