Somehow this isn’t parody.

    Who’s “they?” The vast swath of the eastern seaboard defined by western european immigrants like the Italians and Irish, the “fugeddaboudit” and “BAHSTAHN” guys that everyone thinks of when they think of New England cities? The west coast people known for wine exports, distinctive music and film cultures, drug culture, etc?

    Southern culture is now largely defined by hollow rhetoric and hypocrisy. They want to be rednecks with big trucks but they whine about how much they have to tip the food slave who brings their DoorDash order. They talk constantly about Christian values and then indulge in hedonistic lives and go out drinking alcohol to excess and fornicating (which the Bible explicitly says will bar you from entering Heaven volcel-judge )

      There is a southern culture, but it doesn’t come from white people.

      Quite literally, Christianity to them means that they ARE “The God”. Your best case scenario is that you are deemed “the help” by these inbreds and allowed to live so you can serve them. I hated them even when I was a libertarian because I saw them as the ultimate “welfare queens”, they want to takes from hardworking minorities, Jews, women, and LGBT people and essentially be taken care of by them while they ungratefully hurl insults at their so-called “inferiors”. They need us, but we don’t need them.

    I live innawoods, my car is splattered with mud from getting it out of my driveway when it rained. Many of my friends growing up were deeply impoverished (rusty-ass trampolines, sun-bleached toys strewn over the yard, “ignore Uncle Jim, he won’t talk, he’s playin his online poker”, wife-beating happening in the other room stuff) and I had to go to all their horrible evangelical grifter churches when I slept over on Saturdays.

    My point is that I’m just as if not more “southern” than the dorks like this guy and I’m a communist or some shit LMAO OWNED

      It’s tragic, I was acquainted with a few of these types in high school and they spent all their days floating at the edge of normie cliques, silently rehearsing their fantasies of one day joining the military, instead of just letting go and joining me and the other abberants getting into shouting matches over who had misquoted Futurama.

    Me: “Aww man, I hate the midwest sometimes…”

    Some grayback: “I am your superior, Dixie is perfection!”

    Me: “Shut the fuck up, traitor. Glory to the People’s Republic of Iowa!”

    The other half of the founding fathers who wanted to just do feudalism started a civil war then lost isn’t a culture, I’m sorry its just not if your culture dosent have a unified language, geography, religious/cultural and maybe the bare minimum is like 1000 years I don’t want to hear about it.

    But you know what I’m not even gonna go their as their are problems in defining culture like I just did… the south dosent have a united BBQ culture let alone a full blown culture so get the fuck out of here. grillman

        I always found the states early goverment, you have the liberal striver types but think the French went to far but then you got straight up Roman style slaver who treat their slaves worse then the romans. In my heart of hearts 💕 I believe the American revolution is what happens then a revolution is entirely made up of opportunistic elements, I dont even think they belive it was gonna last as long as it does.

      It’s really funny also to think that the northeast, midwest, or PNW don’t have distinct recognizable cultures. They’ve probably become less distinct now because they actually produced interesting culture, and not just truck nuts and racism.
