I didn’t meet my wife’s parents until after proposing. Her parents lived in a very rural area in a foreign country (no internet, and limited phone contact), and we only travelled there after we were engaged. They’re wonderful people, but there just was no way to meet them otherwise.
That’s a tough situation. It depends on how close girlfriend is to her family. If they are very close and frequently interact then it’s reason to think things through carefully. If she’s not that close then it shouldn’t be a deal-breaker. Also if girlfriend seems reasonably intelligent but her parents not, then she won the genetic lottery... One more word, as we get older we tend to take on to some degree the characteristics of at least one of our parents. Try to figure out if girlfriend is more like her mom or dad in personality and if that one is tolerable or not. OP, I wish you well. This is not an easy thing to handle.

Wait... you had planned on proposing and hadn’t already met her parents? 😬
