re: #220 goddamnedfrank

Just the entire history of slavery, post Reconstruction, Jim Crow and the resistance to the Civil Rights movement.

People being called redneck were never physically fucking hunted, lynched, denied the right to speak freely, assemble, vote, purchase certain homes, hold certain jobs, join most country clubs, eat at most resaurants, made to sit in the balcony or the back of the bus, on account of their skin color.

That was a seriously stupid fucking question.

So if a man gets all up in your southern face yells you lousy worthless effing redneck, that man should be far less insulted than if it’s a black man and someone hurls the N word at him?

History aside, face to face it’s damn angry words. The intent is the exact same-To anger, insult, and do harm.
