It was his personality, which at times was abrasive and for the most part, difficult to get along with. (And, to be fair, Edith sometimes was kind of a dingbat, which is really somewhat of an affectionate term compared to "meathead", which is what he called his son-in-law.)

Why was Archie Bunker rude?

He was having trouble adjusting to changing society in the 1970s when it was no longer acceptable to discriminate against classes of people. He and Edith were from an older generation with different values and you can see that in the way in which they interact as husband and wife. Archie did not welcome societal change and was irritated by his daughter and son-in-law's insistence that he update his attitudes. That caused Archie to lash out in defense of the only way of life that he knew.
