First off fuck you.

Fuck you and your hatred while throwing a hissy fit over people hating others.

Listening to this made me roll my eyes at your petty, ill informed, rant over and over. I made it to five minutes and couldn't take it anymore so who knows what you said in that last bit cause I won't waste my time to hear anymore of your accusations.

I'm a redneck and your generalization is bullshit. I'm not a fuckin hillbilly. Yes there is a difference. Hillbillies are the backass stupid racists. Rednecks hate them just as much as your asshole self does. Rednecks are southern folk, owners of trucks and plows, they are the ones that prefer camping to partying, accents are thick but they are smart. Farmers know very well about how science is intertwined with their livelihood and they own lots of land and equipment (one piece of which can cost over a quarter of a million dollars) We say y'all and fixin to but we aren't stupid. We wear boots, Stetsons, and guns on our belts but you can be sure we hold doors open for anyone and we say hello to strangers.

Common sense is VERY important (and we as rednecks know how to do so much more than city slickers when it comes to life and nature) but no one I know is trying to say that we shouldn't listen to doctors or scientists when it comes to in general things. A few are anti vaxxers but really we call them hippies not rednecks.

Evolution. Oh sweetie that steps into religion and so many more people believe the world was created by a god and it isn't just rednecks. Stop trying to act like that is just our culture. Which you ranted about religion I think but honestly I stopped listening because of how stupid it was. As if religion was a redneck thing...

Education. Um just gunna say that my sister is getting her degree (currently a senior) at Texas A&M (Agriculture & Mechanics) in Geoscience. She is looking to protect the environment and shit ya know. She is contemplating going to law school instead to become an environmental lawyer. Both of my parents went to college on their GI bill because they were soldiers defending this fuckin country. My dad was the biggest redneck you could have met.

Pride- fuck you everyone in America does that! Rednecks are farmers and feed the fuckin country I find that pretty damn important. Talk to someone in New York city and they will refer to America as 'we' just like anyone else in everyday America.

Hatred. I've already told you that is the hillbillies that are the racist pricks. We see them and their backward ways as embarrassing. They are the ones marrying their cousins. Honestly we make fun of Alabama and Arkansas as the marrying your cousins type and Mississippi is the one that has the rep for poor education. Texas has good education and great charm. Our biggest flaw is the conservative side but that isn't anything special to Texas. Our financial situation here is also pretty good. Most statistics put us in the top ten or top five.

Case in point... you are a judgmental, hypocritical asshole that lumps us good natured rednecks with racist hillbillies.

Always saw Texas as more cowboy than redneck.

I love rednecks.

Obviously you get some bad ones, but you get that in all groups of people.

Nice! I currently live in a town of 3000 and might be moving to a town of 541.

Are the bad one's necks more red than the good ones?

Kinda casts doubt on your understanding of rednecks, seems to me.

Perhaps you'd be better off letting people define themselves?

I don't know about Texas, but here in the mid-west, Michigan in particular, the hicks are all over the place. DO NOT MISTAKE REDNECK FOR A RURAL PERSON OR A SOUTHERNER. There is a difference. All I know is here in rural Michigan, you can't talk to 3 people without someone being incredibly racist and homophobic. Just a couple of years ago a gay guy in a bar got beat the shit out of so bad that the people next to him got blood splattered on them. THAT IS NORMAL REDNECK BEHAVIOR. Don't tell me not to hate these people. I have a very good reason to.

But it's not.
