But the other map is “vs normal”, not based on absolute numbers.

i failed to notice that, and will reconsider whether the food desert map is appropriate in response. i'm still loving tired of the bullshit wherein "south" is used as gloss for "white conservative".

the regressive heel-digging done by conservatives is definitely an issue but please consider the confounding factors (and remember that not everyone in the south is a white conservative who is doing this on purpose for conservative political reasons)




writing off the entire south and every single human being within it as unsalvagable and not worth caring about because of the actions of political leaders is the same poo poo my former bosses are doing wanting to kill new york city for being liberals who are only getting sick to undermine trump lmao

That map just makes West Virginia so much more impressive

yeah and it's almost as if the rural areas ALSO have higher rates of poverty and stuff which would make them less able to just gently caress off and stay home. it's weird, i'm starting to wonder if maybe there are a lot of social and political factors in play that AREN'T "everyone in the south is a stupid white republican who is doing this on purpose to be stupid, just like they always do because the south and everyone who lives there is inherently irredeemable"

Everyone being stupid white and republican is why there’s the social and political factors at play in the first place

Yet there are far fewer cases in those red areas. Why? Those red areas are more rural districts with a lower population density. The lockdown doesn't have to be as strict in those areas. New York was hit hardest because the population density is so high.

If people are disenfranchised then they are inherently not at fault for the social and political issues in the location, at least when it comes to most political issues. So maybe rephrase your terminology.

If the white republicans would punch up instead of down they could enact real change and make everyone better off but gotta have someone to look down on.

my whole point is that "the south" is not at fault for it, the people in charge are, and there is a constant tendency to erase the existence of people other than the people in charge when discussing these issues because everybody is so fond of using "the south" as a gloss for "the racist political conditions inflicted by the white ruling class of america, which has disproportionate effects in areas that are more black than white". but clearly i am failing to communicate effectively, and will now exit the discussion.

Remember that time yesterday when the US just outright paid cash for a planeload of masks that were destined to France?
Today, a shipment of 10,000 masks that had just arrived in Quebec got "mysteriously" re-routed to Ohio by DHL.
