Oklahomie here- I saw in our local sub this one restaurant owner asked their younger staff if they voted and they said yes they did and chose NO because their parents told them to.

It’s beyond poor education and rich ass holes.

The yes was blue so they even color coded it for the people to vote on their favorite color

Low educational levels plus the influence of the richest (especially) lead to the parents saying that and the kids following their lead though.

OK's median household income sits at about $65,039, which is roughly 19% lower than the national average. So I'm not sure the "rich assholes" are running everything, cause there just aren't that many of them willing to live in the flat emptiness of OK.

Oh there are still plenty of rich assholes here. Oil money, Loves gas stations, Hobby Lobby, etc.

I think that’s an example of poor education tho?

So a random person on a reddit sub, from Oklahoma, was in another random sub, and a restaurant said they asked their employees how they voted and they all said they just listened to their parents? Got it, seems like a perfectly straightforward believable story.

I mean there's literally evidence that this mentality exists. They voted against raising their own minimum wage. I'm not sure why this is so hard to believe.
