And here I thought upstate Michigan was so welcoming.
Only if you're white.
Once you're north of Saint John's, you start seeing a lot of "fuck Biden" signs. My minority friends say racism is rampant up there, even in TC. I'm not surprised other forms of intolerance exist as well.
Even in the southern part of the state, you see those signs. Anywhere outside of urban sectors (and even in those there are places).
Luckily, my husband and I haven't run into any of that up north (even in the UP). But we're a mixed couple, so that may certainly be a contributor.
