"I'm a Texan. I love Texas. I'm raising my children here. I was raised here. I've built my academic career, my professional career here. You know, I plan to stay. And so I want to be able to get access to the medical care that I need, and my daughter to have it as well," Cox said.
Yeah I don't think you are learning anything out of this. Stay in a state that does not care about you. Like a physical abusive relationship.
I don't really agree with the abusive relationship analogy. Things only change if there are people there who want it to change. While I understand and sympathise with the desire to leave, I have the utmost respect for those who choose to stay and try to make/ be the change needed.
The only solution in an abusive relationship is to leave.
Which is why I don't agree with the analogy. Because that is not the solution when it comes to political ideologies.
History is full of terrible ideologies. Things like women's right to vote, and segregation. If people who disagreed and who had the means to leave all did, these likely would still be laws in the US.
