Tech Founder: Middle America Is Too ‘Violent, Stupid And Racist’ For New Jobs

One Silicon Valley executive had a few choice words to describe Americans living in the heart of the nation, and they were not flattering.

Melinda Byerley, MBA and founder of Timeshare CMO, a Silicon Valley-based tech start-up, tweeted out Saturday afternoon describing what middle America could do to “get more jobs in their area.”

She is what you call an “intellectual inbred”... Many live in their own insular Echo chamber but the leftist particular blind to it...

(wisdom is knowing you know nothing ... and ignorance is thinking you know everything...and thinking you know everything is a common problem on the left)

The left claim they live in a diverse environment when actually its intellectually monochromatic

Her remakes are just as stupid and ignorant and small minded as any we would imagine being made by what she conjures up ...a pack of cartoonish stereotypical inbred rednecks populating the whole center of the country

there's a famous New Yorker cover it shows his mindset from a New York liberal mindset... they consider themselves diverse but really see their little world as the only relevant part of the whole universe

I have yet to see a male-to-female sex change in which the man is transformed into a beautiful woman - or even one that is easy on the eyes. They all end up looking like Robert Plant or Janet Reno.

True, an army of beauticians and make-up artists can make anybody look good for a few hours. Cases in point are Bruce Jenner and Hillary Clinton. But who wants to have to put that much time and effort into it on a daily basis? We know what Hillary Clinton looks like sans makeup. I wonder what Bruce Jenner looks like normally.

“CEO” my buttocks! This “company” is most likely nothing more than a one person show owned and operated by this fruitcake.

The “About” page is just fricking hilarious:

“Free-range, artisanal, organic, customized marketing.”

“Birkenstocks-on-the ground expertise”

“We’ll teach you and your team how to fish”

This is why the H-1b work visa program can’t just be tinkered with. It has to be eliminated.

BINGO!

[Mr. Douglas]

I think I am over-generalizing.

I really do love the people here. It’s one of the reasons I moved here. The real problem I’m trying to point out is that there are, for the sake of this discussion, three types of people here:
1. What I earlier called “riff-raff” (using the term a little jokingly as Faulty Towers always comes to mind when I say that). These people are, from the corporation’s perspective, a waste of space and worse. They suck the productivity from an area.
2. Good, hard working people that are either not well educated or just plain not very smart, due to pre- and post-natal care, upbringing, etc. This actually includes a lot of my friends.
3. Well educated and up on the times regarding technology, and have the training to bring true value to these high tech companies.

The problem is that there just are not all that many members of group 3. And most of them either own their own business or commute to the cities (I’m a member of the latter). And more and more are telecommuting, which I’d like to do.

Put it all together and there is just not that much motivation for large tech companies to move to places like this.

However, the author is really bigoted in her article. It’s as if she is saying that if we embraced sexual perverts and welcomed in all the muslims we could fit we’d somehow meet her requirements. Yet those are some of the reasons I moved here - to get away from that baloney. My neighbor with an 8th grade education mows my hay to feed his livestock that he does for extra money because his job making wine barrels that he has done for 22 years only pays $16 an hour.

And I bush hog the field of my other neighbor who lives in a single wide with a meticulously mowed lawn, but inside there is a 2 foot hole in the living room floor that is covered with a 1/4 inch steel plate and the interior looks literally like a garbage dump. And he lives with his wife, his son and step son on disability. Oh, and they have no indoor plumbing.

And the cost of living is so low here that you CAN live on disability. So a lot of people do.

I thought you were making up this wording. It’s amazing they actually put such drival on their web page to describe the company.

