Are you what they refer to as a "redneck"? If not, do you know or have you ever known one? What has your experience been like with rednecks?

Redneck meaning according to AI

a white person of low social status living in a rural area, especially one seen as politically reactionary and unsophisticated (used especially in reference to parts of the southern US):

I am not a redneck, I have met some when I was in the army.

I don't think I can say anything about rednecks without being swarmed here.

When i was in college people used to call me a redneck because I did not like hippies. I was okay with it.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Why didn't you like hippies, exitseven? Did a hot hippie chick turn you down?

@beefcakebradybatson hahahahah as a matter of fact. Freshman year i had a friend who lived in the city and was a commuter. He and his girlfriend said that they knew somebody that i should meet.
So on Friday they7 pick me up at my dorm and we go to a restaurant in the city to meet this girl. She was already there when we arrived. She was fairly pretty so maybe i was interested. The four of us sat at a table and we were talking. I told her that I was in Air Force ROTC and wanted to be a pilot. All of a sudden she started to give me a hard time about it. I guess she was sort of a hippie. Things just went downhill from there. My friend thought it would be funny to leave me there alone with her. So they sneak out and leave. It took a little while before we realized what happened. This girl tells me she was leaving. I ask her if she would give me a ride back to my dorm. It would have been a hour nnd a half in the freezing cold and I just had a light jacket.
So as she was driving away I jumped on the hood of her car. I grabbed onto the top of the hood and held on as she drove round the parking lot trying to shake me off. Finally she stopped and let me in the car. We had a quiet ride back to my dorm. I thanked her for the ride. There was no second date.

I am originally from the South but was never a redneck, according to the AI definition.

[midnightmoon05]

Me? No.
never met one that I think… might have seen one or two in Walmart.

[sonic1000]

Of course. But you have to remember that the label comes from pretentious morons that can't tie their shoes, so they lash out at others.

[beefcakebradybatson]

I can tie my shoes, but some redneck broads are hot, if racist.

[FunkyMonkee]

I have a few distant cousins that are rednecks, to a degree but, it's been decades since I've seen them.

[beefcakebradybatson]

I'm black, so would I be a "purpleneck?"

[Anonymous]

Nope.
