Enough bullshit that we ignore rural areas and small towns

59. If "rural folks" don't like the policies that are hurting them

they should stop voting for Republicans. But they don't. Because, for a lot of them, voting for Democrats is voting to help "those others," you know--the brown people and the libs and the city people and people who don't go to church--that they despise because hate radio has told them they should. They keep whining about their lot in life and yet they won't let go of their attachment to the party of fascism. They vote against their own economic interests again and again. And, yes, there are some Democrats and liberals amongst the rural people, but overwhelmingly--as a generality--rural people love them some GQP. So, until they start to let go of their attachment, there's not much outsiders can do to help them. They're fucking themselves over repeatedly, and then whining constantly and blaming others for their plight.
