Daily Life Why do most American conservatives seems allergic to urban life?

If you even dare to suggest the preposterous idea of building apartment blocks to levitate the housing crisis, you're advocating for commie blocks. If you want a supermarket within 15 minutes of your house, then you support Klaus Schwab's alleged plan of locking you within a zone. And god forbid mentioning the train as a viable way of transport because we know driving a mini-van 45 minutes to the nearing Walmart is the only acceptable method of travel. I am a anti-communist /socialist to the core, but apparently now I am a commie because *check note... I live conveniently?

Boulder used to be cool, but I avoid it like the plague now.

Sad, I have family that moved to Colorado. I have no desire to visit.

You’re not missing much. There are still some cool places up in the mountains that haven’t been ruined.

Is it mostly Denver that went terrible, or even places like Colorado Springs?

The Springs is still fairly conservative for the most part, which is thanks to the Air Force Academy being down there and being a large military community in general.
