Quote HistoryQuoted: But why gloat about it? If something someone said was true, the north forced conscripted enlistees and immigrants. That makes it an impure fight. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Because, if I recall correctly, the north kicked the south's butt. But why gloat about it? If something someone said was true, the north forced conscripted enlistees and immigrants. That makes it an impure fight. We gloat about it when YOU bring it up. And now you're complaining that we cheated?  I guess that sore is still open, huh? |

I have never once heard a northerner bring up the civil war in any context other than from completely historical perspective.
Southerners are the only ones I have ever seen with any type of animosity or emotional attachment to the war and it is really, really weird. |

In this thread we find out that op thinks the internet is real life and doesn’t think southerners here mostly bring up the CW. Just like all the yank talk. Grow the fuck up you have no ties to any of it and there are plenty of blue jokers born/ raised in the south as there are strong conservatives born/ raised in the north.

Quote HistoryQuoted: They'd go home and wouldn't even move if you guys didn't keep advertising how great it is. Last I checked, it was the Georgia Legislature and Georgia Governors that gave tax breaks to "Yankee" businesses to invest and settle in the Peach State. Hollywood moved to Atlanta and turned it into Y'allwood not because they're evil carpetbaggers, but because of an ever increasing ad campaign to lure said industry and a never ending cavalcade of tax breaks. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: As a southerner who feels no guilt about past transgressions real or imagined, I get tired of hearing this stuff. While we're on the subject though, speaking from experience, while they may not talk about the war itself, Yankees rarely let the opportunity pass to disparage southerners as can be seen and heard from yankee television, movies and books along with carpetbagging here to tell us how much better it was up north. Yankee go home, we're full because we got too damn many Yankees taking up space here. Y'all talk funny too, it hurts our ears. I can’t argue with you there, it wasn’t my idea. Y’allwood is about the worst idea ever. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Those “blacks” are native Georgians. Even here in TX those Dem cities (Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio) are full of native blacks and Hispanics…and white Texans. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the south breeds a metric fuck-ton of liberals. By stereotypical southerners I mean white guys, which is pretty much what everybody means when they want to trash talk southerners. You can look up the statistics on those counties, the democratic voting ones have a very large black populations and traditionally vote Democrat. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Don't break his reality with fact. Those Black Georgians aren't "real Georgians" according to him. I mean, it isn't like the first Republican Governor since the Civil War in Georgia wasn't a Democrat the year before he ran for office. It isn't like his Republican Lawmakers in Georgia aren't rolling out the red carpet for all those carpetbaggers and offering them tax breaks to relocate. Oh wait.... Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: West Texas. Near the panhandle. I suppose it's all about the law of averages. Of course not all northerners are leftists, as in not all Southerners are republican or conservative. I'd guess most people have political leanings from two things: People choose one because it fits/supports their life or, they inherited political beliefs. Southerners are a mess politically IF you choose to use a stereotype Southerner as an example. I believe most are right leaning. I'd bet your job on GOA was eye opening. Every stereotypical southerner I can think of is right leaning. Looking at the electoral map of Georgia, all those blue counties have a high percentage of black democrat voters. The whiter the county is, the redder it votes. Florida is different because a lot of the blue counties have high populations of white yankee transplants and their offspring. Those "blacks" are native Georgians. Even here in TX those Dem cities (Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio) are full of native blacks and Hispanicsand white Texans. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the south breeds a metric fuck-ton of liberals. Oh wait.... Oh wait, at no point did I say or insinuate they aren’t real Georgians. You know as well as I do when someone says “stereotypical southerners” they aren’t talking about blacks, they’re talking about Bubba. As for the yankee tax breaks, I can’t argue with you on that one, it wasn’t my idea and I’ve never been a fan of such, bringing Hollywood to Georgia was never a good idea. Republicans never controlled squat in Georgia until the last 20 years. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: But where? Where do you hear that? Indirectly from media? Or do you actually know people that relentlessly and incessantly discuss it? That's a good question. I mean, my lived experience is with "northerners," so I think I can speak to our lack of cares regarding the CW. Regarding southern culture, I will freely admit my knowledge is more from pop cultural influence than direct experience. I only spent 1 year in the south during college(Arakansas). In that time I knew some very stereotypical rednecks, and a couple of legit, "the South will rise again," folks. I recently visited North Carolina and I would say the culture I experienced (mannerisms, way of speaking, interests) fit with my stereotyped expectations. Probably not unlike if someone grew up in the south and then visited New York, they'd find that what they learned about the culture from "Friends" and "Seinfeld" would generally reflect what the culture is like there.  To BillOfRights comment, "You’ve never heard the term “Bloody Yanks”. Yankee Doodle Dandy?" Oh I definitely have, in childhood at some point, possibly from cartoons or maybe a children's play. They're old old songs I never think about, and if I did it would only make me think of perhaps the Revolutionary war or something. They have no little to no relevance or connection to my experience in northern culture. I never ever think "I'm a Yankee," unless a Southerner brings it up. Those songs are certainly not something I would think of as a "song of my people." |

