I wouldn't go down this route, painting all rednecks as Maga supporters is not fair to them or conducive to a good outcome.
And there are plenty of MAGA dipshits who aren't rednecks. If you watched the Mummers parade today, you saw a bunch of Delco bigots who wouldn't know a tractor from a turnip truck. But those guys sure looked pretty in their dresses.
Exactly, and a lot of the people who were at Jan 6 were from upper middle class suburban white america who flew in to DC taking time off from their cushy jobs to larp as revolutionaries.
I had no idea what you were talking about but JFC what a cringy bunch of freaks. The Wikipedia article had photos that turned my stomach.
It's a longstanding Philadelphia tradition with a problematic history of casual and overt racism.
It’s problematic just because of the stupid shit they’re wearing. WTF?!?!
Some of the costumes are rather intricate and impressive. And then sometimes they're racist. People who defend the Mummers try to pretend the bigots have been removed and prohibited frim returning, but this year some bigots attacked the crowd while waving MAGA flag.
The musical acts are good, though. Lotta fun for the kids.
I’m sure the kids love a spectacle but the aesthetic of it all makes feel physically ill.
It's a joke about Green Day's recent concert where they replaced the line "I'm not a part of the redneck agenda" with "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda" in their song American Idiot.
I am aware
Yep. I would say im pretty redneck and given the chance id kick him in his tiny orange cock.
So redneck agenda is different from MAGA agenda? Do tell.

Wtf is "redneck agenda," the farmers almanac?
Never thought about it. In hindsight "not part of a maga agenda" makes for much better lyrics.
This slayed me. I'm going to start referring to my farmers almanac as my redneck agenda.
Just carrying on the long long history of punishing the workers who dared take up arms to defend themselves a century ago.
Unlikely to change any time soon. That punishment has included the above derision, plastered all over all forms of media for decades. As well as generational economic punishment. GovCo shat on Appalachia from such a height they've never yet recovered and likely never will. Look at the response to the devastation from that hurricane.
Only people on this continent that got a worse hand are the indigenous and black folks in southern states.
It also didn't work for Hilary in spectacular fashion.
Bingo
