I’m a Coastal Elite from the Midwest: The Real Bubble Is Rural America
We have read this piece 1000 times before.<p>And for the 1000th time, it is necessary to say, &quot;rural America understands that they are not your priority&quot;.<p>The modern left finds it more virtuous to hire a wealthy black man or a wealthy white woman than to hire a poor white man. Rural America knows.<p>In fact, and more people are coming to terms with the modern left&#x27;s perverse priorities. Indian people? Indian people don&#x27;t even exist to these costal elites. Indians are dramatically underrepresented in popular culture, but the left only cares about replacing white people in popular culture with black people.<p>People like Mr. Thornton would never dare demand that we replace black people with Indian people where black people are overrepresented.<p>You can keep lecturing poor white people about how backward and toothless and spoiled they are, while never daring to say a negative word about black people. You can keep telling poor white people to stop being tribal, while fomenting tribalism in every other group (except Indians). You can keep claiming to care about representation, while ignoring everyone but the groups that earn them the most virtue points.<p>My Thornton, everyone is wising up to your priorities and the priorities of those in your wealthy costal social circles.<p>Yeah, I&#x27;m bitter.
