I’m not sure what kind of semantics war you think you’re winning, but it’s a funny one.


Governments, even kingdoms, rule with the consent of the people they govern.

The problem here is that you have a people, Virginians, who have lost control of their state, and are being governed by outsiders who come from an alien culture. They also want to dismantle the existing culture.

Virginians did not consent to this, and will not accept it. It’s not a internal disagreement between neighbours that we can comprise on, it’s an external conflict.

Look at the gun sanctuary movement.

That’s a lot of hyperbole but given the semantics you’re clinging onto that checks out.

Also, that gun sanctuary thing is completely unconstitutional and won’t hold up. Again, just semantics and emotional posturing. But I get your point.

The people invading Virginia today do so with more hatred in their hearts for white Southerners than the Union Army had in the 1860's. As someone who lives in an area of SC that is being settled by Yankees, I see it all the time. The people coming here are parasites, who love the beach, the weather and low taxes, but sneer at us natives as if we're scum. I've said this before, but the Puritan ethos of those in the Northeast and New England is foreign to us. Those damn Yankees want each and every one of us to think like they do, and we really don't give a damn what anybody thinks, so long as we're left the hell alone. That's why I've said I'd rather the South be invaded by Mexicans than damn Yankees.
