- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.

The fact that 200 people out in the boonies voted for Harris is so shocking I'd actually believe they couldn't read and voted wrong before I believed they actually voted for a woman of color.
I hate this. It's so needlessly divisive. There are allies everywhere. Stop writing them off because you're bigoted against them. There's all kinds of people in every area. Sure, rural people tend to be more conservative, because they live in isolated areas without exposure to new ideas. They aren't all this way though. Be welcoming of anyone you can find who agrees with you. These people are far more valuable than almost anywhere else.
It's the inverse of the psychotic belief that cities are terrifying places where people are getting stabbed or shot in the streets on a constant basis
I’m assuming, based off of absolutely nothing, that it’s probably mostly young people. Especially young women.
Keep in mind that voting is secret (as of 2025). For example, a woman can wear a MAGA hat and put the cross next to Harris unless her husband is so controlling to the point of it being illegal.
You suck. You need to re-evaluate a lot of life decisions.
I need to move out of Nebraska.
The irony of someone assuming (or, might I say, prejudging) that people are prejudiced re race/sex based on where they live was definitely not lost on me.
It's only shocking to you because you're a bigot.
