That’s fine by me. I love internecine, state-based rancor. During more than the first half of this country’s history, people used to define themselves moreso by their state than by the nation. When the populace started thinking more ‘national’ in scope, the more provencial matters and needs in terms of politics seem to have wilted. All while we’ve had greater acceptance of elite, faraway media dictating our agendas, and presidents gleefully getting away with executive orders.
I relish regional and state-based rancor. I love for my state of Texas to be specifically regarded disreputable. Keeps more of the lib trash from even considering moving here.
