That very well may affect where we chose to go, good info to have. What I've found after most of my travels is that unfortunately, that's pretty common in most of the country when looking at rural/suburban/urban types of areas.

Vermont racism is a weird kind of racism. I’ll fully admit I grew up saying shit that I look back on now with disgust. But it’s a racism of nothing but pure ignorance. I feel like other places that are a little more diverse have racism from hate, VT racism is more like I’ve never seen a black person in my life and everyone around me says the same shit. I was in my teens before I even saw a black person. In my twenties I ended up working on the road as the only white guy on my crew and that was one of the best experiences I could have had to open my eyes.

I’m thinking Vermont is a strange mix of people who live here because they want to live somewhere without diversity (racists) and liberal-democrat-antiracists.

Dude honestly the liberal-democrat-antiracists as you describe them are probably the worst kind of racism. They have this weird savior complex where somehow they think they have all the answers for the groups of people that are “beneath” them. I’ll take some ignorant white kid who says some stupid shit but has the capacity to grow over a woke antiracist douchebag with a seniority complex any day. I’ll admit I’m pretty jaded after living on Martha’s Vineyard for 6 years though. Haha

What makes you think liberal-democrats aren’t racist? Have you been to Jericho???
