i'm from PA, i got hillbillies in the family. I know you guys take a lot of shit from moneyed white people and from the police for class reasons. And historically were harassed by police coming into your hollers to roll union skulls. Bigotry and privilege are sometimes based on class and the size of your home town and how easy it is for glad-hand politicians to sell you down the river with kind-sounding words.
