A Boring Dystopia

Apparently, Utah can be added to this. Though they vote overwhelmingly Republican they are surprisingly supportive of lgbtq rights , at least according to a video I saw yesterday.

I think it was called Why is Utah Weird? I think Bobbybroccoli did it.

Anyone from Utah with a different experience, please correct me so I don't spread any more disinformation.

Edit: Just read down about 30 comments and apparently I was gaslit by a YouTube video. Whoduhthunk?

Can somebody give me a better explanation of how NH keeps ending up red on these maps? As a trans person who's lived in both NH and VT for very large parts of my life, I've found that they're really, really similar when it comes to trans rights. Hell, NH is one of the few states to cover laser hair removal and electrolysis for facial hair under medicaid for trans people. Vermont doesn't even cover that and has repeatedly shot down any attempts to add it.
Also even though both states cover breast augmentation for trans people, Vermont refuses to cover it for me because I have a deformity and require a slightly different procedure which they go out of their way to explicitly exclude, whereas in NH that procedure is explicitly also covered.

I'm assuming there's something deeper and more sinister going on in NH if it's red even despite that. I wouldn't doubt it tbh. I can't move back there because they intentionally illegally shut off people's disability benefits hoping they just won't bother to appeal the decision, so I'm not blind to how awful the state can be.

This is total bullshit, I live in the state not pictured and I know tons of trans people who are openly accepted by the community

I live in a dark blue state, in-laws in a light blue state, the rest of my family in a state not pictured. I haven’t seen them in probably half a decade, and then only for a funeral. I have niece/nephews that only know me and my husband as the people that ship them gifts in the mail.
