But you have to understand that they actually like their problems. They don’t want that coal mine that only employees a tenth of the workers they used to to shut down, because it is their “livelihood”. They don’t want new technology to improve their life, their suffering is proof of their righteousness.
You must understand all the best and brightest left those small towns the first chance they got. They know they are the leftovers and like it that way. The ones left are bitter, ugly, and unintelligent.
They give their cows a season break between breading for their health but will get their woman pregnant every year until their uterus falls out. The cruelty is the point. They are not logical, kind, or understanding. They are hurting and want others to hurt too.
All the while ginned up on the high of their “superiority” feed to them by faux news. They are told they are the farmers, the backbone of our country. Elevated to a magical status that belays the reality that they are useless vestiges of a society that left them behind.
These people are not political, rather they have been co-opted by charlatans and liars. Propagandized to, manipulated, and twisted into the tools of the conservatives. The truth is they have no place in the future and will die off eventually.
Perhaps they know this on some level. They can sense the impending doom and like most assholes want to take everyone else down with them. So no, we don’t need to recognize them or let them be heard. There is nothing to gain because they have nothing to offer.
I lived in rural Idaho for several years during Obama’s entire term. You have no idea how many times I had to listen to people’s fantasies about hanging or shooting Obama.
My children went to school and they would come home and tell me the kids talked about murdering him all the time. The teachers even joked about it.
You have no fucking clue what you are talking about. You don’t know hate.
I don’t hate them, but I will not delude myself. I know it, I lived it. You really have no clue about the reality of the situation because you lack first hand knowledge.
You ever lived in a town where if you talked to a woman she would have a black eye the next day because her husband heard about it?

How are your assumptions and prejudices different than when Trump voters talk about cities?

And now you’re showing them by acting just like them…
Have you never heard the phrase “circle of hate”?
I don’t hate them, but I will not delude myself. I know it, I lived it. You really have no clue about the reality of the situation because you lack first hand knowledge.
