I lived just outside of Silicon Valley for a time so I knew lots of scratched liberals like that. “Fiscally conservative, socially liberal” conservatives in denial that didn’t want to be associated with the GOP because they liked to microdose and LARP as cool scenesters sex pesting around town when they weren’t code-broing for their corporate masters.
In that moment, I was just so dumbfounded as I listened to this person explain to me how, like, Nebraska should get more electoral votes than New York and pointing out to me how there was so much more red area on the map than blue, and how that oughta count for something.
I’d be more than fine with cuddle parties if actual predators like didn’t openly admit that they went to those to drug people unawares and then do SV with them while under the influence.
I basically don’t go to any of the events, just everyone I seem to meet is a neurodivergent polyamorous person of some sort. I did go to a few a couple of years ago, just wasn’t my crowd (except for the occasional new person who also went for the same reason). I tend to be very 1-1 with my partners
Can you believe I actually know someone in real life who is a sincere ‘land area should = vote proportionality’ guy?

Settler brain. Not even once.
The number of wealthy tech dudes who are guarded about their politics so they don’t get kicked out of the polycule: likely too many

Yes I’ve met lots of those people
Bit idea: land area = more electoral votes and then all of us on Hexbear move to Alaska and declare it the successor state of the CCCP.
