美国的地域歧视

有人的地方就有江湖;有差别的世界就有歧视。米国也一样。
在知乎上看到这个问题,某匿名用户的回答非常有喜感,主要有 7 点。转过来供自己参考和一乐:
  1. 东北部的人瞧不起其他所有人。因为美国东北是老工业基地,还有华尔街,有长青藤,很容易理解。就算是东北内部的话,新英格兰人民瞧不起扭腰暴发户,扭腰人民不喜欢泽西的吊丝们,基本上都是老富人瞧不起新富人,新富人瞧不起穷人。
  2. 北方的人瞧不起南方人,南方人瞧不起北方人。主要还是北方富人瞧不起南方穷人,南方穷人觉得北方有钱人都是傻逼,以及北方阴冷的天气让富人都变态了。华尔街有钱,whatever,我们有阳光……
  3. 中西部和西部州经常被各种调侃,包括 MN,ID,WY 等,基于的理由各异。推荐看一下 The Onion 出版的搞笑版美国地图和介绍,可怜的 MN 经常被拿来讽刺,主要原因是在湖区的几个州中明尼苏达算是最没有可说的(除了冷),Ohio 有 Cleveland,Illinois 有 Chicago,Michigan 有 Detroit,Wisconsin 有 Milwaukee,明尼有什么?双胞城么……
  4. 德州人民瞧不起其他所有人,其他所有人觉得德州的 Redneck 土。看 Youtube 上各种(就是那个著名的高富帅开跑车被开 truck 的德州屌丝围追堵截,然后高富帅亮家伙,屌丝就被吓跑),就知道了。看看 Austin 人民都被逼疯了,要 Keep Austin Weird。
  5. 加州人民共和国瞧不起其他所有人,临州的人也觉得加州人民都是 2B。请查看 CA 临州 Craigslist 上面各种二手车交易贴。 即便是加州人民共和国也是有内讧,北加的 IT 行业雅痞基友果断看不起南加的各种矫情的娱乐工业做着明星梦的餐厅服务生。
  6. Delaware 每次选举年都要被涮很多很多次(因为选举人票只有3票……),还有一个著名的无聊的笑话,就是 What Della wear? New Jersey!
转给 Liz 看,她说从某个程度来说是这么回事,「通常来说人们觉得南方人更愚蠢、更有偏见」(我怎么觉得这种想法才是偏见),不过现在其实没什么人在意。一些年纪大的人可能更在意、一些小心眼的人也可能更在意。
和中国情况差不多嘛。
中国有很多针对河南人和上海人的偏见,我认识这两个地方的人都不多,这些不多的人貌似都还不错,没什么让我不齿的。
这个是美国各地的「劣迹图」,原博客下边跟帖达 400 +,可见地域攻击在米国一样热闹.
