How about, instead of trashing them for living in a trailer, you start funding the queer liberation groups in Appalachia? How about you contribute to Native defense funds? Or donating to drug rehab centers?

The things you mock TWP for are not unique to TWP. They are prevalent not just in Appalachia, but everywhere, and they are symptoms of poverty. TWP is mockable because they are Nazis, not because they have family dynamics that exist outside white middle class norms.

Furthermore, what gets lost when we paint over all fascist movements with the same brush is that TWP has found success by targeting what white middle class America ignores. To counter TWP we have to identify and address the institutional oppressions affecting Appalachia.
