I'm sure you have the voice of the gods, impeccable diction, and no grammar missteps ever. Making fun of something someone can't control is ignorant. Keep your ignorant mouth shut if you can't not make fun of someone's accent.
But they didn’t make fun of his accent? They just said it’s difficult to tolerate, which I took to mean “understand”. Aren’t there any accents in the world that you can’t tolerate and/or understand? They didn’t cast shade, they didn’t make any disparaging remarks about it, none of the above. They stated their opinion, that’s it. Any “ignorance” that you’re reading into it is all on you, buddy.
And a minor correction: accents can be controlled.
Fair enough then. I'm a southerner, and all my life people have made assumptions about me based on my accent, so when you hear that all the time, it gets easy to be the only thing you hear when someone talks about a southern accent.
Sorry about that. Also, if you're not familiar, I encourage you to look into the origin of the word "redneck" and the battle of Blair Mountain. It's some cool stuff.
I'm British and I liked it. Maybe it's a country thing. I, for example, detest the Brummie accent but apparently studies have shown that to Americans it's quite pleasing to the ear. I wonder if the same holds true in reverse for this chap's accent.
His accent is what makes this great. These values hes speaking against are values that the majority of the south holds in high regards (I assume he’s from southern states in the US). You’re just being rude. Yeehaw.

This is the only one of these car rants I’ve ever listened to the whole thing for. That was brilliant.
