“There is a resentment and rejection of liberal culture. That culture is not available to many people in America. And the liberal coastal elite, who may never have been to rural America, just think everyone there is racist and homophobic and judge them to be terrible people. They think there is nothing wrong to be making jokes about 'meth heads', who are actually a group of people with poverty-related drug issues. They don't see their own hypocrisy. I think this is a huge issue and one that cannot be ignored.” PeopleThinkingCultureJudgingTerribleDrugJokesRejectionHypocrisyRacistResentmentIgnoredHomophobic Author:Erika M. Anderson
