niggers

plenty of niggers in the south

racially diverse demographics and high concentration of liberal arts schools.

Immigrants and

And they all vote Democrat. Look at the 2016 election map by county.

Cities are like gravity to stupid people.

America doesn't have a single urban center that is more than 40% white.

>racially diverse demographics.
ok. so why do places with racially diverse demographics tend to vote blue? also, the oppoisite.
>high concentration o lib arts colleges
i think thats a result of the effect rather than a cause. maybe it creates a loop.

Rural and suburban retards vote against their interest

clean air

Because of rural and suburban retards.

(((Niggers)))

>their interest
TRANSLATION: Gibmedats paid for by tax dollars that coincidentally aren't available to rural and suburban whites, but sure as fuck are available to niggers and mudslimes

correct

is this accurate? where is it from? what does it really prove?

Fpbp
/bread

Wealthy urban liberals want to help the less fortunate without having to deal with them

Poorer rural Republicans have to deal with the less fortunate and are sick of them

Blacks want free shit

literally this

>what does it really prove
Hitler was right.

I don't have a source, but it conforms to general trends and there hasn't been a state I've checked that turned out to be inaccurate.

Big cities are full of parasitical darkies and rural areas are full of self-reliant whites. Also usurious Jews congregate in urban areas, they avoid rural areas.
Big cities only produce debt, financial instruments, media propaganda, conspicuous consumption and crime while the rural areas are where all the farms and factories are.

I wonder what they have in common...

It's not in my interests to be taxed to pay for gibs to niggers and spics or support anyone who pushes open borders or internationalism.
Suburbanites and ruralites don't benefit from the dysgenic welfare state the left wants to erect or the globalist market they and neoliberal capitalists want to impose on everyone.

Rebublicans favor the republic, democrats favor democracy.
What do you think?

while dumb niggers vote solid democrat for the last 50 years and still live in virulent shitholes.

today I met a beautiful greet woman. she told me that she used to work at starbucks, where she had many regulars who would come to see her. she worked there because they provided their employees with healthcare. one day a manager came who took away her healthcare, so she left the company. her husband has heart issues. the same thing happened to her at various jobs until obamacare came along. she used that, drove cabs and was able to get by decently again. she's going to school for something i forgot.
did she deserve to lose her healthcare? was she going for gibmedats?
I think large cities vote democrat because in cities, where one feels the overbranching capitalism, and everything everywhere is hell, people hate it.
i grew up in rural colorado.

Why didn't her husband work? Why would they live somewhere they can't afford?

he is too sick. they can barely afford to live anywhere, and they cant afford healthcare even in the cheapest apartment. they have some family here, who are in the same boat. her sister owns a restaraunt or something.

Why are the mojority of scientists, especially theoretical and plasma physisits, blue?

Rural areas want to be left alone while cities want rural people to be enslaved (cities want farms and country without the rural people) [crush the urbanite]

Easy access to gibs, and a more tangible result of government spending

Living in the city
>Get parks and bicycle paths and muh programs

Living in rural areas
>The only thing you see from the state are taxes

>government gibs

you have a point!

Probably a combination of factors. Rural areas generally have poorer services, and thus promote a mentality of self-reliance while in the city you usually just hire someone to do it for you. It probably also has to do something about perceived poverty: Cities are population dense, as well as tend to have many social services such as homeless shelters and the like. This results with a high amount of visibly impoverished individuals, both because it benefits them to be there (services) and simply that you have more poor people in a smaller area.

Basically city dwellers end up seeing more poor people, while having access to more services, and thus may be more inclined to think those services should be forcefully extended. Rural folk don't give a shit because they don't have many services to begin with, and usually grew up fixing their own shit.

theoretical physica and plasma physica depend on massive multibillion dollar grants for research. they depend equally on venture capitalism and government reserves.

Rural and suburban retards

>drumpf btfo

>live in expensive city
>no marketable skills
>expect government subsidies to continue your lifestyle

Why? This really doesn't make sense. Just move somewhere you can afford to live.

the problem persists in all cities. companies will not pay her enough to both feef and medicate her family and they wont give her food or medicine. its not like she can just buy a farm.

Nobody is suggesting she buy a farm, just that she find somewhere that the cost of living is low enough that she can afford to live.

there is nowhere in america where she can afford to live and medicate her husband. thats why anybody in compton wants free healthcare. there is just no other way for them to get it.

>unschooled work pays horrible

What a shocker!

People in country areas learn how to contribute to society on their own. People in the city prefer to be a specialised cog in a machine.

>getting obangobucks in menial service jobs

Please don't make shit up retard.

Move out of Compton. It's a hell hole anyway. There is somewhere in America she could afford to live. Urban centers have notoriously high costs of living.

Its rather amusing that Democrats bemoan low wages when their policies are responsible for the low wages in the first place. The flood of illegal immigrants into the labor market has depressed wages across the board since 1980. The illegals cause a ripple effect across the labor pool. Those who had their job taken by illegals move to other occupations, whereby the original holders of those jobs are now faced with increased competition, which lowers wages, which forces workers into other occupations, which increases... You see where this is going?

so how the fuck is anyone supposed to afford college? with loans? loans are the only way she can go to school. she took one and is studying something buisness related. it could never pay off, and now she is in debt with no healthcare and a son and she's driving a cab.

