The original meaning refers to poor working class white folk. I guess we
cant have any of those.

The sun burnt farmer's necks are the meaning I'd grown up with. Up until
the time of Archie Bunker, of course...
=========================================
A slang term, usually for a rural white southerner who is politically
conservative, racist, and a religious fundamentalist (see
fundamentalism). This term is generally considered offensive. It
originated in reference to agricultural workers, alluding to how the
back of a person's neck will be burned by the sun if he works long hours
in the fields.
