    I always hear this.

    I am brown and grew up in the Midwest.

    Then my family moved to the south.

    This is like comparing Canadians who care about hockey with the Khmer Rouge exterminating much of their population.

    The south is just infinitely worse in literally every way.

        In the Midwest there are bad people too.

        The difference?

        In the Midwest when a racist is being a racist, people say shit, they stand up to them!

        In the south the bystanders just laugh, at worst they laugh nervously.

        Which is why it’s a vile and corrupt society.

        Police yourself, or don’t be surprised to be judged as evil.
