I get what youre saying, but those regions will never improve without new blood. I ya can deal with the shit and aint in a vulnerable group id encourage it to a degree. Not every redneck is a frothing bigot and if even half of them are like my area most folks just kinda want to be left alone and will probably lynch the christo-fascists if they push their luck. Mind ya im in a particularly redneck part of southern California so somewhat different but the rule of thumb probably still stands.
