One of the most disheartening trends during these past few months, with the renewed attacks on the South, has been the number of native Dixians who are joining the chorus to destroy our country once and for all, and serves as further proof as to why, out of all the horrors of Yankee rule, the hijacking of the education system was, and still is, one of the most pervasive and cruel. The Yankee education system never failed; the fruits of its success are being revealed as we speak – to turn Dixian children into obedient pseudo-Yankees. They are eager to show our conquerors they are on their side, hence the support for bringing down statues, removing the flag, dropping The Dukes of Hazzard from television and so on. To see Yankees behave like this is one thing, there’s a reason they’ve been at war with us since, at least, 1830 and fits into their desire to remake the world in their own image. But, seeing our own people do so is deeply depressing because their actions represent a bitter betrayal.
There is one event in history this reminds me of: the Hellenizing Jews who fought alongside the Seleucid Empire during the Maccabean Revolt of 167-160 BC. First, a bit of historical background. When Alexander the Great destroyed the Achaemenid (Persian) Empire, he had planned to create a new empire based around a synthesis of Greek and Persian culture, with Babylon as its capitol. His early death, however, put an end to those plans and his generals would carve up his empire into their own personal kingdoms.
One of these new kingdoms, the Mesopotamian and Syrian based Seleucid Empire, would wind up with possession of Judea. Wanting to create a united empire, Antiochus IV launched a policy of Hellenization, aiming to make his kingdom more Greek. The Jews were particularly targeted here, with women even being executed for circumcising their sons (before anyone spergs out on me, this was before Christ came, so it was still required). The response from the Jews under the Seleucids was twofold. A few stayed faithful and would revolt under the leadership of Mattathias, a rural Jewish priest turned partisan. The revolt he led is known to history as the Maccabean Revolt. Hanukkah would arise from his revolt.
But, many Jews would not only refuse to revolt, they would openly embrace the policy of Hellenization in hopes of gaining approval from their rulers, openly defying the Mosaic law and would even brag about doing so. They would even go as far as to bring pagan idols into the Second Temple, offering sacrifices to them. All of this was done in an attempt to appease their new rulers in the hope of gaining their favor. For the Hellenized Jews, gaining favor, i.e. personal wealth, was worth turning their back on God and their culture. They loved their own selves more than they did the traditions of their fathers or even God. They saw that a new order had arrived, one where the Jews would be under Hellenistic rule and responded accordingly. They envisioned a world where Jews were little different from their pagan neighbors. All of the blood spilled to prevent that very thing from happening meant nothing to them. Sound familiar?
Much like the Hellenized Jews, the “Yankeeized” Dixian realizes that the world has changed and that all assemblance of home rule and our uniqueness is vanishing. But instead of pushing back, they give in. For some, there is an ideological component to this, hence why the takeover of colleges in the 90s was so important. If you are under 40, you no doubt heard the Confederacy was pure evil and the world would be better off without traditional Dixians. That can only go on for so long, before the politics of a nation are drastically changed, and we are seeing that right now.
But, there’s also just some plain old self-preservation as well. It’s the same reason why we’ve seen so many Christian figures either completely apostate or adopt heretical views regarding human sexuality, they think that’s how they’ll get the approval of the new order. And, they very well may. However, even if they do (and remember that many will end up with nothing to show for it), it will come at the cost of their souls and identity.
Much like the politics of second century BC Judea created a rift between the Hellenizers and those that hung tight to their identity and religion, the politics of Dixie is quickly shaping up between a battle between Scallywags and Nationalists. By giving us home rule, or at the very least allowing celebrations of our identity, the Empire was able to maintain a middle ground here – think of the folks who fly both the Federal and Confederate flags – but the ground under which that position could be maintained has collapsed. Our choice is now to either work towards independence or to be swallowed by the Empire and support the very same politics they do. Independence is the only way to prevent Savannah from becoming Boston with fewer people and better weather.
