Can’t even be smug here, like this is a real radicalization moment for many a red state lefty.

If these are my “friends”, who needs the libs?

EDIT: mistakenly put ‘rural’ when I meant ‘red state’.

True but Memphis isn't really rural.

That's what's shocking about this, this isn't a Podunk town, Memphis is one of the biggest cities in the Southern US, probably why there's bigger backlash against this.

Yeah my bad, probably should have rephrased this to “red state lefty”.

Not really "your bad", Memphis is sort of seen as "culturally" rural, as are a lot of cities in the Southern part of the US. People seem to forget that Atlanta is a major metro area cuz it doesn't culturally feel like NYC.
