1) Bumpkin, Country Bumpkin, Hillbilly Bumpkin
derogatory term for poor rural white people, mainly those who share a rural lifestyle.
2) Cracker, Cracker Jack
Derogatory term for whites, particularly from the American South.[80]
3) Good ol' boy
Rural people, especially white, powerful people and their networks.
4) Hick
Derogatory term for poor white people.
5) Hillbilly
Usually refers to rural people. It originated as a term for farmers living in The Appalachian Mountains.
6) Honky, honkey, honkie
(U.S., NZ) a white person. Derived from an African-American pronunciation of hunky, the disparaging term for a Hungarian laborer. The first record of its use as an insulting term for a white person dates from the 1950s.[114] In New Zealand, honky is used by Māori to refer to New Zealanders of European descent.[115]
7) Peckerwood, wood
used as a slur against rural people today. In the 1940s, the abbreviated version wood entered California prison slang, originally meaning an Okie mainly from the San Joaquin Valley. This has caused the symbol of the woodpecker to be used by white power skinheads and other pro-white groups.
8) Redneck
Usually an insult to rural people.
9) Trailer trash
Derogatory term for a mainly white population stereotyped to live in trailer parks.
10) White trash
Originally an insult for poor rural white people.
11) Whitey
a term for a Caucasian.[116]

Don't blame me, blame Wikipedia

If you made a list like that describing black people, Hispanic people etc.  you would be cancelled in today's world.


There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.