Maintaining one’s identity under occupation is incredibly difficult, hence why the Irish language was almost extinct in Ireland in 1916 and was only able to come back thanks to decades of hard work by dedicated activists, and even this was done after independence was gained. And, that is why the presence of those that actively seek to erase our identity among our own kind is so dangerous, they are behaving like the Jews under the Seleucid Empire that would bring pagan idols into the Temple and make sacrifices to them and then go on to flaunt their breaking of the Law of Moses. Be it motivated by an ideological self-hatred or simple greed, the results are the same – the disappearance of Dixians as a distinct people. To allow this to happen would be to spit on the graves of our fathers and grandfathers. So, we must be like the Maccabees who hung tight to the traditions and religion they inherited, defying foreign occupation – to be like the Hellenizer Jews of the same time is a fate worse than death.

O I’m a good old rebel, now that’s just what I am. For this “fair land of freedom” I do not care at all. I’m glad I fit against it, I only wish we’d won, And I don’t want no pardon for anything I done.
Unfortunately, Scalawag-Minting Inc. has been going on for a very long time.
Why, my own mama, a sweet Christian lady, attended UNC in the 1950s, no less, and forever turned, politically, against her own kind.
Oh, yes, already in the 1950s they were training White Southerners to despise themselves!
Nowadays, in North Carolina, I am one of the few I ever meet who will identify as a ‘Southerner’.
No, most will identify as anything but, and if you bring it up to them that they are ‘Southern’, they admit it, for politeness’s sake, and it goes no further than that!
But, as the author of this article points out – we are not the first to be subjugated, and we not the first people to have to reconstruct ourselves and our community.
To my mind, the question is – do we have the energy or interest to reconstruct?
To put it plain’, I cannot find much interest in North Carolina, or Dixie, in White Southern Tarheels.
After years on this issue, and watching and listening carefully, I really do not think they care, so long as the local government is not breaking into their ranch home to confiscate something.
I really do not think they care.
Carpetbaggers notwithstanding, Scalawags and Cucks are our biggest problem. If we had real Southern state governments, none of this would be happening. We’d also have the political machinery needed to take advantage of the C-19 epidemic and the rioting and chaos in Yankeedom and Cascadia, to secure our independence, or at least a better position, politically.
Where on the victimhood stack should we place the modern Dixian? Y’all are a bunch of Jerusalem global messianic monarchist cucks. Not reconstructed? … indeed! Please!
What happened to the Southern heritage of sovereign Republics and confederacy with the current globalist modernity Dixian? Cucks!!
…..
….wut?
I wholeheartedly agree with you about education and bring it up here and other places often, its hard to explain to boomers who never had to sit through the horrors of those Federal indoctrination camps, the extent of the impact they had upon us and how that should be our number one priority above all others, they for the most part with some exceptions, just shrug it off and tell you to go read a book and that will fix it. Ok Boomer.
Even on this site a boomer that actually had went through the trouble of creating a Southern curriculum for his children, when my heart soared for a breif moment, and earnestly asked him to get with some others and flesh it out so that we could maybe, finally, have a genesis of a Southern home school. It was a stupid hope, after an entire generation running head first into the boomer mentality, so much so that we all collectively gave up on them, said Ok Boomer and moved on, its actually my fault for getting my hopes up honestly. He litterally told me to go do it myself in the true boomer fashion. I guess I will after I go grow my own crops, mill it into bread, then mine some ore, smelt it into my own car, drill for some oil and refine it into gasoline for it etc. Its just a lost cause with them. So now his rightly educated children can go die and be thrown into the ditch next to me, congratulations I guess. He probably feels he did his part, damn the other children. Its my fault for asking really, I should have known better. But that is the story again and again when I go places looking for anwsers to this problem you have rightly identified, thinking I could maybe throw my help behind their efforts or at least raise awareness for the absolute need of it.
So after all of the suffering we endured and all the long fight for homeschooling, we just accomplished moving the yankee education into our very homes. Although I try and preach to our younger generations about our history, people and culture at the end of the day its just a case of the miseducated trying to educate them and it will never be effective enough. I just do my best to speak from my Southern heart, but I lack the skills needed to convert that into a teachable curriculum, which was the entire point of what they did to me in those schools.
