mocking and quoting bigots I've seen so far

:liberalism: turns to pit "you know it's hexbear when the tankie pronoun parade shows up to force pictures of pigshit in front of you!"* real quick

[*this is paraphrased, I can't remember the exact original quote]

Or "so suddenly I'm Hitler because i think people calling themselves Fae gender is dumb"

Or "why should i need to learn a new set of different pronouns for every person I meet?" (this followed two comments after "I'm literally not a transphobe, I work with plenty of trans colleagues who feel safe around me" (average lib being scratched in real time by having to acknowledge neopronouns))

.
All of these shitheads claimed to be allies when they started interacting but our brilliant pronoun tags immediately made them out themselves as the bigots they are who only pretend to be allies because it looks bad to be openly and proudly transphobic

TL;DR: pitmaduro-katana-1hexbear-non-binary

We have a local group of old lesbians here that drive around main Street in their trucks at the end of each pride month honking horns and flying flags and are generally well received. We also have one of the gayest downtown service industries in the region and I love it

It's awesome that the local biker bar employs a trans comedian and none of the chuds out here care, they all love her lol

Definitely a weird dichotomy to live in. The intersection of small southern town hospitality and general latent conservatism with very progressive and similarly friendly leftist folk. We've got it good out here for now, especially because we can openly discuss communism and unionization everywhere and no one bats an eye.

damn wherever you are sounds pretty dope

It's definitely way more tolerable than other places. There's still issues with chuds, but they tend to avoid the town center and focus on huffing each others farts and fumes in strip mall parking lots about 10 miles outside of town

Left friendly small town sounds like the perfect place, particularly if the chuds are too scared to go try to stir shit up in the town center. Enjoy it!
