I feel the same way (although I'm not in the Berkshires). In the last few years I've become reasonably confident that I will never leave the immediate area. It's no longer just ideological differences. I can get along with people just fine who have different views on things like taxes.

It's that hate, racism, violence, misogyny and ignorance are driving policy decisions. It's a safety issue in addition to basic quality of life.

A well known fundy preacher said don't leave California despite how liberal it is because the rest of America will be like Cali in 20 years anyway,so why bother.If Iowa becomes as liberal as MA it will be worse than here ,so why leave here.
