Born and raised Michigander checking in. There’s a LOT of cultural variation in the Midwest that people gloss over. You can find extremely liberal population centers all around the region. Chicago, Detroit, Ann Arbor, Madison, Lansing, Milwaukee, etc
Same in Oregon. Never seen a “don’t rape your children” bilboard or “don’t shake a baby” bilboard. I do however see a lot of bilboards telling me how a 14 day conceived baby (fetus) has eyes, a beating heart, nails, and maybe a job with current labor laws being pushed. It’s wild how you can outright lie about that shit on a bilboard.
I technically live in southern Illinois near St Louis and I’ve not seen incest sounds only intent ass anti abortion signs. None of which mention when a fetus becomes self aware.
I actually haven’t but I only leave the city after work. The most I’ve seen is churches blaming the pandemic and the climate on lack of faith. I try hard not to look at billboards die to how frustrating they can be.

Where are we considering “the Midwest” here? I ask because I grew up in northern Illinois, which is a much different Midwest from Kansas or Missouri.
EDIT: I originally typed Kentucky when my brain wanted to type Kansas

Minnesotan here. No incest signs. Lots of drunk driving signs. And, the occasional meth signs down in the SW of the state.
That’s just urban vs. rural.

It absolutely is… Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana—that’s all pretty quintessential Midwest.
Great lakes, I think you mean.
I think you mean the Great Lakes region is in the Midwest.
so what is wisconsin, illinois, indiana, michigan, and ohio general area wise???
That’s the Midwest, I’m not sure what West of the Mississippi is though. The plains?
