Richmond pede here. I have been patiently waiting for the day when the MAGA movement would stop making the insanely ridiculous claim that the Confederates were somehow the blue-hairs of the 1860s. This thread has made me happy. The federal leviathan was created by the Civil War. Both sides had little choice but to fight...a house divided and all that...but the effort that has gone on in this movement to link the agrarian, states rights South with today’s big government, anti-religious, urban liberals has been frustrating.
