@ post one.

Based on all the whining I have seen over the years, rural white dudes from middle America are the most over-sensitive, snow flake-ish, wet noodles around - constantly whining about their perceived victimhood and demanding others respect them and treat them in the manner they think they are accustomed to and their privilege affords them.

You'd think that rural, middle class, white dudes are among the most downtrodden and disrespected demographics in the country!!

There are people in this world that are actually real victims, suffer real tragedy, and are subject to real discrimination and harassment - people of color, Syrian refugees, low-income single mothers, transgendered and gay people, disadvantaged communities of all colors.

When you really put it all in context and perspective, the plaintive whines of the rural white dude just ain't cuttin' the mustard!

So, he can crack on evince and it’s okay, lol, but I throw back at him and you cry foul. STFU

Did you read Hillbilly Ellegy by JD Vance?

[Mason Michaels]

no it's not. Middle America is just that. Middle income, culture, values.
Believe it or not there are many black people raising families and working the American dream all across the country.
In fact the south doesn't have the urban ghettos of the north.

Apples and Oranges,you're speaking of reality,not the context "middle America" , was used on the show.

[Mason Michaels]

and the republicans broke those rules with Russian help

Of course they did!Hopefully Mueller will straighten it out.

[Mason Michaels]

sadly you are correct, especially with the statist Dems in power who do not understand the benefits of federalism

Republicans put the Federal Government deeper in debt then the left

[Mason Michaels]

being robbed is not losing

Trumps President,that's not winning!

Of course it's okay to crack on evince, she's an obnoxious lunatic. Have you never read her postings? Do you admonish her for her endless stream of Tourette like insults? Perhaps you should STFU.

ex addict. ( back in Baltimore -the city that runs on dope)
I smoke a very little bit now - maybe occasional late night.

Buddhism got me clean, and while Buddhism does not look kindly on any intoxicants ( clouds the mind)
we are afterall only human

Folks in the flyover states have had, for quite some time, the same Internet with all of the social media and television, etc. as the people who live on the coasts. Pretending that they are all rubes is either stupid or obnoxious, if not both.

The same is true of portraying everyone who lives in the deep, deep south as ignorant hillbillies.

the flyover country rubes have an ignorant parochial culture, never actually being immersed in culture and diversity, fearful of others not fitting into their monochromatic christian world . The only connection they have to others is the internet, fearful of any change and people not like them, truly an inbred backward culture

I didn't say that they were stupid or uninformed, CO. At least, that's not what I meant.
I said that they have different social and political values--different enough to be incompatible with LA and New York progressive liberals.
We're a nation of people who don't like one another.
