    Oklahoma the prototypical red state shithole.

    Where if the black community becomes peacefully prosperous, it’s too much for the numerous white inferiority-complex shitkickers to take, they boil and fester like an infection until one night they swarm like a biblical plague of locusts to burn and raze the black community to the ground.

    Hollow and ignorant, lazy and angry white madness is synonymous with republican-voting states.

      Most of my experience in Oklahoma was in Norman, a fantastic college town. When I would go outside of the Norman/Moore/OKC area to visit the families of my fellow students, it was surprising how much and how quickly things changed.

      I mean, I know the dichotomy between rural and urban is everywhere in this nation, but it seemed more stark somehow.
