Felt the same coming from GA. VT is so much like places in the South except for the lack of diversity, so instead of racism (which there still is a lot of) the classism is more apparent. Generally I think the people that think that VT isn't like the South or vice versa just haven't traveled enough. N Ga and parts of SC and NC are indistinguishable from here.

on top of that a lot of towns that used to be picturesque towns with nice restaurants and antique stores now look like drug dens and ghettoes. have you seen Bennington lately? it's sad. it used to be such a nice town. so many addicts, homeless people, and way too many FUCK BIDEN flags all over the place. i miss the old VT. i also lived in MS and SC for a total of a decade, those places didn't wholly reflect VT today, but I'm sure there are parts.

Vermont is classist as fuck. Go places in Europe where there is very little diversity as well and you will see the same level of classism on display.
