And, yes, they know what you think of them. Your ignorant criticisms of their lives and choices only confirm their support of Trump.
thank fuck these are precisely the people who are losing life expectancy, as shown by the deaton paper.
NP here - I grew up in small town Pennsylvania and can confirm 100% that the support for Trump comes from small-mindedness, lack of vision, most people never went beyond high school and their interests are mainly just limited to sports and hunting, their world view mainly just comes from TV and movies.
If the people you're describing are hard-working, honest, and doing their best to take care of their families, your criticism of them reflects poorly on you, despite our "open-mindedness and vision."
I was getting ready to type the same thing when I saw your post. Bravo! Damn, I hate this area and the people in it.
PP here--thanks! Not saying it's everyone, but there does seem to be a large number of people in the DC area who look down with contempt on people who go about the business of working hard, staying out of trouble, and trying to take care of their families and pay their bills, even with a limited education. I don't know Pennsylvania other than one trip to Philadelphia, but I do know similar people in the southern states where I've lived. In my opinion, they deserve much admiration for their efforts and contributions.
