    East of the cascades it’s all racism. But to the west I didn’t encounter it much. But that may just be an anecdotal comparison to the actual shit holes I have lived in where racism thrived rather than lurked.

      I traveled all over Oregon and Washington after living in the southeast.

      What you say holds true but to a lesser degree than true red areas.

      A lot of the people who consider themselves conservative would be relentlessly bullied for being a liberal if they moved to an actual red area.

      It’s funny because their utopian views of conservative areas mirrored my utopian view of Seattle when I lived in a conservative shit hole.
