[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ended up in the ballet coronavirus thread and that was a trip. I saw a few references to “DC Republican society” in there and was surprised that such a thing exists, given the transient nature of DC and politics, and that it was presented as something to aspire to. Is that a real thing? I assume the Democrats have their own counterpart? I’m not from the area, but it all seems rather silly.[/quote] Then this will surprise you too: [b]Many of us, who have families who have lived here for several generations, do not view or experience DC as transient. [/b] Some have long-standing interests in politics, and want to be involved with others who share similar interests. I’m not sure why this would seem silly — even to someone not from the area. Transients also have interests, even if their commitment to such interests is limited by their relative transience. [/quote] +1 to all of this, especially the bolded. [/quote]
