The amusing thing is that "Hillbillies" were anti-southern against Plantation slave-owners. They fought against the Confederacy even though they lived in the fringes of the Southern area.
They lived in the wooded hills where agriculture was not worth owning slaves. "Hillbillies" hated Southern Slave owners. They were "Union" men.
So to call what you think are raciest, white, southern Americans "Hillbillies" is kindof ironic.
