I live in South Carolina (more specifically the suburbs in the coastal region), so I already live in the birthplace of the Confederacy (who my great-great-grandfather fought for), Strom Thurmond, and Jim Clyburn, among others. You can only pick between republicans pretending to be libertarian, the most fascist republicans in the party, and democrats who attempt to reach out to the endangered never-trump crowd by having at least one of them in all of their ads. My representative is one of the “anti-establishment” Dems, which means that he isn’t afraid to criticize the party, as long as that criticism isn’t from the left. The zoomers such as me are either LGBT comrades (me), PE kids who have never thought about politics in their life, or edgelord chuds who most likely were indoctrinated by their parents with subscriptions to seventeen weapon catalogs.
i live in better carolina with the mountain folk. This mechanic I knew named squirrel got stopped for like registration and represented himself in court on some sovereign citizen shit and they dismissed his citation. I had to refund my derision.
It sucks but at least you're the big fish in the little pond because everybody is ignorant and they all have diabetes. My ex was a high school drop out and she was always telling me how smart I was. little did she know...
I grew up in SC, in Columbia and what a mother fucker that place is. One of the hardest drinking towns I've ever been in. Full of the worst kind of frat culture, lawyers who wear bowties, and military people from fort jackson. Honestly feel like I'd have ended up in jail or drank myself to death if I'd stayed there.
My advice is try to get out if you can. Team up with a friend or two and move to a decent sized city.
Describe everyday political life as a lefti--er, liberal--in the deep south

TL;DR: Pain. Absolute pain.

PE?
Physical Education, basically gym class
physical ed, stuff like track and basketball, sometimes with health classes mixed in.
