If you want to know what the demoralization campaign against the American South is about - tearing down their monuments, trying to force a sense of shame about their ancestors - just look at Germany. It’s not just WW2 stuff that they’re not supposed to honor. It’s WW1, the entire Prussian military tradition. The country as a an entity has been considered too dangerous to allow it to have any pride. A German man once explained to me that even fairly innocuous war songs were suppressed as ‘dangerous.’

What’s the result? A totally pliant, subservient state that allows its infrastructure to be destroyed (NS2), and elected governments that are basically destroying the national identity. This is the end goal of people who hate the South. They want a placid population filled with men like Tim Walz.

The Civil War never really stopped according to the North. They used Reconstruction then rolled straight into a a cultural war while the economic war never stopped.

Hahaha, this is dumb. Do they really think people in the south today identify with the confederacy?

“ They” are destroying Southern culture by moving here far more than removing a few statues.

Well, they're not going to get it. People from the South are proud proud of it. It just means more.

We are at 60+ years of Post-Civil Rights Era Reconstruction

As long as the Voting Rights Act does not apply equally to all states, Reconstruction will continue

There's no shame where I'm at. People are proud as hell to be Southern in TN and they'll let you know it

The real damage to Southern Culture was done when they took over our schools.

I don’t know. I’ve heard several New Yorkers and Californians here in the Nashville area complaining about having to live side by side with the backwards Tennessee hicks.

Maybe the Tennesseans don’t want to live by the cooky cucky left wing Californians?

Those aren't Southerners though. They're shite bag transplants living in 1 of 3 blue counties in the entire state.

I think people in the South just want yanks and Californians to go back to the states they screwed up.

I've been saying it for decades. So did my Father and Grandfather.

... and my Grandfather was the Son of a Civil War Veteran.

Southern culture has always been anathema to American pop culture, which has historically been dominated by NYC and LA. Our culture is agrarian. Theirs is urban. Our culture is Protestant. Theirs is Catholic and Jewish. Our culture places the church as the center of the community. Theirs is the schoolhouse. Our culture wants to be left alone. Theirs wants all of the world to have a government identical to theirs, with zero regard to their customs and history.

Look at the demographics of the states that are ranked low in those categories and see if there’s something in common you can find about them other than the fact they produce elite football players. We sure as hell don’t need any self loathing white guilt ridden leftists moving here
