Many people don't know that the Nazi party took many an inspiration from the American south. Even the Nazi's were taken aback in some cases by how harshly white Americans treated blacks and wrote segregation into their laws.

Nazis respected the confederacy, even looked up to it. "Where did all these fascists come from?" Well, they were always here because we didn't punish them enough. And project paperclip welcomed in Nazi members, even SS members, and gave them land.

The more Christian a state is, the more racist and reprehensible the shithole becomes.

In USA we often think North vs. South, but to me it's secular vs. Christian.

There are those that defend the more "reasonable" Christians, like Protestants, and not to lump them in with the "prosperity gospel" Christians, like Baptists. But remember, the "reasonable" Christians often finance and empower the fundies, and, even more importantly, they provide them with a veneer of rational respectability. However, they are just different faces of the same beast.

Protestants are to Baptists as Democrats are to Republicans, a more rational public face that helps to protect their "evil twin".
