What liberals need to understand about the rest of us
Hi, I'm a white working class man living in rural Minnesota. I just wanted explain for the liberals who just lost the election about myself and people like me. You see, we're not klan members or hicks or old prudes. We're just regular folks who have watched the world changing around us, and some of the changes aren't any good, for us or for America. For instance, have you heard the Honey Nut Cheerios bee lately? That is NOT his voice. Something is wrong with him. It's not any deeper, like a puberty thing, it's like somebody else's voice pretending to be the Honey Nut Cheerios bee. And it's disturbing.
And what about the Wendy's logo? It's completely different now. You can call us old-fashioned, but the word "Wendy's" on a Wendy's sign should have big boxy letters. In fact, I'd be proud to be called old-fashioned, just like those delicious square hamburgers are referred to on the side of the Wendy's by the city, that still had the correct Wendy's logo on it last time I drove by.

And, maybe city-folks were too busy to notice, but the stars on Twitter turned into hearts! I have a daughter, and she's the most important thing in the world to me, and I need to protect her from things like that. That's why I live where I do. That kind of stuff doesn't slide out here in the heartland, where the real down-to-earth Americans are.
So maybe it's time you stopped acting like you all know everything and actually stopped to listen. Because I know this isn't the Knuckles The Echidna I grew up with, and I'm pretty sure the same's true for you:
