The blue bubble cluelessness and lack of self awareness is really quite breathtaking. I'm in a difficult position because both my work and one of my main hobbies puts me in the constant company of urbanized woke-folk who assume, because I have advanced degrees, have taught at the university level and worked in high-tech fields, and at least appear to be literate and have 'evolved tastes,' that I am one of them. So they say insulting stuff in front of me, assume I share their contempt for "People of WalMart" and "Florida Man" and Christian cake-bakers and J.K. Rowling. When in fact my roots and my continuing predispositions are rural and blue collar and the targets of their mockery and snotty superiority are *my* family, *my* friends, and *their* betters.
