Time For Whites To Wake Up

[A Theist]

Germans, you've never even been to the southern United States (and presumably have never even been to the US at all). Literally the only information you could have is from hearsay.

Just shut the fuck up.

Well, Germy does have a Google education you know.

I got all of this by simply googling: "Is the south still racist?"

There you go. How can anybody argue with that?

Regarding the term Redneck: From the same article that Germy the Bigot quoted from, the term Redneck was also used to describe union coalminers in the Appalachian area. Miners wore red bandanas to identify themselves as union members, (see also the battle of Blair Mountain).

The United Mine Workers of America (UMW) and rival miners' unions appropriated both the term redneck and its literal manifestation, the red bandana, in order to build multiracial unions of white, black, and immigrant miners in the strike-ridden coalfields of northern and central Appalachia between 1912 and 1936. The origin of redneck to mean "a union man" or "a striker" remains uncertain, but according to linguist David W. Maurer, the former definition of the word probably dates at least to the 1910s, if not earlier. The use of redneck to designate "a union member" was especially popular during the 1920s and 1930s in the coal-producing regions of southern West Virginia, eastern Kentucky, and western Pennsylvania, where the word came to be specifically applied to a miner who belonged to a union.

Notice the multiracial gathering of miners under the term Redneck in bold. Doesn't seem redneck was a racist term here.

Germy didn't mention that one. So it would seem that Annik was correct that Germy was being selective in his Google research if only to bolster his bigoted point of view.
