I feel like I can’t relate to a lot of leftists online a lot of times so I made this post to just kinda shoot the shit. Anyone have some stories of rural life/annoyances with the online and generally urban left/anything really?
The online left seems pretty hospitable to the rural condition. Unless you’re broadly using left and you mean libs. Libs think we’re all stupid and evil. They think we all vote Republican just to torture them. They think we’re all lazy because muh blue state welfare. They think we make excuses for not being wealthier because we’re all white and therefore should cash in on our privilege or stop working problematic blue-collar jobs that hurt the environment. They have no idea why people out here dislike and distrust Democrats. They think everyone here is irredeemably racist. But the left-left seems to generally get all this and isn’t too bad. I’m sure there some lib-brained holdout thoughts about us but it doesn’t seem common.
Hospitable yes, but there’s a lot they talk about and I just can’t relate. I hate to be all hurr durr city folk just don’t get it but it’s really hard to just explain without having the living the experience of it, but you’re right at least they’re well meaning and caring rather than the hatred that libs feel for rural areas
