True Rednecks and Southeners have real class and correct manners. They know that is impolite to make fun of a group to which you yourself do not belong. Therefore, no black jokes if you are white, but it is also wrong for black people to make white jokes. Ignorant elitists make fun of rednecks all of the time, and never turn the spotlight on themselves. They have no class.
Foxworthy can make fun of Rednecks because he IS one. We can laugh at ourselves, but liberals, who swim in a sea of irony, never do.
I stopped watching Comedy Channel because of stereotypically biased black and white comedians who think it’s funny to make fun of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, et al - any state sophisticated urbanites deem “backward and redneck”.
I realize Jeff does it in knowing and loving fun, but the trend is still there and it perpetuates the stereotype, frankly.
