    It follows the Midwest BoS chapter, but in all fairness I can’t blame you for the confusion. Texas is big enough that even though it’s the only state to fight for slavery twice and as such is as Dixie as can be, parts of it are considered more properly Southwest and Midwest so there’s plenty of room for debate.

    I do not, however, retract my statement on Yankees, as being uncharitable towards them is traditional.

      As a proud Yankee, fuck you and your traitor ancestors. Any region defined by whether or not the states fought for the continuation of slavery is not a region worth being proud of.

        AKSHUALLY my ancestors are carpetbaggers, SUCKER.

        That aside “Dixie” isn’t really the same thing as the Confederacy, but there’s a lot to be said from the sociological angle about how cultures often develop in opposition to outside pressures. There isn’t a lot a Texan should have in common with someone from South Carolina after all.
