There is long history of exploiting poor white people in the south. If you are a poor white kid with a southern accent, there is significant baggage there that a California middle class kid does not have.

pfft there are poor white people all over the country, but consistently liberals focus only on white southern culture, because deep down all of your problem really comes from that 1990's Marilyn Manson angst of being told to go to church as a white kid growing up in the suburbs and to not paint your fingernails black.
go to riverseide, its a huge whtie population of poor people, orange, outside PDX, basically ALL of northern California, all the way up to Seattle.
anywho, the truth is all socialists are just still upset about how they were treated as goths in the 90s and that's why you have so many hangups on atheism and Christianity.
