I feel you. Whenever I mentioned where I'm from it's always either "Oh, y'all so crazy and stupid 🤪" or "If you don't like it, just move🙄". Like how narrow minded and naive can you be? It's almost as if others like to downplay and ignore the work you put in to fighting for basic human rights.
Thanks. Yep, that's how it is alright.
I've thought about and half-planned to move, but with my house, good job, and family here, it's a tough thing to do. I've since settled on sticking it out and fighting to make things better like you said.
