Please “Dump Dixie” or YSRDD (Yankee Self-Righteous Delusional Disorder)

 south-carolina-college-1820

Michael Tomasky at the Daily Beast believes “It’s Time to Dump Dixie.” Please do. He also thinks that there may be a point in the future when the South should have its independence. Hallelujah, but we tried that once and were forced to keep company with our “kind” neighbors to the North, those like Tomasky who call the South, “one big nuclear waste site of choleric, and extremely racialized, resentment.” Tomasky, by the way admits he was born in West Virginia, yet laments it “was not a Southern state when I was growing up but culturally is one now.” You see, according to Tomasky, the South lacks “tolerance, compassion, civic decency, trans-racial community, [and] the crucial secular values on which this country was founded….” Translation: America used to be a great progressive wonderland of democracy and equality, but evil Southerners ruined it! Better to just write off Dixie than try to convert them, for, as we all know, the North is the bastion of all things good and noble, the shining city upon a hill for the world to emulate.

  1. Heh. We Southern Baptists are a force of nature. Funny how the Old South still functions in the Southwest. Lots more Catholics in these parts that can fix cars.

  2. Screw that Idiot. Im geographicly northern born and raised in the north. But Ive been in the south and I love and respect the south. I also believe in the historical truth about the war of northern agression (wish you would call it liberal agression ) and my views definitely lean hard south. This guy is just another douche bag with too much time on his hands and manure on his breath. When the south rattles again I can garantee you there will be trainloads of yankees coming down to support you.
