For a long time, people oppressed could move to new frontiers, whether moving to Americas from Europe, or to the West from the Eastern cities. There was a chance to start over.
Now there really aren’t many places to escape to without being subjugated by the ruling class.

Robert Pirsig noted this in his second book LILA.
He attributed it to picking up personality traits from the Plains Indians.

This is why the NWO and Commiecrats want to force people into population centers.

Well, that’s a shocker. People who are tough, self-reliant, independent-minded and distrust strangers choose to live outside of cities. I wonder how much was spent on this study.

Well we just can’;t have independence now can we? Must suppress, oppress, and distress till noone has a backbone anymore- /s

If you go to the mountain towns of Vail and Jackson Hole and Sun Valley, you will find that many of the people there display the personality characteristics of bragging, contempt, arrogance and general assholery.
These are the tourist from back East and California.

Every community should be proud of their heritage, and aware of their flaws. As an extension...

What’s really sad is that the so-called “academics” take this kind of navel gazing seriously, As if it were actual science.

Left California 22 years ago to return to Utah after leaving here in 1967. Yeah us rugged hicks live in log cabins and have at least 3-4 firearms on hand to protect us from the pandering idiots.

When are these academic elites going to do a psychological profile of elite Hollywood leftists, Antifa members, and BLM supporters?
