Since someone else posted it here as "proof" of what rural America is like.

My take: This is an inane piece of garbage so unreadable I wonder if the writer has brain damage and I'd advise against trying to understand it to avoid potential brain damage.

I actually read the thing in its entirety the other day.  Completely idiotic.  The notion that urban or coastal areas are inherently less racist than rural ones needs to die.

But everyone knows the Mississippi coast is racial paradise!

Articles like this are why the "muh elitist out-of-touch liberals" narrative won't die.
'cause they keep making more of them for some reason.  Like Doritos, only less interesting.

This isn't a seriously journalism work though. It's just some idiot ranting on Tumblr.

But someone here actually unironically cited it, so it's fair game.

I love how the moron who wrote this crap doesn't mention the rural area he grew up in...or even the state or region its located in.

Because every single rural area in the country is the same after all!
