it’s amazing they just automatically assume every rural person is conservative. and even then, it goes without saying: nobody deserves to die, and everyone should have the right to medical care

Tbf, if that assumption was wrong, Trump would be sitting in a prison cell right now instead of the Oval Office.

very cool that he also wants me to die bc my family and i got priced out of the suburban town where i grew up and we had no choice but to move out to a rural area. seems like he should be mad at high cost of living instead but what do i know

I guarantee that the people providing these services are disproportionately left leaning relative to the population as a whole.

You mean the people who used to provide those services. clear majorities of rural voters think they don’t need Medicaid. They have voted to hit cities at every opportunity fuck y’all

TIL there are no more teachers, librarians, or nurses in rural areas.

If rural areas had to pay for them there wouldn’t be and wouldn’t have been since the “Reagan Revolution”.

Whatever. I live in a black city ringed by white suburbs that we subsidize that vote among other things to hand over out police to the governor. We didn’t start this war but we will finish it. Outstate voters have been killing urban citizens with their votes my whole life

Also just the utter lack of understanding that no one is immune to propaganda.

Rural areas are more politically heterogeneous than urban ones, they’re not competitive because it’s more of a 60/40 split in favor of conservatives vs an 80/20 split for liberals in urban areas. It’s part of the reason why geography based representation is flawed.
