Aside from beaches, barbecue, and college football, the south has been shit for over 150 years.

The problem with the south is that they're so ignorant they don't realize how much they hold back the country as a whole. They simply don't know any better so unfortunately things will not change anytime soon.

I couldn't say, but I would admit that the south has less shit weather cold temperature-wise and therefore theoretically have a lot more of a time variance where enjoyable beach time is possible.

That all being said, I personally prefer beaches in western Michigan to be the best.

it may also be that you live a relatively sheltered life and the problems that plague the south don't personally impact you, so you discount how bad things are

I wonder if that's still true. It was only a marginal majority as of the 2010 census (I think like 52%). Though most of the fastest growing metros are in the south iirc, so if anything it may have gone up

The issue with the South is that they are raised to never question those above them: the church, their elders, and the media and government that panders to them. This causes them be incapable of thinking for themselves, which holds them culturally in stasis as outdated norms get blindly passed from one generation to the next. It also allows them to be extremely easily manipulated if you're a "trusted" source, because they literally don't know how to think critically and question things on their own.

This is not a problem isolated to the South, mind you, however it is intrinsic to the South's culture, which is why it is so pervasive.

Uh, disprove what? I don't know you, so I'm not going to try to prove or disprove whether or not you're sheltered, much like you did nothing to prove you weren't.

The south is awful for a lot of people either way.

I used to be one of you rubes thinking the South is just one big bastion of unmitigated ignorance and racism when I lived in the northeast.

Turns out that assumption comes from unmitigated ignorance itself. But I'm willing to bet most people agreeing with TC hardly leave their mom's basement, let alone leave their state and head south to see for themselves.

Exactly. You don't know me, and I don't need to prove anything to you because I wasn't the one making that claim

Lots of places in this country are awful for a lot of people. Using a blanket term like that just for the south is dumb
