I equate it a bit to being a parent. Sometimes you just got to have some tough love to correct things. Seattle is to fixated on being nice. Nice isn’t going to correct things.
Seattle isn’t nice. In fact, I’ve lived all over the country, and the most entitled, arrogant, rudest people in the country are in Seattle, WA.
Period.
This place is evil. Beautiful country, but the people here are for the most part evil.
