I think that’s one of the big reasons conservatives hate college. When young people interact with people of different socioeconomic backgrounds, religious beliefs, etc, they realize that those people aren’t the two dimensional boogeymen that they’ve been made out to be. They begin to realize that blind hatred is the problem, not diversity.
This has always read to me as “when you’re around a bunch of different people you realize how the same we are”
Eidunno. Curious what others think of that. It is very true, the rural and the conservatism.
