In other terms, West Virginia’s 2020 population size was 8.3% of Florida’s. As someone that grew up in Florida most of their life, I find that the culture has made a pronounced change since my childhood.

      Being economically fucked over doesn’t make you not a racist dirtbag, especially when you keep voting for the racist dirtbags who have done nothing for you except validate racist dirtbag behavior.

      Like seriously, it’s pretty fucking hard to beat the racism allegations when that’s literally the only possible draw the people you keep electing could possibly have.

      These people vote against their own economic interests, and they see it as the price they pay to feel like they can defend saying the N-Word at the dinner table this thanksgiving.

      I’ve watched a few of his videos and they’ve all been very interesting. I’d recommend some of his coverage on Native American/Indian issues.

      He also did good job showing the border situation from the lenses of people from every side of it (migrants, cartel coyotes, local sheriffs, & cities hosting the migrants). It highlights how dogmatism of politicians is hurting ordinary people.
