    While certainly not all southern people are bigoted rednecks, and bourgeois motherfuckers definitely live in the suburbs, and while it pisses me off that redneck is currently divorced from its original socialist meaning, I feel that many leftists are too easily willing to deny that many rednecks are just as bad if not worse than the stereotypes people say.

      I think the framing is important, the OP was saying they hate “low IQ rednecks” as if the smart city crackers are better.

      Like, hate 'em for the right reasons, not the same reasons the classist, ableist, ivory tower shitlibs do.
