Definitely correlated with the CSA

very little people that iv talked to who dont like in the South know of the connection between Dixie and CSA

Dixie area in Utah is controversial for outsiders

dixie state university and dixie technical college

frankly most people who know the name Dixie would probably find it more relating to the Dixie plastic cups than the nickname of the south

I agree with zilla

I also say not Dixie because it wouldn’t just be the South in the same way today. There’s dozens of states that have similar values and beliefs which are mainly heartland states

that is true, as Dixie is derived from part of the term Mason Dixon Line

tho in this scenario it would be funny. the US west was an enemy of the South in the 1st Civil War, and now they would be an ally for the most part

Somebody has never heard of the Green Berets.

well adapted to in the sense of combating against it, not using it themselves

the way the US has dealth with Guerrilla Warfare for the past 60 years has been throw more bodies at the ambush than the ambush can handle

Are you angry with your regional ruler? Are you angry enough to rebel against him? Would you like free airdrops of weapons and ammo? We're the Green Berets, and we're here to help.

That's because the politicians heading up the wars aren't interested in winning them. You start a civil war 2, they going to be vested in winning it.

Most modern wars are about feeding the Military Industrial Complex. Gotta make sure Bell and Boeing get those juicy military contracts.

its more than just what the politicians want, also has to do with military doctrine as well

as the US military isnt designed to fight against guerrilla warfare either as well

its still designed as if it is expected to go to WW2 levels of mass battles against another large nation

Oh, we can. We just do the exact same thing we did last time. South would look like Tokyo during WW2

Homes? Gone.

Fields? Agent Orange.

Cities? Napalm.

and then by doing so, draw in other nations who wouldnt be so happy about the US committing active warcrimes against its own populace

Not saying I like it, but theres a reason we don't do that stuff to other countries, and those reasons have everything to do with politics.

Like who? China? Russia?

Nukes.

then that becomes MAD scenario

the US doesnt get to escape MAD

Right, neither do they, which is precisely why they *won't* intervene.

then you are mistaken, Russia and China are both interested in making blows against the US, and they will take whatever opurtunity they can to hurt the US, especially during a Civil War

No, what they'll do is use the opportunity to take all the land adjacent to them. China will devour Taiwan, Japan, the Phillipines, Laos, Cambodia. Russia will take all it's neighboring states (Latvia, romania, ect.)

you also realise that Russia's been poking into regions more than their neighbors, they've been poking into Alaskan airspace, the moment the oppurtunity arrises they would make an attack on Alaska while the US is heavily distracted

Nukes.

then the US risks destroying itself

We'd be destroyed anyways, why not take them with us?

nukes arent as much of a threat as they were 40 years ago, everyone has them now, nothing more than a vieled threat

Oh, they aren't? Why not?

because, with everyone making their own nukes, they've also been developing anti-nuke defenses

And you know of some that work?

well, since nukes are missile based, all you have to do is look at Isreals missile defense network, has a really high success rate against enemy missile artillery

Except that nukes do something that conventional missiles don't: They leak radioactive fallout.
