    I get you but then you’d never go anywhere, I’ve recently come back from the states and it was a great trip - all the roads near where I was staying were lined with beautiful trees, houses had great front gardens many growing vegetables, there were lots of vegan and vegetarian restaurants, endless pride flags well into July, lots of friendly cultural events, I felt welcome whenever I went and mixed with a diverse community in various settings. Weed is legal and sold at very reasonable prices… It was a lot more progressive and interesting than most places in my own European country or others I’ve visited, certainly on par with even the cool sections of Berlin, Barcelona, Bristol. It would be crazy missing out on visiting Baltimore just because you heard there are some especially shitty racists in the country it’s part of.
