It's remarkable to me how folks who would never, ever be seen to say anything rude about other races (or who would only do so very obliquely) will quite loudly smirk about how much they hate Southerners, how stupid they think Southerners are &c.
It's all just class. One can be just as intelligent with a Southern accent as one can be stupid with another.
