    Maybe we’re looking for nuance where there isn’t any, and the majority of Maine residents are just hateful and racist.

      Maine residents are, as a whole, very nice people. Certainly a lot friendlier as a population than many other states I’ve spent time in. Calling them hateful and racist based purely on (by your own admission) their voting records is like saying the majority of US residents are MAGA because Trump got elected.

        Neat. I live in a Midwestern state, and people here are so nice and friendly there’s an expression about it.

        We’re also obviously hateful and racist though, because we keep voting for Trump and sending hateful, racist Republicans to Congress.
