    As a Minnesotan, I am very confused. Like, yes, we obviously have the rural red parts of the state that exist everywhere in the country, but our government and institutions are actually quite LGBTQ+ positive and supportive.

      Tell that to the trans people who get assaulted on a regular basis.

      I just used Minnesota as a random example because I have family there, but come to think of it, it’s a pretty fucking bigoted state overall. The small towns in southern Minnesota make most of my state seem progressive by comparison.
