Exactly! I could move back to Detroit, but out here? Surrounded by conservative Christians and other rednecks? Fuck that. Covid-denying, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, shit-kicking, intentionally stupid people. Gawd, I hate them.

Sorry I'm not being more positive, but I loathe these horrible people and have no idea what to do to make anything better.

I could leave, but these scum would still be here making homophobic, sexist, racist cracks at the bar while devout Christians cheer them on.

I have nothing positive to say. This is who we are as a nation.
