I think we need a term for when something in media is ripped of its Southern or Appalachian aspects because of or for fear of classist stereotyping

Best case examples I can think of Oak Ridge rarely being mentioned in relation to the Manhattan Project. People who talk about Oak Ridge mention Manhattan Projecr but people talking about Manhattan Project don't talk about Oak Ridge.

I'm thinking Northern-washing or Yankee-washing?

i snorted. "yankee-washing" i love that

as an aside, i honestly never even thought about that, how literally no one ever talks about oak ridge tn. lord. i guess i shouldn't be surprised, since a lot of people aren't even aware of something as surface to us as the coal wars.

anyway. i vote yankee-washing lmaooo all in favor say aye

Private military contractors have been developing electronic weapons, such as the one used to induce "Havana Syndrome", and testing it on innocent American civilians to blame on Russia and other plausible American enemies so they can drum up a use case for congress to sign off on the military throwing money at them, courtesy of Pentagon-private military kickback schemes. They test these weapons on civilians in the areas they develop them in, like where parts of the atom bomb was developed, in Oak Ridge, TN, and other areas nearish to the Pentagon with poor education and local economies reliant on the private military sector. The populations of these areas are usually prone to high rates of drug abuse and severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia and psychosis, due to the use of these weapons on the local population.

Quiet in Oak Ridge,

Japanese echoes resound,

no new bells ringing,

silence of the dead profound,

the monument in each town.

In Tennessee, I was placed into two different state contracted group home over $20 worth of mid grade cannabis and probation violations for home invasions actually done by upper class white junkies with politically connected parents. Once I had all my panels torn out of my car as soon as I crossed into Clinton from Oak Ridge while giving a black man a ride home by a sloppy roided out Clinton “drug task force”. They accused me of drug trafficking and said they knew I had just met my dealer, who I had just texted for a personal amount of pills, manufactured by an Israeli drug company, but never met, a son of another politically connected white man who was politically who also sold crack. They could only have eavesdropped on my text messages with spy tech Israel sold them in violation of the U.S. constitution and federal law. The group homes were ran by abusive fundamentalist cults with state contracts. Everyone I brought up the illegality of this to ignored everything I said. Tennessee is a racist gestapo communist Israeli owned shithole. Oh the irony of Republicans in a Republican state complaining about communism.
