[This “indigenous” fetishization is nothing but left-wing aryanism (these people are more deserving because of their race and ancestry).]

I never said Southerners are “more deserving”. But the endless mockery of Southerners in our popular culture is excessive. Is it wrong for Southerners to “pull rank” against those who are constantly mocking them?

As I made it clear in my post, I have high regard for Yankees who respect the South. I respect those who respect us.

Frankly I think divisionists are pathetic trolls.

I’m a Texan, not a Yankee.

I just think the whole debate comes from a faulty premise ... “indigenous” superiority. Who cares?

NO...you don’t. You stated quite clearly you wish you could go back in time and stop my family at Eilis Island and send them back.
