You literally said any.

But I’m still stuck on why. What is the point in getting yourself involved in something that doesn’t affect you personally? Why is it worth getting yourself involved with someone else’s self governance?

Its almost as if I live in and am registered to vote one of the few major counties and states that are prone to reintroduce restrictions, and am not currently physically there right now.

The goal being that there would eventually be one less county and state that would consider restrictions.

From what you’ve said, you don’t live there any more.

But this doesn’t seem constructive so we can let this go.

It confused me as well, but I think the “one of them” isn’t bound to the same specific one as “any of them”.

E.g. “I’m from New York. If any of New York, Chicago, LA, Atlanta [etc.] shut down, I’ll move back to New York and [etc.]”

I guess? That’s just such a bizarre statement. But based on the rest of the thread that could indeed be the intent.
