Your post complained about how Yankees wanted to improve things.
I merely pointed out that the antebellum south was to some extent a creation of those Yankee improvements.
We were then, and are now, and G-d willing, always shall be, one nation.
I fear that you've entirely misinterpreted my post. I put skeptical quotation marks around "improve" because the things that Yankee liberals consider improvements, like a powerful centralized government, extensive social services, higher taxes, gun control, and modernization--are not actually improvements at all, in the view of conservatives. I stated that Yankee conservatives (particularly rural Yankee conservatives) and Southern conservatives have much in common in their values, which do not generally include these so-called improvements.
