I’m not sure I get it still, was his family rich when he was growing up? Southern Ohio is still pretty rural, it’s what brings the state to the right during most statewide votes.
I was in instacart driver. Some of the biggest orders to the nicest houses I went to were out in bumfuck missouri and Kansas . Just cows and Fields and then suddenly I’m delivering to a house that has its own gate with a radio and it’s own covered bridge over a small pond leading up to the house
There was a literal compound once. Some kind of ranch I can’t remember what they called it but with like maybe four hotel room type things. Completely gated. Shitload of horses.
You gotta get political news from more sources than here, this place is biased as hell
Appalachia is a geographic, socioeconomic, and cultural region of the united States
JD Vance claims to be as Appalachian as they come
JD Vance is from west of Cincinnati, well outside if Appalachia
JD Vance is a carpetbagging piece of shit
A carpetbagger is an opportunistic colonial entering the region of the south or Appalachia (context dependent) to make a quick buck exploiting the poor of the region through various forms of grift, theft, and violence
J D Vance is the Republican vice presidential candidate who got notoriety back in 2016 for his book Hillbilly Elegy about growing up in Ohio and escaping poverty (or something I haven’t read it). He is rich and some people criticize him for wearing eyeliner.
The picture is from the movie Zoolander when the titular male model returns to his home town to try and reconnect with his family and generally does a terrible job relating to them.
OP is comparing Vance’s distance from the people he claims connection with to a scene in Zoolander
I don’t get it. (Lemmy is my only source of political news)
Jd Vance is a rich guy trying to pretend he grew up poor and southern.
That wishes he was this fabulous

You’ll see that in Oregon. Middle of nowhere then off in the distance you’ll see the compound.
There is a house by me that has a foot ball field in the backyard a pond and a running track.
Who builds a football field field in the backyard?

I was exaggerating a little. I guess I should say I only get my political memes from Lemmy. Every other source I follow is quite serious
Good. Good good good. That’s. A relief, tbh
Tldr: watch Zoolander, not Hillbilly Elegy
