This is both true and also we need to note how eager Texas has shown itself to be to send its own NG into blue states to try and forcibly occupy them. The Texas GOP is a source of evil in this country snd the next Dem administration needs to go about breaking them as an R power center.

It just highlights so clearly the contrast between a generation that had the confidence that came from having walked through the greatest passages of arms in human history and came out the other end thinking, "maybe 'defense' is a better word" and these insecure manchildren afraid of seeming 'woke.'

I think this is a part of that, but I also think that part of the college/non-college split is a self-sorting of curious people and incurious people. It's one of the reasons why LLMs, an easy answers tool for the incurious, are increasingly conservative-coded.

Took me being around a lot of white, conservative, southerners in college to get the right-wings number. They are bad people, who relish in doing bad things. They will lie, cheat, and steal to get to power. And proudly be hypocritical to wield power.

near illiberalism. I used to be a lawyer. I still am one, but I also used to be one. better things are in fact possible. The most effective liberals have been those forced to compromise with leftists, not those left to compromise with conservatives.
