Political Trash Moving Here & Complaining.

Colorado Springs is a great place, I've lived there the past 11 years and have lived in Colorado my entire life. The problem I am seeing with a lot of these posts are that they're from people who move here from out of state, assuming Colorado Springs will be some haven for their alt-right philosophies and are disappointed to find we're just like any other city. A mix of races, ideologies, and a growing city that brings with it a rise in cost of living.
If you're wanting to move here because you think moving simply due to your political views is a smart idea; then please stay out of Colorado Springs. Don't trash it up, or talk trash, because you WASTED your money to move to somewhere based solely on your political views.
Yeah, things are getting kinda costly; but we're still cheaper than Denver. And that happens with a booming population. You can't expect the second largest city in the state to have the cheapest rent around. That's just not how it works.
No, I am not wealthy; I bust my ass at a retail job to make end's meet.
So if I can do that with my meager salary, there is no excuse - especially for someone moving from out of state. with the money to do so, to come here and complain about our prices nor our political stance. Move back if you're truly unhappy.