And these areas are blue. Rural nigger areas are blue.

He said by county, you retard. The southern states go red because the areas without niggers vote republican en masse and the areas with niggers aren't densely populated enough to make up for that.

everyones a cog, farmer and cashier.
pueblo, colorado is where this happened. good luck finding a cheaper place to live, especially one with a job for her.
fuck illegal immigrants, but thats only a small part of this picture.

You don't go to a 4 year university for a generic degree like business unless you have money to start something or already have prospects.

Go to a community college and get a degree in something like dental assistant, or a trade school for a skilled labor job. Something that actually pays now and is always in demand. From there you can save up to go get a bachelors or shoot for a masters and improve your prospects. The idea that you have to go to a 4 year university to get a job is inherently flawed and is half responsible for the rampant degree inflation epidemic we have right now where bachelors degrees generally aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

She made a bad decision but it's not all her fault, the entire student loan business is predatory, and the politicians don't care about the value of degrees because they can tout increased college graduation figures.

I'm not sure what to tell you. She chose to bear a child with an invalid without educating herself for a career. The freedom to make choices is also the freedom to fail.

You can concoct whatever theory you want for the urban voter leaning towards the Democratic party, but the undeniable truth is that the cause is race: niggers and hispanics overwhelmingly vote Democrat.

Rural areas go red because they work hard all of their lives to make an easier time when they retire, so they don't have any time to delve into tumblr shit, and they vote red because ot supports their interests of having a racially homogenous society, and a society that praises hard work over leeching NEETs.

Cities go blue because they're overloaded with benefits schemes, liberal arts colleges, and is stuffed from ass to mouth in foreigners who all indulge in the previously mentioned statements. Cities are also massive population centres, and thus attract more individuals who seek to spread Marxist bullshit from their Ivy League university in Commiefornia, instead of their own merots and achievements from working at a farm to support the backbone of every country. They also vote blue, as it aids their benefit programs, and the blue ideals support the ideals of a "diverse" society. People in cities that do work are drawn into seeking attention by cutting their penises off, or claiming to have PTSD from seeing a slice of ham in their vegan goji bowl, so they can then leech money off of Patreon for absolutely no effort.

That's not all the red states though is it? Cherry pick much?

>cherry pick much

Surely the irony doesn't escape you...

Desu senpai.

Oh I understand what you mean. but it doesn't let you off the hook.

r/K selection.
No enemies
A shit ton of resources
No parental care for children
High divorce rate

gibs

>here's my sad story, now gibs me dat

For what do I need to be let off the hook for? The majority of the poorest counties are in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Kentucky. The first three have massive populations of blacks and have unusually high numbers of counties, which distorts the socioeconomic picture. Kentucky, and the rest of Appalachia, have been suffering since long before Republicans took control of those states.

Your statistic is amusing in its capability to distort reality, but the reality is that even these areas are better than South Chicago, Compton, and Harlem. All of which "benefit" from high cost of living and counties large enough to also count the white suburbs of these areas among the population of that county.

>the undeniable cause is...
well, fuck you.

I'm impressively coherent for this being my third day without sleep.

I'm rural and I've never seen an EBT card. We work and support ourselves.

Most of the country's mentally ill population are clustered in urban areas.

>Rural and suburban retards vote against their interest
yes, we vote against welfare because we don't need it.

perhaps being a waitress was a poor career choice.

Because a city is like a regular echo chamber with ten million amplifiers in it

Is Wyoming /our state/ ?

Big cities are shitholes filled with immigrants who want gibmedats and democrats will give it to them.

Seriously. look at the demographics of any cosmopolitan city and compare ethnicity with income.

Why of all people Asians vote blue?

>there is nowhere in america where she can afford to live
really? my house payment is $280/month and my yard is so big it takes 6 hours to mow with a 72 inch mower under a 39hp tractor. Anyone paying more than $400/m for housing is an idiot.

Asians have a very collectivist culture, I presume. They're socially conservative, like most Southern blacks, so they belong more in the Republican party, but the Democrats have sufficiently scared them away with the race bullshit.

Conservative policies place the burden of improving society on the individual which is easy for rural people who know everyone in their town and are willing to take an hour out of their day to help a neighbor through a predicament.

Leftist policies take the burden of improving society of of the individual and places it on the collective which is easy for city people who live 5 feet away from 8 people that they'll never talk to and frankly don't actually care about but they don't have to because they only contribute pennies per year to the less fortunate while bitching and moaning about how millionaires are so greedy and don't pay their fair share.

