If you joke about how you wish the south had been allowed to secede, the only conclusion I can come to is that you're a screaming racist who is completely ignorant of civil rights history. Don't get it twisted, y'all. White folks in the north had basically NOTHING to do with that progress.

This is the bazillionth reason why no one should flippantly talk about getting rid of the southern states. We should never turn our backs on the powerful organizing happening there. We should not cast away the activists working to make change — and who in doing so risk way more than we do up north.

Yes we should not have allowed them to immediately undo all the progress. And we should not allow them to do it this time either.
