Wth is Mississippi so high on this list? I thought it was supposed to be an unbearable shithole of a state?

Mississippi ranks first in poverty and 50th in everything else. This map can’t be right

I find it interesting that you feel so confident calling Mississippians stupid when it’s one of the Blackest states in the US and one of the poorest. Are poor and Black people just dumb to you?

It literally ranks #43 in education in the US.

And I know nothing about race percentages in most of the states; I was under the impression Mississippi was mostly white. But go ahead, call me racist. Lmao

So touchy about a fuckin joke. As if no one else says states are stupid.

Yeah, my daughter called me out on this. It never occurred to me, which was really stupid on my part.

Right. That's hard to believe. However, I have been to Mississippi three times in the last couple of years. And driving around a lot. I see more confederate flags in Maine than I saw in Mississippi or Louisiana.
