      I had to read some book by a garbage right-libertarian crank for school and he was from New Hampshire and constantly talked about the values he learned from his dad and state about self-reliance and boot straps and what not and that's why we need to base our society on brutal cruelty to the poor and it was very clearly just thinly veiled racism and toxic masculinity bleeding into his political economy.

      It took a lot, but I was willing to give NH the benefit of the doubt and assume that schmuck was not reflective of an entire state. Rethinking that generosity in light of this.
