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 :)

~~Strawman, reread the entire post bud.~~ Looks like they just misunderstood.
~~“The south is full of good people” (verbatim quote from my post, objectively true, yes from my own experience and yes minorities) DOES NOT mean “most of southerners are good people” (verbatim YOUR bad-faith interpretation of my post).~~
~~Feel free to try again but as a principle I don’t defend positions I never said in my life.~~
I think that's a pedantic dispute considering you've made rebuttals against people claiming that good people were out numbered. Plus, what does "full of" even mean when it comes to judging the general morality of southern people? I think the generalization of the south being full of good people reads quite a bit differently than there are some good people in the South.
Generalities cannot be objectively true..... Implying that something is full of good people implies a majority, as in a glass fullof milk, is not also full of water.
ah. feel free to swap in “lots of” instead of “full of” then.
sounds like a regional misunderstanding which you unintentionally misconstrued.
people are not liquids in containers. something like “the government is full of corruption” doesn’t mean “more than fifty percent of government workers are corrupt” it just means “lots of corrupt people in government, can’t ignore that” and i would be more than willing to swap the verbage
glad to clear this up as i genuinely didn’t expect that that would be misunderstood
Maybe it's a regional thing....but I don't think I'm the only one who interpreted it that way.
But yeah, there are plenty of decent people in the South, I wouldn't argue against that. I would argue it's a smaller minority than in some of the other places I've lived though.
i recognize that! good to know for the future and i also put an edit to the OP to clarify
