The Midwest was conservative, but mostly in the ornery ‘bah, leave me alone!!!’ kind of way that hates big gubbermint while complaining when their subsidy checks are late.
The south was mother fucking insane. It was clear the only thing holding them back from going full Christian Sharia was fear of the federal government, again while cashing every federal check they could and basically living off welfare. They were the only ‘REAL AMERICANS!!!’ according to them, and the fact that I was born here just meant that I was a really sneaky illegal coming to take their jobs they weren’t willing to work.
I’m so glad I managed to escape, but it always feels like they’re trying to follow me out of their shithole to destroy the good parts of this country.
I grew up in the Midwest, then the south.