These elitists really piss me off. As if they, and only they understand What is the “right or “proper” expression of what is or isn’t the American experience. Their thought prcesses are binary (You must be all of this or all of that) and limited by ther extremely narrow worldview. They throw their shoulders out patting themselves on the back for their inclusiveness and openmindedness when, in reality they are in perfect lockstep with other liberals. There is very little variation in their pattern, because IT IS NOT TOLERATED BY OTHER LIBERALS. One way or out of the club. In other words, they are totalitarians. In the Conservative worldview there is much more room for differences. Take me for example. I am a walking pile of contradictions. In school, i was a jock who also did theater and dressed up like Tom Bakers “Doctor Who”. I like Rachmaninoff, the Romantics AND the Ramones. While I like working on things mechanical and being constructive there is nothing quite like blowing sh*t up! I carry both a gun and a first aid kit in my car because, While I will defend myself if needed, I will make sure that you get the best care possible...so you can live long enough to go to trial.. I’ve mentioned a lot of my interests over the years to other FReepers and some were interested, some were not. But I never got the “eeew, why would you do that, you’re a freak!” reaction. it was always “not my thing, but whatever. Have fun.”
Contrary to popular stereotypes Conservatives are the easygoing types, not the liberals. Matter of fact they’re the most humorless bunch of weasels out there. The one thing we have a real problem with, however is people performing destructive and evil acts while hiding behind the banner of personal choice. For that we are called reactionary. I’m glad these idiots are entering a “wilderness” period. But just remember, libs are like herpes: they’re never really “gone” for long.

I always see the “uneducated” vote somewhat more than 50% statistic, but never see mentioned the Totally illeterate vote 95% democrat mentioned

You really are Mr. Douglas, aren’t you???

Welcome to “Green Acres”.....

And that, ladies, gentlemen, and fellow deplorables, sums up what the Left thinks of us.

By the way, honey, your startup is stillborn.

Bless her heart.

Oooo. Yikes. You didn't just say that?! :-)

Mrs WBill explained the term to me. Being an ignorant (but willing to learn) Northerner, I'd not heard it before. Quite the curse, among genteel Southern Ladies.

I read this woman's screed, and my thought was, "What makes her think that I'd want someone like her living in my town? I live here precisely to AVOID Liberal Jackwagons like her!"

Bless her heart.

Such love from the hate+free-zoners...

Truly despicable human beings.

From the looks of her, she probably likes to sniff other women. Melinda, you are an elitist ahole.

I'm not sure you're over generalizing. I understood your point, as would anyone without a chip on their shoulders.

Elites don't mix. Small town America has no choice.

If not for my business I wouldn't spend any time on Mercer Island, Magnolia, Queen Anne, etc. I appreciate them as clients, but for the most part they aren't people I'd care to socialize with.

I saw the opposite over the weekend, a cruise through Spanaway on Pacific Ave. It seemed to be overwhelmed by fast food, tattoo parlors and cannabis shops...And billboards advertising same.

I've had the same experience at Renton Wal-Mart. I describe it as being like the bar scene from Star Wars. Yet less than 25 minutes away in Covington (WA) if the nicest Wal Mart you can imagine.

You've got a King County population in excess of two million, a three county population (King, Pierce, Snohomish) of 3.8 million. "Next" is possible, not so much in rural areas.

[wbill]

I had no problem whatsoever with other southern people, no matter what they made

'Tis one of the things I like about the south, or at least the area that I live in. I can count on one hand the number of times I've been asked "So, what do you do for a living?". Been here for nearly 30 years, now.

Contrast that with a visit I took to Chapel Hill, NC (otherwise known as Berkley East). More academic types than I could shake a stick at. Not the most personable people, and the first thing that all (dozens...) of them asked me was, "So, what do YOU do for a living.".

Mentioned it to my Dad. He said, "It's because they want to pigeonhole you. What you do, how much money you make, whether you're worth their spending their valuable (/s) time on..." Makes as much sense as anything, to me.

[Mr. Douglas]

Exactly!

That’s what some of my neighbors called me when I first moved here. :)

When I look at a map of violent crime in the US, and compare it to the red/blue map, the high crime areas are the blue areas.

There is one reason only that the Bay area is an innovator. The biggest venture capital firms, started in the PC boom 30 years ago, are still there and practically require companies to locate in the bay area. Othere states, however, are builing up VC firms themselves.
