Mentality of Hillbillies

As one Republican lawmaker told Novak, GOP leaders champion an “anti-
union attitude that appeals to the mentality of hillbillies at revival
meetings.”

The hostility, while disgusting, is unsurprising. Unions wield power
for workers, meaning they present an obstacle to Republican corporate
donors, who want to put profit-making over other societal priorities.

Nothing new here. Berne in his "Games People Play" called this
"lets you and him fight."

This is simply the recycling of the successful race baiting
tactics the moneyed elite used in the south for 100 years to keep
the blacks and less well off [majority] whites from uniting and
throwing their a***s out of the state house and imposing fair
taxes on their huge [inefficient] estates and plantations at the
same rates everyone else had to pay, albeit at the national
level.
