I didn't call anyone dumb. Why did you jump to that?
If I translate "redneck" to my native language, the result is roughly "someone who lives away from civilization", "lacking higher education", "anti-progressive and behind the times". Those are exactly what I was aiming for, as that's the kind of person that will (by definition, essentially) have the most & worst IT support issues.
(Also—what's your definition of "redneck" when you say "rednecks got us to the moon"? By my understanding, at the point you start working on the space program you're not a "redneck" anymore…)
