edit: seems like some people interpret “full of” as a mathematical majority which, while it may or might not be true instance to instance, isn’t my intent in posting
feel free to swap in “has a lot of” if that’s more familiar language to you :)

Eh... I live in the cousin-fuckingly-deep South. In a city, and I work in a hospital, so I think it's pretty safe to say this is one of the more left leaning bubbles within a hundred miles. ...and there are still a fuckton of Nazis here.
There are absolutely decent people trapped here, but we're legit outnumbered. It isn't just gerrymandering or some shitty system at fault: the majority of southerners are just fucking evil.
There's always some thinly veiled excuse - "We don't hate women, we just want to protect the babies!" "We don't hate immigrants, we just want to protect our jobs!" "We don't hate trans people, we just want to protect our bathrooms!" but when you hear them talk amongst themselves about those people it's pretty clear they really do just hate them.
Most southerners are sincerely not good people.
(edit: i came to an understanding with the person im responding to and i was not happy with how this comment was worded so deleting it because it wasn’t contributing)
I mean for sure it's the entire country, with only depressingly slight variations in concentration one way or the other - but your image is about southerners specifically, so that's what I addressed.
...and honestly, it scales up as high as you want to take it - for the most part, humans are just evil sacks of shit.
There ya go. I fully agree with you here. 👍 Sending love to you as “one of the good ones.” (Sorry that sounds mean but I don’t know how to put it XD)
[Again apologies if my initial comment came off as abrasive. My entire post is a reaction to some crowds cheering on the recent tragedy in Texas and it’s clear now you are not anywhere near a part of that crowd and I misread the situation.]
No worries at all. Typing is a shitty medium for this kind of conversation: tone is mostly lost. I'm guilty all the time of making posts that sound 10x angrier than I intended. ...or angry at all: usually I'm bouncing somewhere between numb, depressed, or caffeine-induced mania. I'm not really ever mad or aggressive; but then I'll re-read a post I made the day prior and realize it comes off as absolutely pissed which is pretty much never the intention at the time of posting.
I do tend to use profanity pretty casually... maybe it's that?
But yeah, when in doubt, read an internet-stranger's post in the voice of Eeyore. Sometimes the words alone just don't do the trick.
(Personally for me it was the “cousin fucking” language that gave me the wrong impression. Not to tone police, that’s just kind of how I got to where I was because that’s very common in circles that tend to do dehumanizing .)
