The south is gross and racist because of transplants lol, how does dax come up with this stuff?
Yeah he's used that one before, amaze
Yup, it's transplants from Wisconsin that love the Confederacy
No, the point you obtuse dumbass. Is that all the supposedly “enlightened” transplants flock to their white enclaves and set up their own little exclusively white townships in the middle of areas that before they arrived were very integrated.
Do you want to have a serious conversation about the push/pull factors that make people decide where to live?
I'm sure that correlation to the whole "black belt thing" is just there because those people are too lazy to move to new areas am i rite!
Lol, don’t start bringing your little meaningless catch phrases in now.
It’s real simple, why is there the great migration South? The transplants are purposely increasing segregation (and urban sprawl) and now the gentrification issues are mounting in the urban areas. Because the wealthier white empty nesters are selling their white flight houses in the burbs and buying new condos downtown. Pushing out the less wealthy indigenous population.
You’re clueless. Don’t even start with your bullshit.
Verifiable sociological trends based in reality are "catch phrases."
Protip: Segregation never left for transplants to "re-start," as you claim.
I never said they restarted. But LOL, Kansas/Missouri (for example) is home to two of the most racially divided metroplexes (demographically) in the United States.
Good for Kansas?
And your whole thesis has been the south isn't bad until those whites from up north came down. Pfff acting like the south was all hunky dory since 1865 till the babyboomers started retiring.
Not true. The whole “thesis” has been while the South moderated and became more integrated along came the transplants and their white flight burbs . . . and now Southern cities have a growing gentrification problem, driven by? White folks, many of them of the transplant variety, and many of them supposedly progressive in political leanings.
You’re at least 3 laps down here.
okay buddy.
(should we recognize that the south only "moderated" when jackbooted federal thugs broke up the reigning community protection groups?)
Sure, can we admit it took/takes Federal Courts to (kind of) break up segregation in “enlightened” land, and white flight suburbia has effectively defeated any real attempt to fully segregate schools, to the point people have basically given up?
We now have the issue of urban millineal/white gentrification, and then flight (or private school) once children arrive.
I can agree to part of it. You have a bigly blind spot for the rampant erosion of civil rights across the board though, see your comments on voter ID, education access and funding, and a few other issues. Lets not make it seem like the South was actually Reconstructed like it should have been. Sure white flight and gentrification are major issues (mostly defacto), but they don't hold a candle to the same old tricks from state legislatures using de jure power to keep people in their place. The fact there is a verified "black belt" with its legacy reaching directly back to slavery should be enough for you to back off this imported white flight being a major cause of issues and not icing on a rich slice of chocolate cake with two scoops on the side.
Once again your left to flail about regarding obvious things that are already understood.
The simple fact that you by implication are saying that gerrymandering is strictly a southern thing is laughable. Again, reconcile yourself that right there in the Midwest are two of the most racially divided metropolitan areas in the United States (for example). That Boston is “the most racist city in the United States” (for example).
I’ll have to find it again but the other day I just read a NYT’s op-ed discussing the black migration . . . South, out of NYC, and Northeastern cities.
Eye test don’t lie. Transplants to the South filling white flight suburbs, establishing their own little “towns” on the golf course and disrupting local highly integrated communities with their money and influence . . . and guard gates. Again, now Southern cities face urban core gentrification issues driven almost exclusively by white folks, of which a vast majority are transplants.
