Agreed with both this and the parent comment. Because SHEESH. Also, things like racism and homophobia, gross as they are, are still not as simple as whether or not people say racist or homophobic things, or even enact racist or homophobic legislation.

I would really like to re-find the study I read that basically broke down race relations like this: Southerners, as a *general* trend (as in, not individuals but as an aggregate) are more likely to display overt racism (racial slurs and racist jokes, for example) but exhibit a much more distinct tolerance in their everyday lives, likely due to the large African-American population. Northerners are more like to exhibit aversive racism, or the subtle stuff that shows bias without the words or the violence.

I'm not arguing that aversive racism is better or worse than overt racism, just arguing that they are *both* racism, so saying Southerners are somehow racist and awful implies other people *aren't*, and that's denying a big, big problem on top of stereotyping a huge segment of the population.
