| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1018225 05/20/2012 02:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It portrays whites as inbred ignorant violent people is it the most racist thing you have ever seen? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1018225 Nope; it portrays Bible Belt troglodytes as such; truth hurts? O.K. the Beverly hillbilly's, deliverance, all of the exploitation and exaggeration of whites from rural areas is definitely inflammatory and derogatory. And the portrayal of such characters limits rural whites on their journey to rise above their poor roots. |

Now tell me, are the following clips staged? |

Its the same sort of racism that African Americans complained about with servants saying yes sir boss. Just because their were African Americans who were servants who had learned to humor their boss's doesn't mean it was a good image to portray for African Americans in movies it put the idea in everyone's minds that was what they all were its called a stereo type. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1068718 I don't know the movie, but if it is pushing stereotypes in a not so flattering manner, you have a point. No rednecks are not a special race of people they are the poor class white people and the stereotype of them is harmful to the poor class of white people and to some degree to all white people. |
