I can guarantee you that Oregon is absolutely not looking at Idaho.
Idaho chose to be antivax, then flooded Oregon/Washington hospitals for treatment.
Idaho chose to restrict women’s health services, then medical staff ran off to work in Oregon/Washington.
While OR/WA chose to increase hourly pay, Idaho chose against it.
The average Idaho citizen is absolutely worse off than their neighbor.
You must live in western Oregon then, because practically the entire eastern half of Oregon counties have approved ballot measures to secede from the state and join Idaho.
It shows how much people are fueled by culture war nonsense in rural Oregon. I lived in one of the counties that voted to join Idaho and I never heard a single reason from anybody that was reasonable. It was all based on far right talking points about transing the kids or taking the guns. Meanwhile stuff like minimum wage that would actually affect everyone was just ignored.
When people vote for something I agree with = well informed, responsible, mature adults making the right choice.
When people vote for something I disagree with = braindead, deluded, immature savages falling victim to propaganda.
You don’t have to be stupid to fall victim to propaganda. It happens to literally everyone, every single living human being, in the modern age. We are being assaulted from all sides at all times with conflicting information.
Yes but that doesn’t mean everyone who votes a certain way is a victim of propaganda. Believe it or not, it’s actually possible to take in the arguments from both sides and then make up your mind independently of what those around you think.
Are you saying you agree with the antivax, anti-womens rights, anti-lgbtq, anti-working class views?
I know a loaded question when I see one, and this one’s more loaded than a college freshman at a fraternity party.
But it’s all the reasons that rural Oregon wants to join Idaho?
Edit: Just read their website, it lists all those reasons, painful as it is to read besides: https://www.greateridaho.org/vote/
Seeing as though most of eastern Oregon is predominantly agricultural, I don’t see how anti-working class fits in the picture.
The remainder are just weaponized political buzzwords designed to inspire people to hatred. One could just as well say pro-liberty, pro-life, and pro-family.
Yea idk, when I disagree with something it’s usually because I’ve given it the chance to convince me and it failed. And if I agree with something it’s because I’ve taken the time to understand it. It would be a bit weird to not feel like things I agree with are the right, or better, direction and that the things I disagree with are somehow broken in their reasoning.
If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again?
I’m struggling to understand, are you suggesting you just keep thinking about it until you get a specific belief about it? How does that sound good?
One day you’ll understand. Hopefully not too late.
Eastern WA too. The conservatives want nothing to do with the west side.
I was hoping someone would mention it because I happen to have the perfect meme for this.
🤣
Oregon/Washington getting all the educated medical personnel sounds like a great deal for them
It is and I’m glad to be here right now.
Could you explain that to the eastern half of Oregon that unironically suggested switching to become part of Idaho about a year ago?
Why does she have a hedgehog
That’s a good question. And why is he such a pervert? The hedgehog, I mean.
The hedgehog isn’t a pervert, everyone knows that the hedgehog can never be buggered at all
Be that as it may, it actually turns out the hedgehog was always there…

Thanks for explaining the reference. I had not heard this song before.

Why don’t you have a hedgehog?
Fair point
Nevada, 'nuff said.
I thought she was holding a hedgehog for a second
She is not?
She is not
You’re not the first, but upon closer inspection I think it might be some sort of fur accessory.
Yea I think it’s a purse or a jacket
Certainly far more likely than a hedgehog.
More like I-da-hoe
I know you are!
Can someone explain the shape of the state lines of Idaho ?
Is it because of a geographic feature? (The squiggly side)
Not entirely sure but I think it follows along a mountain range, most likely the watershed line.
EDIT: looks like that’s correct and it follow the Bitterroot Range. Here’s a link with more info and some history: https://mtbeyond.com/history/how-montana-got-its-shape/
According to this site, it’s because of “greed, power, politics, and discontent.”
I’m my United States? Unbelievable.

Fun Fact: Montana and Wyoming used to be part of Idaho.
Yes, back when it was still a territory and not a state.
Is this a plot to one of the latest PornHub not my sister, but step brother productions? If it was further south a arguement could be made not my step, but full brother…
Only small parts of it. Maybe you’re thinking of Washington and Oregon?
A as non English native I can’t see Wyoming without pronouncing “mhamm mhaam” in my head… Holy fuck this is stupid.
She shouldn’t be calling herself a ho though.
Yeah but she’s not a ho, she da ho!
What do you suggest instead, Idaescort perhaps? Idacourtesan? Idaprostitute? Idaworkinggirl?
Is this something I’m too unamerican to understand?
Not really. If you look closely enough at the shapes and positions of these states on the map, you should be able to figure it out.
