Reply to comment by Twombls in Election Results - Top 5 Angry Eagle Voting Towns vs Top 5 Welch's Grapes Towns by HomeOnTheMountain_

shrugs undesirable VT places to live have:

  1. Trump Truck Parades
  2. business that don’t mask and sue for the ‘right’ not to, repeatedly, nonsensically
  3. dumb as dogshit ‘anti-CRT’ fans including elected officials like white prider Brian Smith (R-Derby)
  4. schools/boards that didn’t mask well

I love the NEK, went to high school there, et al. Here’s the naysayer truth tho- easier to dump on some region they don’t know well rather than to clean up redneck shit in their area. Most people picking on Rutland for their mascot shit aren’t picking on SoBur for same level of racist fandom (tho different outcome/leadership obv). Shitty people are al over but in less populated areas there is less to cover so shitty people and institutions loom larger. NEK has a lot of things going for it and, as many Vermonters do, not-so-secretly hope people don’t learn the secret and move there.
