It's a typical elitist drivel from Margret Brennen. I have had enough of them. They think the South is beneath them. My husband learned to turn off his Texas accent because they would dismiss him as stupid. These people are the worst and the most prejudiced. https://thefederalist.com/2025/01/27/cbs-claims-southern-states-are-too-poor-incompetent-to-handle-disaster-recovery-without-feds/

I was raised in Alabama and now live outside St Louis. I can tell you without a doubt that you can be the smartest person in the room but your IQ points are deducted dramatically when you speak with a southern accent! Theres not any chance of mine ever leaving so I leave the people around me with Bless Your Heart, Have a Great Day, plenty of Thank You, etc. Its more for shock factor now and to just be nice.
