What's wild about the "lol red states are all just Trumpist hicks die in a hurricane kek" shit is that the VAST majority of Black people still live in and around the South (the state I lived in over there was nearly 50% Black as opposed to a measely 5 or so where I am now) because we were so disenfranchised by Jim Crow and unable to own the land we built up for crackers and unable to pass down generational wealth the way crackers and even certain other post civil war immigrants have been able to or migrate very far from wherever they trapped us
Like congrats on wishing the poorest Black people in the country in places like Mississippi get hit with The Exodus Plague the worst, you being a privileged middle class or above asshole from Portland or Seattle or New York is showing, and this is coming from a formerly privileged asshole from California
I was on bluesky for like 15 mins and 75% of the people there strike me as the kind of libs who will post this then go on a rant five mins later about how everyone in the south is an uneducated cousin loving trailer park hillbilly who deserves to drown in a hurricane

You just KNOW they talking about anime.
So I’ve probably told this story before, but - my Gay and Lesbian Studies professor. He’s fairly elderly; he was young in the ‘60s. And he was called up for draft for the Vietnam War. And, like most everybody who was drafted for the Vietnam War, he didn’t want to be in the Vietnam War.
This is the story of how his draft went, as best as I can remember how he tells it.
“Well, son,” said the doctor assigned to do his physical. “You seem healthy from here. Is there any condition you have that would disqualify you from serving in the United States Army?”
“Yes, sir,” said my professor. “I’m gay.”
The doctor blinked at him.
Looked at the door.
Looked back.
“Do you understand what you’re telling me? Do you understand what this means?”
What this meant, in 1969, was that he would be sent home, with the information given to everyone in his hometown about exactly why he had been sent home. It meant he would be disowned by his family. It meant he could pretty much never get a job again. And this was decades before Lawrence v Texas, so it also meant he could very well get arrested.
But, you see, my professor had already been outed. And all these things had already happened.
So “yes, sir,” he said.
“Are you absolutely positive?”
“Yes, sir. My boyfriend is waiting for me outside. Would you like us to demonstrate?”
My professor did not go to Vietnam.
