as someone in the united states, this "alabama is the backwards hick place for dumb yokels" thing is pretty annoying and classist.
What's your go to, Mississippi?
Thank God for Mississippi
Kentucky, personally. Incest ran so deep it turned that one family blue. The fugates IIRC.
Or Misery.... I mean Missouri.
You seem fun.
You don't
Alabama has some good shit, people just like to scapegoat
Also, historically that's way more of an Appalachian (and especially West Virginian) thing. Isolated mountain passes meant that for some families, they were the only people for miles. The Deep South is mostly flat plains and swamplands, thus they had less incest.
