The term "hillbilly" is NOT the "correct" name for the line in question. It is a derogatory ethnic pejorative and has no place in chess lexicon or on Wikipedia, especially in an article that is supposed to be instructional. It is no different than calling some random combination the "nigger attack" or the "wetback attack" or the "Jew attack." Of course, in the deranged, illogical, brainwashed world of Political Correctness it's considered perfectly o.k. to insult Southerners by implying that they are too stupid to play chess.

How about we call the dull witted line in question the "Northern Liberal Attack?" Or the "Democrat Attack?" Or the "Urban Leftist Attack?" Any group of white people should be fair game. If it's good for one it's good for any and all. Or we can alternate between "Hillbilly Attack" and "Leftist Twit Attack," on alternate months. No? Why not? Because accuracy isn't the sole aim of this article, is it? No, it's more important to keep this nasty, utterly pointless gouge at Southerners in there than to provide thoughtful analysis of the Caro-Kann defense.

Why is there no mention of the "Illegal Alien Attack?" You know, where one of the players keeps sneaking pawns onto the board and the arbiter sits by and pretends there is nothing he can do about it? What? You've never heard of that one? It's from the same school of chess as the "Hillbilly Attack."

Better yet, why don't you people just stop the insults PERIOD and call the line something more appropriate?. Wikipedia certainly shouldn't be promulgating and enabling this derogatory stupidity. E1e10p (talk) 12:41, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
