If you're with the Confederate States of America, you're allying yourself with a hostile foreign nation, and therefore a traitor to your oath.

You stupid, racist, ignorant fuck.

Fucking moron is from Ohio. As a fellow Ohioan, let me say this loud and clear JD, you couchfucker, Ohio fought for the union.

The ancestors of this great state beat confederates like a drum. If you love those shitbag losers so much get the fuck out.

Ohio actually sent a ton of people, too. Fully 13% of the entire state at the outbreak of war, served. That is 3rd of any Northern state (NY and PA both were bigger contributors), and if this guy is truly "Appalachian" in ancestry, I'm pretty sure his forefathers would beat him to death where he stands for daring to say that the CSA had any right to exist, let alone siding with them.

That's basically treason right? I'm sure it doesn't matter.

"American history is a constant war between Northern Yankees and Southern Bourbons, where whichever side the hillbillies are on, wins," Vance said." And that’s kind of how I think about American politics today, is like, the Northern Yankees are now the hyper-woke, coastal elites. The Southern Bourbons are sort of the same old-school Southern folks that have been around and influential in this country for 200 years. And it’s like the hillbillies have really started to migrate towards the Southern Bourbons instead of the Northern woke people. That’s just a fundamental thing that’s happening in American politics."

What a dickhead: trying to couch his white supremacist bullshit in identity politics, but I donut think for a second that he's sofa king stupid as to be ignorant of what he's doing.

Was in 2021, headline is a paraphrase Sauce

Vance quote from the podcast discussion they're paraphrasing:

American history is a constant war between Northern Yankees and Southern Bourbons, where whichever side the hillbillies are on, wins," Vance said." And that’s kind of how I think about American politics today, is like, the Northern Yankees are now the hyper-woke, coastal elites. The Southern Bourbons are sort of the same old-school Southern folks that have been around and influential in this country for 200 years.
