Jesus. You live in KY. Many fine people in the South do not consider Redneck a bad term.

But I think of a different definition when I say that. When I use the word derogitorily, I’m referring to a characteristic that can be quite negative, but actually applies to a lot of folks that are not technically rednecks. And it ticks them off when I refer to them as rednecks, and even more when I explained why I used the term.
It’s a bit like calling a KKK memeber a n****r. And when you look at the multiple meanings of the word, some of them really are exactly that.
