I wouldn’t go down this route, painting all rednecks as Maga supporters is not fair to them or conducive to a good outcome.
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.
This is a big point. I briefly took a job in Northern California two years ago and met more openly-racist bigots and transphobes than I ever met in my Appalachian hometown
I’ve made comments about how Mississippians are not what they’re made out to be. Not a welcome comment around here.
There’s an important distinction to be made between rednecks and hillbillies. The south would like you toe believe that anything non-urban is redneck, this is not so.
Hillbillies are generally a specific type of non urban. Here in Appalachia we refer to them as off the mountain. You don’t just run into hillbillies. You have to go where they go.
The rest of us are rednecks. I don’t think redneck is “everyone south and rural” but it’s pretty close.
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.
So redneck agenda is different from MAGA agenda? Do tell.
Redneck here. Fuck Trump and fuck you for thinking I support him.
Hope this helps.
I’ve been described by people as redneck, but I’m not remotely MAGA
…and therefore I support Green Day dunking on MAGA instead of me XD
I live in Oklahoma, drive an Old Green Truck™, have a lazy dog of unknown breed, and I work in a machine shop. Last week my neighbor and I rebuilt a motorcycle engine and put it in his bike. My wife and I have chickens. I’m a pretty sterotypical “redneck”.
I’ve voted democrat in every election since 2000.
It sounds like OP is terribly confused, and is associating people from two different groups while they really have nothing in common, which is something MAGA dipshits also do.
Bullshit
I’m born and raised in Appalachia, my daddy worked in the coal mines and drove an 18 wheeler. Certified redneck enough that I confuse the shit out of my New England neighbors.
I went out and marched with striking nurses when Bernie put out the call, and I’ve never voted Republican in my entire fucking life.
OP, you need to learn what a redneck is.
Eat shit OP. You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about.
Cody Barlow ain’t no bigot
who? Searching Cody Barlow was a bummer of different police scanner news stories. Cute reply to the tailgate temporarily suspended over my own ignorance.

This is some full-on stirrin’-somes-shit probably-russian/chinese-originated bullshit meant to divide folks up. Real rednecks would never hand their liberty to some two-bit lyin sack of shit New York Billionaire landlord’s son swindler like Trump
That’s right jackass. Keep that bullshit going. Just like you were conditioned to.
Do not under any circumstances google, The Battle of Blair Mountain. That’s where the term comes from. Asshole. And it doesn’t mean what Hollywood has taught you it means.
This isn’t helping, and it isn’t true.
Rednecks are historically left. Big on unions.
Mmmm political left and right don’t align strictly on a union-supporting axis. Even left and right don’t really mean much anymore, because the Conservative party isn’t anchored to a specific set of ideologies the was Progressives are. A conservative will support a union when the union helps rhe conservative, will oppose the union when the union hurts the conservative, and will demonize the union when it helps them get elected by lathering up their base of voters.
Progressives support labor rights, equitable pay, and regulations that protect the safety and liberty of the worker. Progressives will support those ideals even when it does not help them directly.
Many people associate Communists and Socialists with the “left” and Libertarians and Free Market Capitalists with the “right”. But there are conservative communists and progressive capitalists.
Whaa? “Many people associate Communists and Socialists with the “left” and Libertarians and Free Market Capitalists with the “right”. But there are conservative communists and progressive capitalists.” You can’t be a conservative Communist, its oxymoronic, dito for the other one too. If you call yourself a communist and have conservative ideals u are not a communist and should change your believes or be removed for communist spaces. On the other hand if you call yourself progressive and support capitalism you aren’t progressive as capitalism is inherently oppressive. You can call yourself whatever you’d like but you have to walk the walk too, to be it.
Of course you can be a conservative Communist. Most of China is both communist and conservative.
Ultimately, you can call yourself whatever you want.
China is not communist, just like the Nazi party was not socialist. And yeah you can yourself whatever you’d like but that doesn’t make it true. I can call myself a invertebrate but my bones are still on the inside
Historically Republicans were instrumental in abolishing slavery. Today’s version wants it back.
Not the indiana kind.
