Southern abstinence-only education resulting in ludicrous amounts of teen-pregnancy and dependence on the first man available.

my god you're right. it's astounding how subordinate women are down there. the life goal of around 80% OR MORE of those women is get pregnant before 20 and marry. it's sad and compounds a lot of problems. it's a swath of population the world would be better off without.

the rabbit hole is so deep down there. is it the oppressive religion that leads them all to be so problematic for society? maybe it's the shitty education? maybe it's the oppressive patriarchy? maybe the women want that hellish life as much as the men? is it the conservative culture?

in the end, you just kinda have to say to yourself "i don't know and i don't care. burn it all down"

I'm in the same place, I managed to escape and I see them trying to corrupt and destroy the rest of the country.

It's their elite, we needed to give the slave owners to their slaves and walk away, instead we kept them out of power for 10 years then let them go back as if nothing happened and got Jim Crow for 100 years, and brutal corruption as they took every dollar of federal money not nailed down.

Until the southern good ol boy network is destroyed they will try to destroy America because they see themselves as the only true Americans.
