A stereotypical working-class white Southerner. Contrary to popular belief, many rednecks live and work in urban areas.
Rednecks are almost always
hardcore conservative evangelical Christians. Most rednecks do not have anything beyond a high school education.
Rednecks are very political and more easily triggered than the "libtards" they love to ridicule. Rednecks are proud of their Southern heritage. Rednecks will own multiple things that display the Confederate flag. A true redneck would have voted for Trump
twice.
Rednecks enjoy watching
NASCAR and college football. Other redneck pastimes include
fishing, hunting, and mudding. Rednecks get most of their TV news from Fox. They love guns.
Classic hallmarks of a redneck include a fetishization of oversized pickup trucks, casual
racism, nationalism, nostalgia, a jingoistic US-Centric worldview, a love of low-quality booze, and a deep hatred of anything perceived as progressive,
anti-American, anti-Christian, or anti-White. Rednecks are terrified of the technological, racial, social, and economic change that America is experiencing.
Rednecks like to think of themselves as down-to-earth, unpretentious, hardworking patriots. Despite their bad rap, most rednecks are very friendly hospitable
people once you get to know them. They can have positive interactions with
people who are not like them. Finding topics for conversation with a redneck can be difficult, but a good rule of thumb is to not bring up
politics or religion.
