They call that quaint there... These aren't stupid hicks. If you think for a second that these folks don't see this as an awesome way to give a big Texas flying finger to Silicon Valley types with their skinny jeans, silly beards, and smugnaciousness... you've merely increased their will to continue this process.
- simplemath 13y agoEschewing justice in favor of giving "a big Texas flying finger to Silicon Valley types with their skinny jeans, silly beards, and smugnaciousness" pretty much makes them stupid hicks, sorry.
- gknoy 13y agoIf true, it would make them jerks, but it would be foolish to dismiss them as stupid.
- npsimons 13y ago"Shortsighted" and "ignorant of justice" come to mind as synonyms for "stupid".
- Iftheshoefits 13y agoThere's a difference between "clever" and "not stupid." One can be a stupid "clever" person. These people are "clever," because they know what butters their bread. That doesn't mean they aren't also dumb hicks.
- CamperBob2 13y agoI'm from that area. "Stupid hicks" isn't entirely inaccurate. As in other areas ranging from religion to economics, these salt-of-the-Earth folks are culturally conditioned to adopt the views of whoever gets to speak first.
