I was born(1970), raised & have lived in the Deep BRONZE AGE South my entire life minus the years I was in the US Air Force the majority of which were spent in California! Upon leaving the USAF returned to the area of Georgia I was raised roughly a 30min car drive south of the ATL...And now 30yrs later almost everyone I graduated from High School with is your stereotypical Southern Christian Conservative! Over the last 20-30yrs this ideology has allowed them to become prime targets of the Conservative "Propaganda4Profit" Media Industry (FOX "News", RAGE Radio & Countless forms on cable, print, etc.,). This FACT has seriously changed people I grew up with they're extremely inFOXicated, loyal TRUMP CULT members & simply downright MEAN!!!
...Yes, many of these people were from racist families/churches but that disgusting mentality was slowly being pushed to the fringes & out of society! That was until Conservative Media came along picking & scratching at those slowly healing sores of Southern Racism FOR GOP POLITICAL GAIN & ESPECIALLY RATINGS/PROFIT!!! During the 8yrs of the 1st African American POTUS this effort was switched into overdrive so when TRUMP came on the scene with his disgusting rhetoric TRUMP empowered them all to feel perfectly comfortable not only being racist & xenophobic but simply outright MEAN & HEARTLESS to anyone & everyone they were told was an enemy by the DEAR LEADER TRUMP!
...I know people throw this term around but TRUMP has a 100% REAL CULT FOLLOWING & it is very very troublesome! Even if Trump loses in 2020 I fully expect him to unleash his brainwashed CULT on the country via claims the election was stolen or something very similar!!
