How does that compare to the list of states where your rights are least likely to be taken away by fundamentalist Christian nationalists?

Yeah, sometimes I longingly look at the price of real estate in my hometown in Ohio.

Then I remember the political signs my mom's neighbors have in front of their homes, and I save up a little more to hopefully move her out here someday too.

I’m sorry that your constitutional rights to buy a 30 mag or infect others with covid were trampled on.

I'm sorry that you have a misguided feeling that you're so far above the common resident as to dictate someone else's way of life.

If by dictate you mean establish civilized norms with science based public policy then sure.

Our constitution(s) empower our government to do certain things for us.

If you want to go back to the 1700s, please turn off your internet, electricity, use only muzzleloaders, eschew all antibiotics and move somewhere where your actions don’t impact anyone else’s.

Then sure do whatever you want.

We need a little less freedom and a little more liberty

I don’t believe I ever said, establish civilized norms with science based public policy. I said mandate another citizens way of life just because you don’t agree with it. But that’s very lofty of you.
