I’m a middle aged white guy. It’s really not that bad.
Me too!
The look of betrayal when they figure out I am in fact mocking them is hilarious.
That’s what attracts me about the idea, but I know I steer the other way as soon as I see a red hat these days. I would never be able to stop wondering about the conversations I wasn’t having with people.
Those conversations are wild. I’m a middle age, bearded, tall, chubby white guy that lives in a smaller pnw town and often get blasted in the face with some of the most vial hate speech in passing interactions with these people. It wasn’t like this 10 years ago. When we first moved here I was shocked at the shit these guys would openly say to a random stranger. Generally all it takes is a “wrong team bro” for them to get the hint thankfully.
You shouldn’t have hate in your heart anyways, but ignorance is endemic in rural areas. Just keep that shit in the barn and trailer park, Carl.
Its really sad because rural America is a beautiful place where you can still find tight knit community, find ways to be self sufficient to work on your own land. But I’m not white and worry about running into the wrong crowd…
