“Never call a ‘redneck’ a hillbilly and never call a hillbilly’ a redneck.”

Why is that? To me, both are salt-of-the-earth people. If there’s a distinction, I’ve never heard that, even living here in TN.

Yes, that may be but for some reason the distinction can cause a little friction between certain individuals.

I worked with plenty of both rednecks and hillbillies over the years. Nearest I can figure is All Hillbillies can be rednecks if they wish but not every redneck can be a hillbilly.
