Commander's Column: Espousing a Division of North and
South
I was
fascinated by a tweet referencing a Huffington Post column I saw a month ago
which was posted by a Southern heritage account, about the only kind I have the
camp follow on Twitter. The article was
entitled “Now is the Perfect Time for the North and South to Divide” (by David Fagin, https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5a0a7d78e4b00652392183ab/amp). Seems this self-proclaimed
writer-musician-Trump Resister found common ground with the Southern
secessionists. The general premise as
well as many statements from this libtard columnist I found on point while
others were, shall we say, illuminating and illustrative of exactly how
disparate the alt-left populaces of the Northeast and left coast are to the
flyover Bible Belt and nations heartland.
“These are
trying times. The more proof that emerges revealing the overwhelming majority
of our country’s most powerful leaders are nothing but a bunch of corrupt
criminals and traitors, the more their supporters will deny it. On one side, we have a population that relies
on facts, truth, fair play, and common sense.”
True, right? But wait, hold onto
your breeches. Fagin continues, “Who
the hell knows what they rely on? Fox
news, fake news, hackers, conspiracy theories, coal mines, fraud, misdirection,
racism, stupidity, ignorance, warm beer, Jesus (a Jesus who hates anyone and
anything that isn’t Christian), Trump, and guns. And more guns.” Just take a moment to take in
that perverted perspective. While there
is a consensus opinion that it is left leaning mainstream media outlets
responsible for fake news, this writer-musician-resister attempts to label
right leaning alternative media as the purveyors of fake news and conspiracy
theories. Just please ignore the
revelations of campaign operatives paying for sexual harassment claimants and
dirt dossiers. And that coal accounts
for 30.4% of the United States balanced electricity generation portfolio. Of
course, we are white Southerners which automatically makes us racists. But you
have to love these agnostic atheist Unitarian Universalist Scientologists
preaching about Jesus and Christianity.
Remember, if you don’t accept and endorse their position you are a hater
so hence, if a Christian espouses a Christian perspective of heterosexual
monogamy and the doctrine of John 14:6
where Jesus proclaims, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to
the Father except through me”, they are a bigoted homophobic intolerant
xenophobe.
It gets
better. We would all agree with Fagin’s
statement, “The fight to preserve common sense and rational thought is on. Those who believe in the basic principles
this country was founded on vs. those who seek to destroy them and rewrite them
as they see fit.” Those of us who
recognize the War for Southern Independence as a struggle to retain originalist
constitutional governance may be appalled that the alt-left believes they are
the stalwarts of liberty and sovereignty. They attempt to brand Southerners
clinging to their Bibles, guns and monuments as racist bigots when they
incessantly unrelentingly attack all vestiges of Southern heritage different
from them. But, he’s correct, “Be it in
the media, on social media, in the classroom, at the grocery store, the office,
the neighborhood bar, at the dinner table, pretty much everywhere you look the
hatred and vitriol spewing forth, from both sides, has reached epidemic
proportion.” But he continues, “Even
though those of us who believe in equality, and the ridiculous concept of Live
and Let Live (excepting of for course human fetuses), know we are right, trying
to convince those who choose ignorance over truth, and hate over love, is
exhausting.” So glad these pacifists for
truthful Planned Parenthood baby organ peddling, Antifa militant methods of
silencing opposition and, razing monuments are choosing love over hate. I would fear to see otherwise.
But Fagin again
states a truthful perspective in observing, “Neither one seems to wish to budge
an inch. Compromise is a pipe dream.” He
supposes, “If we continue to devolve and descend down this fruitless path of
self-destruction, snapping at and dismissing each other at every single turn,
is it that far-fetched to think we may find ourselves thrown into a Civil War
2.0 somewhere in the not too distant future?
Everywhere you look, our country is being overrun with pedophiles, fake
news peddlers, fear mongers, bigots, racists, homophobes, morons, etc., and
that’s just Alabama.” Thought y’all
would like that dig there. Again, as
white Southern Christian, don’t attempt to deny you are a moronic fear
mongering, racist, bigoted homophobe. Incidentally, worldatlas.com in an April
2017 article “Number of Sex Offenders By State” showed California, Michigan,
New York, Oregon, Wisconsin, Illinois and Washington holding eight of the top
nine spots of state ranking of the number of sex offenders. Don’t let facts and statistics stand in the
way of a good dig though.
Fagin goes on and I’ll just let him
astound you in his own revealing illustrative words. “There may be a solution that works well for
both sides. For those of us in the liberal-leaning northern states, the ones
where “I now pronounce you husband and husband,” aren’t words that would cause
a riot in the streets, why not just let them go? Let them have their child-molesting
congressmen, their confederate monuments, their ten commandments, their merger
of church and state, their automatic weapons, their climate change denial,
their Muslim bans, their lies-as-truth, their eggs and grits, their state-run
health care, their stock car races, their medieval laws, their corporate tax
cuts, their abortion bills, their humidity, etc. Let. Them. Go. A two-nation, two-government system. Complete with two different Presidents and
two different Constitutions. Is it such
a bad idea? We are already the Divided
States of America, and there doesn’t seem to be any hope of reversing course,
so rather than force one side to assimilate to the other - which would do
nothing but assure us of years more of the same, or worse, why not accept it
and make the unavoidable separation as palatable as possible? Before all hell breaks loose, we need to do
something about it before it’s too late.
For those currently in the South who may find themselves on the wrong
end of the laws in this newly divided two-nation system, relocate. Sure, it may be a little colder moving from
Arkansas to New Jersey, but what’s more important, your comfort or your
freedoms? As far as jobs go, don’t
worry, we’ll have plenty of clean energy, solar-based companies to teach you
how to turn sunlight into gold. (Sunlight in the northeast??) To accommodate for the overflow of people
flooding (??) in from points South, perhaps a point of compromise prior to
division would be expanding the North say down to Virginia. Think about it. No more President Trump.No more neo-nazis. No
more Republicans.Conversely, no more Hillary. No more whiny liberals. No more
gays or Jews or blacks (??). No more
Keurig coffee makers. Paradise,
right? If we both just take a step back,
agree to disagree, recognize it’s never going to get any better, and divide the
nation up accordingly, I think, years from now, we’ll look back at this moment
in time as a blessing rather than a curse.”
Demonizing grits now? Happy New
Year!
