Long Island is truly awful. Every time people say New York is so liberal I'm like no, NEW YORK CITY is liberal. New York State is a red trash bag in most places. I was so glad to get out of there.
Only certain parts of NYC is liberal too. Staten Island is trash as we all know, but there are pockets of Brooklyn and Queens that are conservative. Also NYPD bootlickers.
This. The Dominicans in Astoria and the Jewish, Russian and Italian communities in Brooklyn are known to be major Trumpers. And then you have the cops and their families in Staten and LI.
THIIIIIISSSS. I mean I understand why it has a liberal reputation but honestly the people I encounter there are really 50/50. From the conservative traditional family types to liberal elites that step on the poor it really is a mixed up fantasy land.
I've noticed that too. People born and raised in LI don't want to leave. A woman I knew was like that and I was SHOCKED when I found out she moved to Brooklyn.
Yep, I went to a major state university in Long Island that is known for its low tuition for NY residents so it was popular among Long Islanders. Some people left, but quite a few stayed and fall into one of those two categories.
No I know, I suppose I just mean that NY is blue strictly bc of NYC. South Brooklyn is really red. But I'm not surprised. My BF lives there and whenever I was there, a lot of Trump signs and Blue Lives Matter
LOL no lies detected. I lived on the North Shore for a while years ago for college and being there as an Arab right after 9/11 was really fucking stressful. The town was super red and conservative.
I live north of NYC and fortunately my town is pretty damn liberal. But I dated a guy who lived east of Syracuse in a really small town, and hooooly shit I have to laugh when people talk about how liberal NY is.
I remember going up there with him to visit family before Obama was first elected, and I saw more than one house with a giant "LYNCH HIM" sign in their front yard. It was fucking disgusting.
