The history of the South will not go peacefully into that long night, it will rage against the evil of Mordor on the Potamic. It will he the foundation of the New Independent South.

I asked ChatGTP what would be the advantages of the South being Indpendent.


“The South” here would roughly mean the states of the former Confederacy (say, TX, LA, MS, AL, GA, FL, SC, NC, TN, AR, plus maybe OK, KY, and VA).
⚙️ 1. Economic Policy Flexibility
Potential advantage:
The South could tailor its tax, trade, and regulatory policies to its economic strengths — energy, agriculture, shipping, and manufacturing.

It might lower corporate taxes, attract foreign investment, and shape trade deals directly with Latin America or Europe via Gulf and Atlantic ports.

With control over energy policy, it could exploit oil, gas, and renewables without federal constraints.

2. Cultural and Political Autonomy

Potential advantage:

An independent South could express a distinct political identity, more aligned with socially conservative and libertarian views common in the region.

It could reform institutions, voting systems, and social policies to fit its regional values without national polarization.

3. Control of Energy and Natural Resources

Potential advantage:

The South has vast energy reserves (Texas oil, Gulf natural gas, solar and wind potential).

As an independent exporter, it could become an “energy nation,” similar to Norway or Saudi Arabia, profiting from global energy markets.

4. Potential for Tailored Economic Development

Potential advantage:

Independence could allow the South to focus on regional infrastructure, agriculture, and tech investment without relying on federal priorities.

The South has a growing tech and logistics sector (Austin, Atlanta, Raleigh, Nashville) that could drive innovation under a unified economic policy.

5. Currency, Trade, and Global Presence

Potential advantage:

A Southern nation could create its own currency or adopt a dollarized system, allowing more flexibility in monetary policy.

Major ports like Houston, New Orleans, and Savannah could boost trade revenue.

6. National Security and Defense Industry

Potential advantage:

The South hosts a large share of U.S. military infrastructure and personnel (e.g., Fort Bragg, Pensacola, Norfolk).

It could theoretically become a strong regional military power.

Been saying this for a long time. There is nothing the corrupt and insane fools in DC offer the South except body bags and wheel chairs for the sons of Dixie. Southern boys form the bulk of the actual combat forces of the US military. Southern boys pay the prices for the plundering of foreign countries that DC insiders and their spoiled pups love so much.

WAKE UP Dixie and throw these bums out on their ear!

They acted like gentlemen because they were the true americans, fighting for the true values, not the degenerate Yankee invaders. Unfortunately, for the US and the world, the degenerates won and now rule in DC and the whole world suffers from their malice and greed.
