I’m starting to think there might be a reason some people assumed I was a racist redneck when I argued why I like small towns more than cities. Is that seriously what its like in some places? Here you will see the occasional truck covered in trump stickers but that’s pretty much it. There’s plenty of different cultures and views here. Not as much as a city of course, but that’s as expected.
It’s OK to like small towns, but most of the people who live in small towns, never left and have no aspirations to. It’s particularly evident with some of the more uh… shallow gene pool folk. They are so backwards, they know they would get ridiculed around people outside of their comfort zone, which I’m sure they would. They hate “pretty people”. City people are usually pretty people and there is like a weird level of jealousy based around that. I live in what used to be a steel town and when I tell you that everyone who lives at the bottom of the hill have mental issues and all have kids that have learning disabilities, I’m not joking. Heavy metals HAVE to be the cause of so many issues in small towns. There are kids here with growth deformities, 10 miles away there is a nuclear dump that is just chilling in the middle of a residential area. Tons of people got and get cancer there, people continue to live around it and die. I have no idea why lol. It’s insane. The govt put up signs but they aren’t even noticeable. If you drive past, my wife had to point it out. It’s fucking NUCLEAR WASTE. Seriously… I’ve been in fights with a lot of my neighbors over the way they treat their children. My neighbor across the street has 2 kids and 1 black step daughter from his wife’s other marriage, I feel so bad for her. One day I was outside and a group of young boys came up the street with a football, they were about 14. The dad was outside and from across the street I could hear them saying N*gger very loudly. The redneck dad just ignored it. He probably thinks the same thing and is embarrassed by her. I was shocked he just turned away and ignored it. If I ever heard that again, I’d say something l, I should have to make him look bad bit I really didn’t expect him to NOT say something. I pack heat everywhere I go out here, there was a crazy redneck yelling about Biden with a gun last summer at the ice cream stand. He got arrested but if I was there with my kids and someone pulled a gun, I’d have to pop them. Never had that happen in the city. Shits real in the battlefield.
Yeah, but then you have small towns like Boulder Colorado which are much more liberal than you would find even in some larger cities.
And I grew up in the country near a couple of small towns, and we used to relentlessly make fun of rednecks and the illiterate farmers who live near the towns. One of the local high schools however had a dragon as a mascot. Apparently back in the 1980s and '90s, that was not okay because we accuse them of being KKK all the time. That high school could never live that one down.

Boulder has a population of around 100k, I wouldn’t call it small or a town.
Boulder is not a small town. But even if it were, it’s a college town which, surprise surprise, always changes the small town dynamic.
