As someone who grew up in "rural American white culture, Christian conservative culture", you can't get away with saying half the shit they say about cities and urban areas about them. We propose solutions but those solutions are economic, not a return to default status for them. I've seen the vile, disgusting things rural people say about minorities and LGBT because outwardly I'm just another white dude. I've had grandmas scream at me about Obama being the devil (because I thought canvassing in '08 was a good idea).
- redczar 1y agoI’m white and not from the south. But I went to FSU as an undergrad. White people assumed I was just like them in attitude and beliefs. One friend tried to get me into Christianity. He casually mentioned that black dominated churches weren’t real Christians. For “them” it was cultural and not a real belief. The biggest snowflakes in the country are white southern Christians in my experience. Anything that challenges their privilege is an attack to them.
