[quote name='dracula']The appalachians' subculture really isnt all that different because of the small local population. Much of the time, they are kissin cousins and may not even realize it. Its not a racial slur or a prejudice, it is pure fact. If you want to put on the blinders and blindly dismiss what i am saying as racist or prejudice, then you are just plain ignorant.[/quote]
OH MY GOD. No way. Are you seriously THIS

ING STUPID???
No shit that
some (key word) Appalachian people are the kissin' cousins types. That sort of thing happens among
all sorts of people, of course.
What made your comment a prejudiced, ignorant, stereotypical, and derogatory statement was when you implied that ALL such people are "inbred hicks that like to

their sisters." Applying a characteristic that is present in only a fraction of a population to that ENTIRE population, or even assuming that it is present in any individual from the group (without having any knowledge of this individual, other than their belonging to the group), is literally the very definition of a stereotype.
You're basically arguing that a stereotype is permissible, even valid, as long as the trait is actually present in any of the members of the population in question, which is just the most insanely disgusting thing I've ever heard.
So, due to the STATISTICAL FACT that more African-American male youths are involved in gang activity than Caucasian male youths, it wouldn't be prejudiced or slurring at all for me to say that African-American youths are all just a bunch of disgusting, high school dropout gangstas who going around killing each other and going after "snitches" and selling drugs and being more or less scumbags in general?
Interesting.
