I am of southern heritage and my people fought for the south. It was a hundred years before I was born. I usually avoid threads with these hateful assholes who get off on spouting hatred for their fellow Americans. Southerners have fought in plenty of wars for the US since the Civil War. These dickheads are on a superiority course just like the liberals.
Ironically, these louts now expect the former confederate states to win their presidential election for them and wouldn’t have a prayer in hell without the southern states.
I have NOTHING against secession in 2020. = The remainder of the USA would be FINE without NY, NJ, New England, CA, OR, WA & HI.
(Should those LEFTIST states decide to leave the Union, I promise to make trips to the two new international borders to wish those FASCIST/SOCIALIST NATIONS farewell & good luck.)

This is what I don’t get coming from some conservatives. Southerners were fighting against everything today’s conservatives hate: centralized power, the Washington swamp and all of its sickening corruption, exploitation by the politically well connected corporate fat cats. They were for the things conservatives support - decentralized power, decisions to be made at a local level whenever possible, keeping the government out of business and keeping subsidies to a minimum, fiscal responsibility, a balanced budget, a non interventionist foreign policy, etc.
The South overwhelmingly still believes in those things and is the backbone of the conservative movement. Without the South and their considerable political clout, the gun grabbing, Gaia worshiping, corrupt global socialists would have long since taken over America. All conservatives in America would be living with their boot on your necks.
Yet, despite all of that, they just cannot help themselves whenever they see an opportunity to hurl insults at Southerners.....to call them traitors, to make the ridiculous claim that they were fighting for slavery when less than 6% of Southerners actually owned slaves, and to cast their lot with the exact same Leftists they otherwise despise in attacking the South’s history, culture and people. Its truly amazing. You see it even here all the time.
“I am of southern heritage and my people fought for the south. It was a hundred years before I was born”
Me too.
Doesn’t make them right. They acted like Democrats after Trump won.
Confederate leaders lead their people in to disaster and death and poverty for no reason other than the belief they could own other humans.
The Democrats today do not see us as human. It was then and is now hubris and arrogance and disrespecting the humanity of others.
My family history had soldiers on both sides
I don’t hate Southerners. I do think the actually history should be taught
Actually Lincoln did have a prayer...
he won election without the Southern states...
