I live in northern Mexico, so my culture is heavily influenced by both American and Mexican culture of course!!! But if I ever visit the United States, specifically the southern states. Would I feel different in those states? Thank you.

So much for my hope of going one day without reading "BoTh SiDeS aRe BaD!" and it's not even 7am yet.

Have you physically been to california?

The place is a goddamn shithole. Sheetmetal lining the sides of their freeways. Their beach outhouses are literally filled to the rim with diarrhea, toilet paper, and garbage (not an exaggeration, it had a convex miniscus). Their drivers are some of the most aggressive I've ever had the displeasure of being around. 90% of the people there I interacted with are fake as fuck, and the only ones that weren't were people I knew who had moved there (who were also the only reason I went there to begin with).

I have driven the entire state. The only good part about California is the redwood forest, and i want to annex that into Oregon if it ever becomes an option.

I dont hate california for political reasons, everything else about it is what sucks.
