Red State America is all about fear and DEATH.
Country music is whiny and negative. I refuse to have anything to do with it.
Talk radio is hate radio, these rednecks are whipped into a state of fear and anger. The blacks and the browns are taking EVERYTHING away from them including their jobs. Everything is somebody else's fault.
In church, they sit there and put up with an ignorant preacher telling them they are EEEVILLLLL and SINNERS and they are going to HELL or else......no self-esteem there. I have too much self-esteem to put up with a Christian minister and their message of original sin. It drove me nuts, so I left. They just want to scare people and take their money so they can live high on the hog and feel holy and righteous.
I have neighbors with six foot tall torture devices in their front yards to show their "faith". Bullshit. It's a primitive syncretic (nothing original in it) death cult.
They live fueled by hatred of Obama, hatred of blacks, hatred of those lazy Messcans who are takin' their jobs (which one is it)???
I hate it here.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1920417It's pretty clear this DUmbass has never heard talk radio, nor has he ever been inside a church. Otherwise he's an authority.
He also borrowed nutcase nadin's thesaurus to look up a word he still doesn't understand.

3. You know the fear of 911 and it's[sic] effectiveness
Is indeed inversely proportional to how deep you are in red country. Noticed that myself when I stayed in Cleveland for a month.
We get two ignorant nadinisms for the price of one!
After her customary misuse of "it's", nutcase nadin confuses "inversely" with "directly".
But "inversely" sounds so much more intellectual, don't you think?
Of course, she unwittingly almost gets it right, since Cleveland is the furthest thing from "red country".
In fact, nutcase nadin's crappy little condo beside that roaring freeway in San Diego is in much "redder" country than Cuyahoga County.
DUmmy libnumberDaBone decides to expand on nutcase nadin's ignorance of Ohio:

9. Ya.. Cleveland is in Love with Gov Kasich.. and his giant yard sale...
Gov Kasich (Koch Teabag Soldier) is selling off all the prisons, the State-run liquor stores, the water systems, the schools, the hospitals, the Toll Roads... all this to his Corporate Buddies and all for 10 Cents on the dollar.
People in Ohio will wake up broke and living in a cardboard box.
Uh, DUmmy, your jug-eared muslim won Cuyahoga County, which includes Cleveland and its civilized suburbs, with 70% of the vote.
In fact, there were something like 80 precincts where he carried 99+% of the vote.
Gov. Kasich won 36% of the Cuyahoga County vote in 2010.

6. Life can be tough in a red state, especially if
you live in a particularly RW area. I suggest you save some money and leave the place you're in -- that's what I'm trying to do, although the town I live in isn't so bad compared to many places in the South. You don't have to go far; there are liberal enclaves spread out all over the country. I've lived in some real shitholes, and I know how depressing it is to be stuck in a place like that. I wish you the best of luck in getting out of there.
Poor DUmmies. In any nice neighborhood, most of your neighbors will be repukes. In solid blue areas, you'll hear gunfire at night.

8. Mega churches and Country are pure filth.
Two venues (three if one ads[sic] in right wing hate radio) that spread hate and despair.
Country music is whiny and negative. I refuse to have anything to do with it. Indeed.
After 9/11, country became even more nauseating than it already was. From 2005 on wards[sic] there has been a constant theme in the genre which
pines to go back to the "good ole days". This theme has become constant since the Whitehouse[sic] received it's[sic] first dark skinned[sic] occupant.

16. I'm not even a country music fan, but your description of country music cracked me up.
Here's a link to the current Billboard Country Top Ten. If you find negativity there you're looking pretty damn hard my friend.

22. Remeber[sic] what happened to the Dixie Chicks?
Remember the country base also managed to remove the Beatles from their tour.
I have no respect for those inbred bastards.
The Beatles?

15. this is not a political statement
Your biased and fear-based view of millions of people is exactly what gives the right wing traction with people.

19. I agree. There are millions of people that don't like the rightwing at all.
But people that call themselves progressives treat those people like trash.

21. I give them facts, and they ignore me.
They give opinions on things they know nothing about. I correct them and they ignore me.

26. I did not say they are all the same. You are misinterpreting my words.
The people in the big cities are generally more tolerant. I'm just talking about where I live in East Shitholia.
There are a few people here that are interested in music and books. There is a book club that meets once a month nearby. But I have been to book club meetings where they talk about Christianity because they are obsessed with it. One woman said she told her niece not to say "*******" because "that was hurting God".
A man said "Christianity has something special in it". Former English professor.
I did not go back to any meetings for a year because of that and explained why to the woman who organizes it in an email. I told her I thought that was a stupid statement (about hurting God) and that I thought blasphemy was a victimless crime.
If they want to talk about how great they think Christianity is, they can do that at church.

27. I don't blame them
If someone who held me in utter contempt showed up and tried to "give me facts" I would ignore them, too.

32. I do not show contempt to them. I am not hostile.
