How did Colorado become so stupidly liberal?

Back in my late teens I had an extended stay in Colorado and I felt it was no different than when I lived in southern Mississippi. Folk were friendly and welcoming and quite rural and lots of traditional values and conservative. How on earth did it become such a landing spot for so many progressives and woke fascists?

California relocating there, mainly with Denver becoming a huge business Mecca IIRC.

The whole legalized weed thing did not help.

Was very very purple when I lived there . Then the Californication occurred. It also skews extremely young and is ripe for the mind virus.

No Photo ID to vote and mail in ballots.

No other way.

Imo it has a lot to do with the drive to legalize drugs we saw sweep the country mostly after the left moved on from getting gay marriage legalized. It’s why I was and am against legalizing weed. Appeasing any form of leftist whims without taking into account downstream consequences is usually always a bad idea full stop.

Weed.

Remember Colarodo was the first state to legalize recreational Marijuana. Within 5 years it became as blue as California

Keep this in mind when all the libertarian "you do you" bros try to sell this shite in your state. Its a trojan horse that does nothing but give your state stinky/nasty cities littered with braindead zombies wondering around, and California style voting.

Spoiled rotted rich white kids that moved there on their dad’s dime and haven’t ever worked a day in their life.

Everytime and the slippery slope remains undefeated. Libertarian bros insist the SS is just a fallacy and that Samual Adams and Patrick Henry would have wanted weed and gay marriage.

They’ve both had pretty catastrophic downstream effects even if I honestly don’t have much of a problem with either of them on their face. If you have an issue with queer theory and the troons trying to normalize themselves you logically must realize allowing gay marriage was a bad idea. In the same way if you have an issue with how many places like SF now resembles a zombie movie with drugged out freaks you must realize legalizing weed was a bad idea.

Think about the most liberal type of people in the US.

Coastal whites with post graduate degrees and money. They invaded Colorado by the millions and brought their shite politics with them.
