if you're asking me to choose whether to live in:

>nazi germ
>weimar
>usa today
>usa south civil war
>usa north civil war

that's......i mean....well hell man.....

it's actually EXTREMELY interesting hearing the whole "but muh HOLOCAUST" brought up any time the South is mentioned. again, there's the CSA doc that spike lee wherein of course the usa helps the Nazis in WWII. i assume this is the beginning of the "South -> Nazis" comparisons, but like most things they are incredibly misplaced.

if *anything* in american politics could be philosophically linked to the Nazis it's most certainly early 20th century progressives, namely those that arose predominantly from newly powered Northern propagandist machines. in fact, *some* of the very same people that FUNDED the south during the war, AFTER the war purchased these machines and used them to push the same ideology but in a new package.

yes, black people were inferior, but it was merely science and they couldn't help it. we shouldn't enslave them or waste resources returning them, we should sterilize them and prevent them from reproducing thru birth control and abortions. this was the eugenics movement of early 20th century progressives like Margaret Sanger, who learned much of this radical theory from the Fabian Society while she was in Europe. this sort of thinking was *extremely* common with the northern post-war elite when confronted for the first time with a mass influx of people they thought to be "inferior". (to see this play out in real time today: see illegal immigrants (slaves) being bussed to northern cities like NYC or DC and their politicians reactions. read anything about hispanic women being sterilized or had forced hysterectomies performed on them?)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabian_Society
of course, this way of thinking philosophically leads to socialism -> communism, which we all know if we're talking about "muh death numberz" it's not even close. of course you can kill ethnic undesireables in a communist or socialist state, why their *very existence brings down the whole*. it's easy to forget the whole "socialism" in nationalist socialism.

and this is proven by today, wherein we have openly communist nations, using communist iconography on their flags, calling themselves communist, knowingly committing ethnic genocide TODAY, RIGHT NOW, and no one even cares or at least *can do anything about it* because said communists actually run the world. because they won the war. which war tho?

>all of them

>WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU THINK THINGS WOULDN'T BE MUCH DIFFERENT IF THE SOUTH HAD WON?!?!

this was from 1934, after forced sterilization laws had been enacted for decades:

once you realize wars are get rich quick schemes and people REALLY ARE just pawns, it makes more sense.

the people funding never lose. ever.

for instance: before the mass immigration to new england via europe in the 1930-40's, the overwhelming majority of jewish power, both financially and politically, was in Florida.

in case you didn't know, Florida was part of the South and indeed supported slavery. wanna read moses levy's wikipedia? remember, when they use the word "merchant" it doesn't JUST mean slave *owner*, it means slave trafficker and seller.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses_Elias_Levy
>Moses Elias Levy (1782 in Mogador, Morocco – September 7, 1854 in White Sulphur Springs, Virginia) (In Arabic :موسى إلياس ليفي) was a Moroccan-American businessman and ardent social and religious reformer. Born into an elite Sephardic Jewish family in Morocco, Levy migrated to Gibraltar as a child and later established himself as a slave merchant in the Caribbean with extensive business dealings in England, Europe, and the Americas. After amassing a fortune, Levy ended his business career in favor of a life centered on philanthropic causes.[1] In 1821 he immigrated to the Florida Territory in the United States where he established a large agrarian refuge for Jews who were suffering under repression in Europe. Although the number of Jews fell far short of expectations, at least five Jewish families made their way to Levy's Pilgrimage Plantation—located in north central Florida—making this the first agrarian Jewish settlement in the United States (1822–1835).[1]

basically, he came to america, used his boats to single handedly establish slave routes on Curacao and other islands, had two sons serve in the CSA government, went to London to advocate for ending slavery there (of course, he owned BOATS!, and that's the one thing you HAD TO HAVE to get slaves from africa to the new world), opened the first jewish settlement in america, and "amassed a fortune" selling africans to them.

his name ever come up in those talks about evil slave owners? no? hmmmm

now, if *only* there were some reason why a poor white southerner might be *upset* at a certain people who not only *literally started* the transantlantic slave trade, but also escaped completely unscathed any of the drawbacks of losing a civil war that they also funded......

like is there any chance, *any chance* at all that the same people pushing the war in the south thru media were the same people pushing war in the north thru media?

and the same people that own the media today?
is there *any chance*? what would that chance be? is there *any chance* we're still being manipulated in this manner?

Always amusing to see the CSA supporters try to explain away slavery. But the bottom line remains: the CSA wanted to preserve the evil of slavery & white supremacy so much they made double-extra sure it wouldn’t be outlawed ever again by putting it in their constitution. That simple fact alone should make their cause a deal breaker for current support of the CSA. Any support now justifies slavery as a consequence of their wish the South had won. That’s an atrocity you can’t explain away.

okay that's what you say, but what are you saying to the point i made about whatever "white supremacy" is (a termed coined by....well....i'll let you go ahead and guess) still existing, *if not even growing* well into the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s?

are you saying that "evil white supremacy" ended in 1865 and that no one in the north was "evil"?

One of the best texts I've read was "Life in the Confederate Army" by a Scotsman who moved to Baton Rouge around 1850, got caught up in the war, and marched through Indian Territory, Arkansas, etc...

His observations are about as objective as anything you'll read.
