My guess abt a lot of ppl in farming communities is a ignorance bathed in generational prejudice - their fathers & neighbors said so; it gets repeated. Didn't hear this story - did the NPR host correct then & there the false narrative on Dem vs GOP spending?

This is why I left NPR...too much normalizing, giving a platform to RW GOP w/out refuting their lies during interviews/reporting and that they accept Koch Industries funding. The Koch RW's long term strategy was to mainstream their ppl & ideology..

So basically because Democrats are trying to realize the American dream for people of all walks of life and not just white Christian's, they hate us - the Left? Sounds about right...

They are not being honest

I think they genuinely don’t know. They believe what Republicans have told them. And listen selectively. They know taxes are higher in blue states.

In the rural Midwest where it's mostly white? Abortion and gay rights were the wedges that connected them to the national radical right which then pushed white nationalism and xenophobia as well. I would say abortion was the initial wedge issue though.

I'm not saying they were not racist before, but the racism was less politically salient. Now it's racism first, other issues second.
