I’m in northern Florida and there is no leftist presence or really much poverty relief from what I have seen. There are some organizations out there of course, as I live near a major city. But it’s easy to fall into doomerism down here, particularly when sects of the left have branded it a lost cause. What are some ways we can help our communities

Regardless of race, they are not only friendly people who show a genuine interest in your life, but they are conscientious and don't do things that are noticeably rude or impolite. In places like NYC, the Midwest, and the West Coast, people are often rude to your face and have embarrassing social decorum. Children from the South are raised well and are taught to have a lot of respect for people.
I don’t really know how else to ask this. German natives flying the Nazi flag or having Hitler/Nazi statues isn’t controversial, it’s just not a thing. It seems like the majority of the German people want to distance themselves from that part of history (obviously) and make a separation between German heritage/flag, and Nazi memorabilia.
Why is flying the confederate flag/wearing it/confederate statues controversial in the U.S? I don’t understand the debate because it seems like most southerners are patriotic and so would want to fly the American flag, and not want anything to do with the confederate flag because it represents secession from the United States and slavery. So why do many insist on it being a positive part of heritage?
The human rights violations people are facing as they come to our southern border are atrocious, and women are subjected to some of the worst of those abuses. [TW: miscarriage, sexual abuse, death.] For example, pregnant women are facing unbelieveable pain, suffering, and loss due to the horrendous neglect and abuse they experience while in ICE and CBP detention centers, as shown in this article: OB-GYN Says U.S. Marshals Service Is Shackling Detained Pregnant Migrant. Predictably, this is leading to many miscarriages, as detailed here: Nearly 30 Women Have Miscarried While Detained by ICE Since 2017. Also, while we are trying to make progress with #metoo, sexual abuse towards migrant children is running rampant while also being ignored in what are finally being openly referred to as concentration camps.

Trans women are also dying at alarming rates while detained due in part to complete lack of medical care. You can read more about why that is happening here: Why Are Trans Women Dying in ICE Detention?
