I wouldn't go down this route, painting all rednecks as Maga supporters is not fair to them or conducive to a good outcome.
Just carrying on the long long history of punishing the workers who dared take up arms to defend themselves a century ago.
Unlikely to change any time soon. That punishment has included the above derision, plastered all over all forms of media for decades. As well as generational economic punishment. GovCo shat on Appalachia from such a height they've never yet recovered and likely never will. Look at the response to the devastation from that hurricane.
Only people on this continent that got a worse hand are the indigenous and black folks in southern states.
And there are plenty of MAGA dipshits who aren't rednecks. If you watched the Mummers parade today, you saw a bunch of Delco bigots who wouldn't know a tractor from a turnip truck. But those guys sure looked pretty in their dresses.
Exactly, and a lot of the people who were at Jan 6 were from upper middle class suburban white america who flew in to DC taking time off from their cushy jobs to larp as revolutionaries.
It's a joke about Green Day's recent concert where they replaced the line "I'm not a part of the redneck agenda" with "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda" in their song American Idiot.
So redneck agenda is different from MAGA agenda? Do tell.
Wtf is "redneck agenda," the farmers almanac?
This slayed me. I'm going to start referring to my farmers almanac as my redneck agenda.
Never thought about it. In hindsight "not part of a maga agenda" makes for much better lyrics.
Redneck here. Fuck Trump and fuck you for thinking I support him.
Hope this helps.
Nice PP son, I'm proud of you. ❤️🫡
