sorry but once you notice how often ppl use a southern accent as shorthand for being unintelligent you can never unsee it. classism is baked so deeply and why are you acting like anyone who talks the way my grandfather talks is stupid. ditto cockney accents being used to denote stupid and evil. why are you acting like someone who talks like a member of the working class is irredeemable and an idiot. Ditto black accents for being classless and somewhat of a criminal. Oh that black character talks with a posh accent? Must be a professor. The professor breaks out some street slang? Better break out hard rap music and CGI a tattoo on their face