So although I did not read anything you said about the Jews, I have had enough of THEIR history and THEIR culture for ten lifetimes and I cant stomach any more. I get the meaning of what you are saying about them and yes I also see it happening around us, but why use them as an example when our people have had the same experience, i’m sure in our thousands of years of existence? We need the history of OUR people, our journey to the shores of America and what we were seeking and why. Why Liberty and freedom from state run churches was so important to us. Why WE overthrew OUR king’s yoke. Why we chose to found a Confederation of States, a Republic and not something else, what lead us to that wisdom, what shaped our collective soul that we all share on OUR long journey. If we are to educate our children it must be in that manner, not from a third person perspective like the yankees teach us, but excatly what it at it’s heart is supposed to be, the history of OUR people and OUR journey to where we are today told by OUR people to OUR children. If its not taught in that manner it will not resonate with our children. They can memorize all dates and names for a letter grade and still turn their back on us because they dont feel connected to us, they dont see themselves in the story or understand they are right now writing the next chapter. It will just be another boring thing they read for a grade, not the living history of THEM, that they are the future and this is THEIR past.
That is the only good thing about my “education” at the hands of a Federal Judge who hated me, please hear me when I stress the importance of our history being from our standpoint, by US and for US alone, because I have a PHD in what is wrong with yankee education, I know what I am talking about. It must be by us and for us and spoken from our perspective. “Then WE fought here”, “Then THEY did this and WE responded by doing this, for these reasons so that WE might be free” It must be taught in that manner to our children, trust me I was one and desperately craved that.
In addition to being the best way to teach our children, to help them understand they are OUR children and that they are a people, it will curtail 99% of their efforts of subversion the yankee marxists use. How can an African or a yankee teach such a curriculum worded like that without choking every time they say “we” when reading from our history books? It will open so many doors for us defending ourselves from outside subversion, how can a yankee claim legitimaticy to teach OUR children when they are distinctly another, race, tribe, nation, culture and all the rest? Those lines must be drawn without a doubt, there must be a clear definition of who excatly, to a man, we are or we will die by magic dirt and carpetbaggers.
Doing what I am saying will close the door to them in our disscusions and leave them open to attacks of racism, genocide and cultural appropriation. Once we are clearly defined, then we can begin to act as a people, then when these white carpetbaggers in Virginia are removing our statues we can call them out for racists. We can finally say, without a doubt who gets to call themselves Virginians and who are racists appropriating our culture. Thats just for starters, being a clearly defined people that anyone cant just move here and claim to be, will protect us in so many ways that I could never fit them in this already lengthy reply and it all begins with educating our children and making it clear that they are a people, unique and finite in this universe. Then those kids will feel the anger they lack now when they see a yankee walking OUR streets, drinking sweet tea and cooking cajun food pretending to be them. Cutural appropriating racists. They will have an Identity all their own that no other can ever lay claim to, an Identity Dixie.
Thank you for taking the time to write this, you are dead on in the importance of education. Maybe you can start something, Lord knows I try, but I simply have the wrong education for that. Maybe you can drag these stubborn boomers to the table and take to heart my contribution about the absolute necessity of it being told by us, from our standpoint, as a unique race, people and culture and how much that will protect us from subversion and collectively becoming a wordly, dead church and may God bless you in your efforts.
Dear Michael,
While I can’t address everything you wrote in the above comment with the limited amount of time allotted me, I think it important to, and therefore will, take the time to address at least a couple of the highlights. But before I begin, let me just say that I love your passion; Lord knows I wish we (Southrons) had more of it (albeit, a more disciplined version) as a people and a nation. That said, let us begin.

Well, I don’t know who exactly you’re referring to but, inasmuch as you’re lumping yours truly in with the Boomer generation, perhaps it would be helpful should I take the time to disabuse you of the notion.
It is true that I was born in ’65 – November of ’65 to be more exact – but that little fact makes me a “Boomer” about as much as the fact I was born at Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego makes me a “Prune Picker,” if you know what I mean. Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with being (and this is where your head is going to start spinning in circles, but whatever) a Boomer, or a “Prune Picker,” for that matter.
