Something I’ve identified about race relations in the United States

You didn't already know this from your time in the northeast while attending Princeton?

The Sopranos provides a hyper-accurate depiction of a contemporary family in New Jersey.

A really weak premise for a troll. The Sopranos debuted over 20 years old & has little to do with anyone's contemporary culture.

Serves you right when Yankees treat you like you're an extra from The Beverly Hillbillies.

Post civil war propaganda. The north painted the southern states as dumb racist savages to mitigate sympathy for those areas and people that had been decimated by the war.

I, for one, revel in the stereotypes about Southerners. In my travels across the country, my heavy North Alabama accent has made me stand out - and Yankees, along with Westerners, tend to assume the worst. There's nothing as satisfying as making someone look dumb for assuming that you are dumb.

"I grew up on one of two paved roads in the state. I remember getting running water at 8 and electricity when I was 13."
"Wow! That kind of poverty must have been unimaginable."
"It really was. Somehow my grandfather managed to program the computers for the Saturn missions without ever having read a book."

Has he gone back and renamed his "Master" branch in source control yet? Hit me up in Teams if you run into problems.

I dont know, my mother married into an Italian family when I was still young. I had to listen to and hear a lot of shite from wanna-be people.

Who thought fricking Bon Jovi was the shite. They hated slayer..

Your analogy is stupid but the premise is correct.. the largest voices are northeastern liberal elites who have self segregated by race and class for ions.. it’s easy to view racial injustice from atop without walking with those you want to advocate for while diregarding the general distaste between lower social circles in regards to ethnicity. Spike Lee while tainted from one side but has been highlighting this discord since Do the right thing.

The North is just as racist as the South, maybe even more so. But there aren’t as many chances of incidents happening between Blacks and Whites. So they think they are less racist that the South.

When I visit family in the Midwest and west the populations tend to self segregate. At least in what I could tell. Since the towns were overwhelmingly white, and minority’s already kept to themselves, I found that the white population (my family included) tended to be just flat out ignorant on race relations. However they were also by far more vocal on the issue which was strange due to their lack of real world interaction with other races.

100% of white yankees hate black people
