I hate this. It's so needlessly divisive. There are allies everywhere. Stop writing them off because you're bigoted against them. There's all kinds of people in every area. Sure, rural people tend to be more conservative, because they live in isolated areas without exposure to new ideas. They aren't all this way though. Be welcoming of anyone you can find who agrees with you. These people are far more valuable than almost anywhere else.
It's the inverse of the psychotic belief that cities are terrifying places where people are getting stabbed or shot in the streets on a constant basis
