Decent Long-Form Gossip Kids Politics Club On The Hateful Racist Rightwing History Of North Carolina

And the South in general.  North Carolina and the white people there--and amazingly enough even Florida 30 years ago--seemed almost ready to crawl up from the filth of the Confederacy and begin to comport themselves like a civilized society because of education and technology and improvement in general, but the fear and racism and christian insanity was too strong a pull, and the whites remained too ignorant and easy to manipulate at the hands of the GOP.   Now, the entire region is so far gone into a racist teabagging hell hole after the Obama years that it will be another century before they might be redeemed.  That seems like an awful lot of trouble for the rest of us, so instead we should be looking for our very own modern General William Tecumseh Sherman to be the hero America truly needs in order to rid ourselves of the problem once and for all.  And 150 years too late.