There's a phenomenon in psychology/sociology that proves people won't react to an emergency if other people are also witnessing it happen, but they would react if they were the only ones. This is how leftist policies work. "We want more money for dem programs" "oh okay who's going to pay for it?" "I dunno but I'm sure someone will. Oh nobody wants to contribute, even me, hmmm... well those rich people seem to have a lot of money, that doesn't seem very fair for some reason"

High population disseminates ideas better while at the same time allowing people to better find others to agree with novel ideas. Put simply.
>Be a transcommunist muslim
>Live in big city
>Find a group for transcommunist muslims in your city
>Meet up and discuss ideas
>Plan rallies and shit since you all live together
>Discuss your ideas with people you pass throughout the day
>Even by word of mouth you can easily spread your idea to millions in a few months easily

>Be a transcommunist muslim
>Live in small town
>Try to spread your ideas
>People laugh at you
>Soon become known as that weird tranny to the entire town
>Your ideas die with you

Not my statistic. The Republicans manage those economies and have for quite some time. Where's the turn around? That's the line used against Obama. Own it.

You also forgot Texas and S Dakota.

>the Republicans manage those economies

The statistics are completely misleading. $13,000 in rural Kentucky goes alot farther than $13,000 in Compton. If anyone were to pick where they'd like to live, it's clear where they would choose.

Like this?

Rents expensive, other people's money is free from my perspective. The blue politicians will gill give me more of your shit at only a small fee to you.

Probably because big cities and small towns have different issues plaguing them. Gun violence a big issue in your county? It goes blue. Manufacturing jobs leaving the country in your small town? Vote red. If Democrats actually solved problems, they wouldn't keep getting voted in.

where the fuck you at?

>If Democrats actually solved problems, they wouldn't keep getting voted in.
The same can be said about Republicans. :^)

Statistics in general can be used for bias agendas depending on the angle one adopts. However, you have given me pause to reflect on the standard of living adjustment. That opens up a whole new can of worms. For the record I would never willingly move to Compton.

Besides the standard of living adjustment, you must account for county size. For example, both Chicago and LA are cities that fit within a single county. Both have many millions of people and many dangerous areas within them that are ravaged by poverty. These counties don't look as poor because their poor are hidden within large populations.

Meanwhile, Buffalo County, SD, the poorest county, has a mere 2,000 citizens. Wilcox County, AL, the second poorest, has 11,000. There is no room to hide their poor, and it's certainly not disputable that these 2,000 or 11,000 people are better off than the worst areas in Chicago or LA of a similar population size.

Then you can add in cost of living adjustments and the picture tilts even more. Then you can add in other things like crime rates, health, and social mobility to see which areas have the best standard of living.

Overall, Democrats hold a commanding 11 point lead among those making less than 30k a year and they had absurd leads among every minority racial demographic.

dude, l.a. has many many counties

It's just LA County. Perhaps there are suburbs on the outskirts, but LA County is geographically gigantic and has a larger population than that of 42 individual states.

Much appreciated. I'll try and remember to lead with "care to elaborate" in these situations.

It really depends on what you consider rural. The left likes to talk about red states like they all resemble the sticks and hollers shown on tv shows like justified.
That's not true though. Most rural areas are simply small towns right off of interstate turn off or stuated off the highways between larger commercial districts.

This is actually where the majority of normal wealthy people live. There's more than one million millionaires in America and most do not live fancy lives. They are like my parents neighbors.

They own a nice upper class house, a handful of higher end cars, a nice RV, and a few vacation homes. They owned a few car dealerships before retiring early.

That's in a small middle class town off the interstate in the south and they aren't that unusual.

Plenty of upper middle class people who own small businesses live in Trump country and they vote red for any number of reasons with one of the top ones being it's simply in their economic interests.

Exactly, suffer today for a better tomorrow.

Go to sleep already

Get em.

...

Look at Jacksonville for example. Too many blacks come in and the white people move out to Middleburg. Then they move farther out. Then they move farther out.

A majority of white people who lived on jacksonville 15 years ago and still live in the area now live in the woods outside of it, and in the gated living thats out of welfare range.

Easy for you to say, you don't have a €100 billion bill to pay.

because the Dems welfare programs mostly benefit people in the inner city, while the dying blue collar of rural America slaves away to earn it for them

Red states are subsidised in tax dollars by richer, coastal blue states. Red staters are literally the worst welfare queens.

>Republicans are welfare queens

>Red states are subsidised in tax dollars by richer, coastal blue states. Red staters are literally the worst welfare queens.
Democrats in red states are subsidised in tax dollars by richer republians in coastal blue states. Democrats in red states are literally the worst welfare queens*

Intelligent people tend to congregate in large cites, due to the efficiencies, conveniences, and diversity afforded by a high population density. They vote in pragmatic ways, going for the candidate who will provide the most benefit and fewest problems overall.

Stupid and uneducated people are terrified by diversity and flee to the countryside. They have no comprehension of the issues at hand and vote instead for whoever promises to get rid of the scary brown people.

This is why there should be a test before anyone is allowed to vote.

If you want to know the truth... it is simply because people in red areas are happy with their lives and want to protect them, and people in blue areas are unhappy and thus don't want to vote for candidates that promise to preserve their way of life.

"Based blacks"

Liberals are herd animals.
