I have never respected the “heart and soul of America rural voters” because they’ve literally always been stupid and racist. And people will disagree with me, but it’s very often not the people living in these shitholes. It’s like noble savage shit.

It’s also really annoying how they try to pass themselves off as “real America.” Most Americans live in cities and suburbs! That’s been true for decades!

Oh certainly *more* stupid racists live in cities. But I’m talking about the people who identify with being Americas “heart and soul”, people who eat up the “you’re the real America” shit. Not just every person who lives rurally. That’d implicate wildlife biologists and shit.

That’s just a per capita thing tho. More of every type of person lives in cities unless that type is “person who lives outside of a city”

It’s coming from a place of love in truth, but living around the type of people who consider themselves Americas heart and soul, they need a fucking reality check. Theyre mostly very unpleasant and cruel people.

If you knew my lore you’d know I don’t really have a hometown, and the one I’d first think of isn’t rural. However my experience living in rural communities both exposed me to a lot of passively fucked up shit, and yeah I mean I’ve had people throw bricks at me for being gay. That shit happens.

And frankly I dont know a single person in my rural town who is left leaning and doesn’t acknowledge this. The idea that people in these areas are not dogshit is a myth from the outside.

The left always has. The right only understands it for crime statistics but never COVID deaths or greenhouse gas emissions. It’s quite interesting

Lmao, remember those maps where rightoids would point to the red swath in the middle of the country and go “look we were supposed to win, look there’s so much more red”
