Stop driving me to support my implacable foes.
BTW his phrase is from Proverbs, and apt, especially from James.
Yeah, I know, the source is "biased" - but which sources are not? Anyway, I think this guy has a great argument. Living in Texas as I have for decades, I can attest that such worldviews as the author notes are widespread.

a cut from the article:
" For us “coastal elites” who understand evolution, genetics and science, nothing we say to those in flyover country is going to be listened to because not only are we fighting against an anti-education belief system, we are arguing against god. You aren’t winning a battle of beliefs with these people if you are on one side of the argument and god is on the other. No degree of understanding this is going to suddenly make them less racist, more open to reason and facts. Telling “urban elites” they need to understand rural Americans isn’t going to lead to a damn thing because it misses the causes of the problem."
