I mean, northerners assume that bc on average it's mostly true. Southern states are absolutely full of ignorant people that prefer to stay ignorant and ignore the world around them. Roll coal baby! Let's get rid of the dept of ed fuck yeah. Get rid of NOAA what's it do for me?

I live in a deep red southern state, with a purplish metro area 150 miles away. 99% of my state will continue to vote for stupid policies that are bad for the state and the world at large. Red states exist bc the constituents vote that way.

It’s the same in the North though. The divide is rural vs metropolitan.