Quote HistoryQuoted: BORN IN FL Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Where are you from again? I actually never saw a black person until we moved to Florida. Or a 4 Lane road. The thing that stuck out to me was how bad the schools were, and they only got worse after segregation. Oddly enough Alabama was a breath of fresh air, of course this was a very long time ago. Even the school was better, for those choosing to attend it, it was kind of optional. I heard of people that couldn't read as a kid but didn't know any until I moved to to south. I honestly thought illiteracy was a myth. My idiot ex husband and I took a motorcycle trip to pa one summer. Guess who had a rebel flag stuck in out rack the whole entire trip? Guess who talked non-stop about south this and rebel that? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: The answer is jealously The north is a cold, desolate, soulless place filled woth ugly women. Statistically speaking, the northeast States have the most inshape and fit women in the country, so.... The place I used to live (it was a fishing town at one time and home to 2 marine bases) is now being developed. If you add up all the locals from the past they are a mere fraction of the new population. They are easy to spot because they are mostly fat pigs. Any normally sized person moved there from somewhere else. But it's true about the influx ruining what at one point was a sleepy coastal town. Guess why they are moving there. The old locals can't sell their property fast enough. The local politicians are responsible for poor city planning, poor development, and at one point was going to sell the (now non-existent) waterfront park to the Chinese before word got out. Several barrier islands that used to be used by locals for fishing and camping are now highly developed resorts - developed by the locals. I was going to retire there but I don't even recognize it anymore. I would be mad but the locals did it to themselves. Plus having to interact with inlaws doesn't help. If I win the lottery I'm moving as far away from the south as possible. I think in my case that's Idaho. |

Almost forgot, I'm a member of several hiking, backpacking and cycling forums. You would think with the mild weather there would be a lot of regional participation. There's practically zero. More people cycle in the snow in Canada than in the south. When we go to NC to hike and camp, most of the people enjoying the beautiful outdoors came from elsewhere. The locals sit out front and chain smoke cigarettes. My in-laws actually look down on people that are fit and exercise.  Kind of how they look down on people that bothered to get an education or skill. They don't speak well of others getting entitlements, totally ignoring they exist on the same entitlements. Something I've noticed about people on entitlements.

The reason people fly the Confederate flag, is because it represents defiance to government over reach. The south is the example. The government administration we have now, needs to be defied, so there's that.
What some people fail to realize is that you can be beaten, but not defeated. Folks around here don't talk about the Civil war much, most of the time, yankees are talked about when it comes to ill mannered behavior.. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: In many places it's more than just history, the church graveyards are loaded with KIA's, there are historical plaques, signs, buildings, cannons, parks that are all related to it. In short, the event itself (not its reasoning and politics) is still very prominently displayed in daily social life. for example so what, in Morristown NJ there is Washington's headquarters. In two cemeteries, one in my town and one in the neighboring town, has grave markers from the Revolution. and the border of my town and the next town was Washington's retreat route from the British.

Quote HistoryQuoted: But the statues shouldn't have been removed and military bases shouldn't be renamed, that's government nonsense to try to appease idiots that will never be satisfied nor appeased and will continue to provoke discord among the populace for their own flawed ideals.

Is it the only think that make their life somehow less pitiful? Discuss. But the statues shouldn't have been removed and military bases shouldn't be renamed, that's government nonsense to try to appease idiots that will never be satisfied nor appeased and will continue to provoke discord among the populace for their own flawed ideals. Southerners (of all races) need their heroes preserved in the historical record of our nation the same as Northerners and even the filthy Californians.
