Remember all the talk of "racist rednecks in flyover country" after the Trump election and "uneducated small Britain in rural towns" after brexit? To me that crystallized the utter contempt they have for the blue collar working class, not something you'd get out of the real left.

As a rural dwelling liberal progressive, I sure felt shit on by all sides. I have never felt so much hate from people I dont know about views I dont hold. Its absolutely insane.
