Enough going back and forth. Apparently s/he is in Seattle, according to his / her OP here. Bolding mine.

And this is not meant to be an indictment of general Democratic ideals but the ultra left-wing part of the party like Warren, Sanders and AOC. It seems like when the Progressives are in charge for a long time and are fairly secure in running a state or city, we see the same results: People taxed into emigration. So basic…

@DrDeth it was pretty cool that you answered.
