I definitely agree with everything you said, but I would say my distaste of rural people mostly is due to detesting their ignorance. City people are far more cosmopolitan, largely because we actually are around all types of people all the time, and being cosmopolitan is something that I think is a valuable trait in people. Rural people often lack that, largely just because rural areas are more homogeneous culturally, which isnt really their fault. However, what is their fault is that their lack of cosmopolitan attitude is generally what leads to them abusing or harming people that are a different race, sexuality, gender ideology, etc.
I cant think of an aspect of city people that is equivalent
I speculate that one equivalent is that city people tend to be more accustomed to manipulation and generally interacting with other humans, especially strangers. Your average rural person probably never meets strangers in a typical day. So if you’re a rural person in the city it’d be unbelievably overwhelming, forcing you into a defensive posture.
It also marks you as a rube. You might be perfectly intelligent and well educated but you’re vulnerable to being taken advantage of.
City people may come off as cold, manipulative, scary because of it. Unscrupulous people can take advantage of you more easily. You’re a mark.
