Fake Southerner Edit Meaning

1.

Cretinous Yankee wannabeswho, upon moving south of the Mason-Dixon line or OhioRiver, adopt sappy, sorry versions of the local dialect, wave the Stars n' Bars, pretend to be 'folk heroes' or 'outlaws', wax nostalgically about Stonewall, JEB, and General Lee, and claim Hank Williams was 'always their favorite.'

Cities like Austin, Nashville, Charlotte, Dallas, Birmingham, and large parts of Atlanta no longer feel authentically Old South because of the presence of so many fake southerners.

See fake, phony, charlatan, wannabe, bland, tacky, ignorant, drugstore cowboy, farb, loser
