Our North American CHUD is likely a superstitious, landowning boomer who identifies with white nationalism and Christianity. I imagine the Chuds of other settler colonial areas have a similar profile (e.g. Brazil, South Africa, Australia). But to those who live/have spent time abroad, what is the local stereotype of a reactionary?

    True it does have some classism baked in as it does cover a lot of older reactionary working class men but you do get plenty of middle class gammons so I wouldn't say its a class based insult. Compared to chav it's much less about class than it is about views. It's probably more ageist if anything as it's basically ok boomer and chud merged into one.

      Definitely agree

      Imo Gammon would be closer to Redneck; implying reactionary views and certain occupations(farming, trades respectivley)
