Douchebags vs. Rednecks

One of the longer standing conflicts among human beings is city versus country or douchebags versus rednecks. The country is perhaps, a perpetual reminder of what was lost--the pastoral life of our dreams. People like Richard Proenneke or Henry David Thoreau or the Romantics either returned to that dream time physically or philosophically. It is a symbol of freedom from want and from slavery. In the idealized world, the country is the land of the Sun; all wealth comes from the Sun and in a world of bounty life is freedom. The people of the country are the people of the Sun, the rednecks are marked by the Sun. They're cursed by their city dwelling brethren who bathe in fluorescent light.

The City is the underworld, the world of man, which is necessarily the world of lies and liars and forgetting, and is the realm of false creation. The epithet of douchebag connotes water and women. The artificial light of the City is money, which in the modern world, sprays from Central Banks and follows an artificial cycle in a grim mockery of the seasons.
