No where in Europe is “remote.”

Come to the South West US where you can drive 100 miles in any direction and barely see another human.

Or maybe don’t go there and then complain about the obvious shortfalls of the place. The rural exodus happened for a reason.

The rural exodus happened for many reasons, none of which have to do with the availability of high-speed internet. People are born where they are born, and often live there too. Sometimes that place is densely populated and replete with amenities, such as the Alps, sometimes it’s not. You don’t have to be an uneducated dick.

"Haha stupid poor people. Why don’t you just move somewhere else? Have you tried not being poor? Have you tried not being born in a impoverished remote or rural area? Did you even try to upgrade your parent’s income bracket, or trade-in for better parents?”

Or maybe you meant, “Why don’t you just abandon your grandparents who live at, or across the border? I’m sure the Mexican or American governments will pick up the slack when you move away. I’m sure familial cultural importance and dynamics are the same in Switzerland as they are around the Mexican border”.

It’s not a shortfall thanks to Starlink. Are you following along?
