Every group their administration is oppressing lives in the state as well, as well as plenty of innocent people who don't belong to those groups. They're all actual human beings living their lives and suffering under a government that actively targets them.
I'm sick of people damning those of us who live places with shitty governments for what they do. So many are assholes to people from the south or the midwest, when we're the ones who suffer the most from their bullshit. Everywhere you look there's some smug liberal talk show host or internet commenter cracking jokes about the stupidity of the people they claim to care about and how we're all cousin-fuckers who deserve no sympathy. Instead of trying to feel superior over us because you know our states suck, have a damn heart.
