Why Seattle SUCKS!
How closed-minded the people are.
There's this idea that Seattleites have stuck in their head. It's the idea that everyone in Seattle is very openminded. This hasn't been the case, in my personal experiences. Seattleites are very accepting of you as long as you prescribe to their brand of far left wing ideology. And don't you disagree with them! Overall, I've found Seattle to have a very groupthink "sheeple" mentality. Everybody basically has the same opinion on every social issue and people are often very insulting towards those with dissenting opinions.
Example. Try telling a Seattleite that you don't approve of President Obama. Once in a conversation regarding politics, I mentioned how I disapproved of the stimulus package and reckless spending. I backed up my viewpoint and I thought I made a pretty good argument. Apparently what the two Seattleites I was talking to heard was "I'm a small town hick and I hate Obama because he's black." Anyways, the conversation immediately turned from politics to how basically anyone that disagrees with Obama is a racist. I don't know. Perhaps the Seattleites just weren't able to comprehend my alternate viewpoint.
Like I said, Seattle is full of sheeple. It's very conservative, in a liberal kind of way. If that makes any sense..
