I'm need everyone shitting on Arkansas to get real humble real fast since if you multiplied their COVID death count by a hundred you wouldn't even be at half the count in NYC

Be kind and show respect for people who aren't you or your friends. People and regions are different.
btw, if you multiplied the population of Arkansas by 100, you'd have close to the population of the US.

This isn't a "they are small, so their death count is small" thing. This is a "for whatever reason, they simply have not been hit very hard" thing.
The smug cruelty of our elite class toward the south in this season has been stomach turning.

They sneer and mock and very nearly wish for the deaths of those dumb hick southerners even as southern states continue to manage the crisis really quite well.
