Red Republics
Another great read from Identity Dixie
With the insane policies of the federal government being pushed and the betrayal by the supposedly “based” SCOTUS, many White conservatives around the American Empire have decided they’d like to leave it. Nowadays, while expressing my Southern Nationalist ideals, the uproar I hear from Dissident Right folks is asking not to be left out regarding secession. My main response to them is this – I’m not against a massive “Red Union” (as in, Red States vs Blue States), but I do not prefer it for several reasons.
For starters, I want a true nation-state. I want Southerners to be the majority of the population. In a Free Dixie of just the traditional South (from Oklahoma/Texas to Virginia and down to Florida) this would be the case, albeit blacks would be around 19% of the total population. I also want a confederation of sovereign Southern republics. In this, including all Red states (for instance, Iowa or Kansas) would be unfair to the rest of the “Red Union,” as the majority of the population would be in the South. Consider this for a second, Texas, Virginia, Georgia, and Florida would be by far the most populous states. Such a plan would work, but would lack the cultural cohesion that could be possible with just a Southern Confederacy. I also personally feel republics work best with smaller cohesive populations; thus, it would be better for everyone if we split along regional lines while still having some sort of defensive military pact. Therefore, I propose four different “Red-State” republics. Each republic would work to better the lives of its citizens and build a coherent, separate, and unique identity.
The first “state,” in its traditional sense of the word, I propose is a union between Ohio and Indiana. These two states share a common history and background. Both have a mixture of Yankee, Midlander, and Appalachia (Scots-Irish) cultural backgrounds. However, neither can be considered Southern, even if Indiana has some Southern cultural roots. Not to mention both states explicitly…
