  I’m not from the USA so I don’t really have a clear idea on what a redneck is.

  However, going from media representations (dodgy ground) I’d say no. There isn’t the strong streak of racism, and the demographic is uniquely young for chavs (since most grow out of it).

    Fair enough. The racism isn’t a necessary component to being a redneck but it is fairly prevalent. Rednecks don’t outgrow it typically either. Thanks for the straight reply.

      i don’t know much about usa subcultures either but it might be somewhat similar to guidos? i’m not sure how well they are known for antisocial behaviour. the closest international comparison i can think of is russian gopniks
