What does blue/urban America see in the Democrats?

There is where you lose people like me who are rural, conservative Republicans.

We care about people as well.
But rant mode off, we care about people every bit as much as your side does. Every.bit.as.much.

No you don’t.

You care about yourself, people close to you, and people like you.

We can read your posts. You are incapable of caring about or even understanding people who aren’t like you. Furthermore, you project that onto us.

It simply isn’t true.

And sure AIDS killed tons of people in Africa. But that’s “over there” not here. Call it racist or xenophobic, but that is how people react to things. You ever listen to the radio and hear that an earthquake hit and killed 3,000 people and you lean in and hear, “in Pakistan” and you change the channel? If they had said “in California” you would have said “oh my God!” and read all of the articles when you got home. It is not because you hate Pakistanis or brown people in general. People feel what hits their own backyard.
