How does that old saying go? "If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck... then it's a... what"?
Lee's Ghost: "Or do you have to start off such discussions by moronically making up categories of people?"
I didn't make up the term "Neo-Confederate", and I also use the term "Pro-Confederate" which strictly speaking is not quite the same.
I would give a "Pro-Confederate" some credit for honesty if they know their history and are willing to confess it truthfully.
But a "Neo-Confederate" is a political category which begins with the idea of distorting actual history to project today's debates back in time to the Civil War.
Neo-Confederates hope to make Black Republican "Ape" Lincoln the original Obama, imposing socialism and putting Americans on "big gubmint's plantation."
In the Neo-Conf version, Jeff Davis fought back for Freedom, Liberty and the Constitution against Lincoln's unwarranted invasions of the peaceful South.
So Lincoln is Obama and Davis, oh, I don't know, maybe Barry Goldwater, or Ronald Reagan?
Lee's Ghost: "If so, what do neo-Federalist/communists believe?"
You'll have to ask your Democrat friends about that, FRiend.
;-)
Lincoln did not put the USA on the socialist plantation, he just opened up the gates and removed all pretext of limited Fedral power.
“If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck... then it’s a... what”?
Just what I thought...a neo-Federalist/communist.
Not worth the time. See ya, comrade.
