Watching people say weird shit about southerns on my posts is sometimes goofy. I thought it was very obvious from my vocabulary that Im from the south but guess not. Anyway whenever you talk abt ‘uneducated dumbfucks from the south’ keep in mind that the people you are talking abt are real ass people who are suffering from the fact their state government doesn’t fund education and that our school teachers are constantly being punished when they actually try to teach kids things.
Sometimes it feels like y’all forget that queer people and people of color live in the south and that by pretending the south is some irredeemable wasteland full of bigots you are erasing the communities and progress marginalized people have made in the south.
But also it’s ignoring how the rest of the US ain’t that better either. I moved up north and I still experience transphobia and ableism here. People of color still experience racism here. It’s just as violent as it is in the south. But y’all turn a blind eye to it bc y’all like to act like you’re soooo much better than the south.
