Jesus! Where did you live in the mid-west? I lived in Western Michigan for 4 years and never encountered what you did. If anything, I found the political climate much more balanced and respectful.

Ohio.

It's gotten worse and worse over the years. It used to be a tolerant place to live but over a few decades it has turned into a pretty negative area. But this isn't just Ohio, the entire region has turned angry, xenophoic and inward. It has grown increasingly conservative and self destructive in many ways.
