One example that comes to mind of rural folks sticking it to those urbanites and intellectuals would the Khmer Rouge of Cambodia... Hardly an admirable group of romantic rebels come to rescue the country from corrupt elites, and also hardly motivated by anything we'd recognize as the conservative sentiments which we'd expect of them in more western backgrounds. But whether the kind of temperament most adapted to that state of living might make it just a matter of situational context is another story.