Moreover, what makes you think the Boomer generation didn’t have to sit through the horrors of the Federal indoctrination camps you rightly denominate such? You think that, because the (Yankee) schools they attended weren’t, in the majority of cases, as “far gone” as those you attended, that they weren’t nevertheless federal/Yankee indoctrination camps and therefore horrors in their own right? If that is what you think, then let me, again, at least make the effort to disabuse you of the (false) notion.
In a very real sense Boomers of Southron extraction have more to complain about than you have in this particular vein. As though their being forced to attend the federal “public schools” for fear of facing truancy charges (and all that that entails) weren’t enough, they also faced forced school bussing and integration during their formative years, while simultaneously having to deal with the real effects of Brown v. Board of Education, and so on and so forth. But this federal indoctrination crap goes way way back beyond the Boomer generation, and even beyond the so called “Silents.” Back when I was all wound up (about as tight as you are) about this ungrateful state of things, I often referred to the so called “Greatest Generation” as in fact “The Worst.” It took me a long time, and a LOT of study and reflection, to get over myself on that point, but I finally did and I’ve never looked back. The reason I’ve never looked back is because it finally dawned on me that despising my forbears for “their mistakes” and their “guilt” was, in fact, a big part of the program of indoctrination you so vehemently (and rightly) protest. What I’m getting about, if you haven’t yet figured it out, is that you need to get hold of your passions and keep them in check. For as Noah Webster once wrote (“To a Young Gentleman Commencing His Education”), “…but reason, without revelation and without cultivation, is a miserable guide; it often errs from ignorance, and more often from the impulse of passion.” Internalize the meaning of all that and you’ll be way ahead of the game, I promise.
You further wrote:
With all due respect, brother, you have a way of missing the point of these little exchanges entirely. Allow me to spell it out for you in more explicit terms:
Point (1), what, in God’s Holy Name, makes you think someone like me hasn’t experienced and faced down precisely the same ‘list of grievances’ you allude to above, and then some? When persons like me say things like ‘why don’t YOU do it?’, we’re not literally suggesting you do it (whatever “it” may be) all by your lonesome; we’re trying to help you to see things the way they really are, and not the way you wish them to be; we’re trying to get you to see that we’re all in essentially the same boat facing the same challenges and virtually unscalable obstacles.
I’ve been where you are; I know what it’s like; I had to get over myself and move on, or die. That’s really the bottom line, and that’s what I’m trying to help you to see. But I’ll tell you what, in the next few weeks and months, when I have successfully harvested my own crops, milled it into bread, mined my own ore and smelt it into my own engine blocks and all that, I’ll be very happy to sit down in my leisure time and write a series of articles on proper education as I understand it, or, rather, on how to avoid being Spoiled by a False Education (See here: ), while simultaneously offering sage advice on how best to avoid succumbing to the ever-present Temptation to Improper Reduction (See here:)
But of course all of the above was written “in true Boomer fashion,” as you insist.
P.S.: Points (2), (3), (4), etc., I’ll have to get back to later, as my precious leisure time has come to an abrupt end for the day – I get up with the chickens and crow like a rooster for a couple of hours every day, then it’s ‘back to the ol’ grind,’ as it has been for me the entirety of my adult life. So if you’re feeling like the “Lone Ranger” here, well, don’t.

Well, we tried – hard – in 1860 to break from the Scandinavian, North German, Pilgrim scum – but as Stonewall so aptly noted our politicians wouldn’t go North and put and end to the matter when they clearly could (esp after the first battle) – they settled for a purely defensive war of attrition with the plaintive “We just want to be left alone” virtue signaling that fell on deaf European ears. The Limey’s were a thin reed and the French has been stiffed by the US when they weren’t repaid for their assistance in the so called “American” revolution. Once bitten ….
There are no more tough Confederate veterans – just a regional group of Red States going purple with quaint accents and cucked Republican political leaders.
