Which county?

Lol that was a good article. I appreciate the nonwhites whining about "identity politics". I'll get back to that later.

I was a little confused because I wasn't sure what significant county flipped, and Loudoun didn't. The numbers were a lot closer than I think I have ever seen, however. It is true that Youngkin won the suburbs fairly substantially, most of the democrat voters really did come from the urban centers, with NoVA being an expected stronghold. Yeah, the economy and jobs are problems, but it is important to understand Youngkin, for his faults, largely ran on social issues, and that's why leftoids are pissed off. He attacked CRT, the lack of parental oversight in public schools, and covid mandates. This resonated with suburban Virginia across the state, and it did actually flip suburban counties that went blue in 2020. This was definitely a suburban revolution, which I think is what right wing politics in America needs. Just to clarify, I'm not simping for Youngkin, but the turnout in places like Loudoun or Prince William, the latter being only 40% white, is remarkable. These aren't just ideological Democrats. Northern VA is the rats nest. They are the federal workers and DC commuters. It's where the most important people who dictate what happens in this country live. VA elections are not just about politics, for a lot of people here the left vs right is fundamentally loyalty vs revolution. And right now, a solid amount of our white people are disloyal.

It was surprising to me in the past when Obama and recently Biden won Virgina. To me when I think of Virginia I think of "the south" maybe wrongly. Of course dems usually win cities and repubs win suburbs and rural areas. When suburbs go for a dem like before it is surprising to me, I'm thinking why are you voting against your best interests? Due to being tricked? Because the repub running is not that good?Youngkin was just good enough I guess, and the dem was a previous governor that had done a bad job and gotten the boot. Sometimes I think dems lose on purpose too, due to bribes.

It's not really surprising. Virginia has been simultaneously a dumping ground for immigrants and an attraction for establishment government workers. It's been this way for multiple generations.

As for the suburban effect, pardon my classicism, but there is a real bourgeois attitude among suburbanites where they can advocate for policies and hold positions that are detrimental to the country without feeling the effects. This is a real issue in Virginia where rich suburbs coexist with some of the worst slums through heavy policing and segregation (Arlington and Alexandria in particular). They never have to see something that is less than a mile away from them because they live in their own bubbles and are immune to the consequences of their actions. That's why this CRT matter blew up the way they did, suburbanites got as angry as we usually are about the state of things because they actually caught a glimpse of how shitty this country is.

Yes I go back to how taibbi said they got "red pilled". Meaning they were blue pilled before but got a taste of reality. And how it can be detrimental if things like CRT are allowed.

Without additional action this will just be a flash in the pan. They are trying to defuse the situation by offering useless concessions to make suburban Virginia subservient again. And honestly, they are some of the most weak-minded and soy people in the country. They are angry, but most just want the government to give them a reason to be loyal again. As I said, if Am1sters weren't busying themselves with stupid shit we would have momentum to make something out of this. That said, the government isn't going to stop being anti-white, and if this phenomenon continues in more elections around the country, I think we are seeing an actual white wave, which is whitepilling if only because it's about time whites started uniting.

a suburban person probably doesn't think about these issues too deeply, most of them, just goes out to vote every few years or so. They voted for a weak repub, will he actually get CRT out of schools, or get trannies out of bathrooms, probably not. So then what happens, they get mad at him, he loses approval, they don't vote, a dem wins next time.
