What is this food
they're all southern except Maryland.
Virginia should be southern, but it's not. Fuck Virginia.
I think its supposed to be a quesodilla of some kind
4 pound taco challenge
Confederate = Southern by default
So yes, Texas is Southern.
spiritually, maryland and virginia are not "south". geographically, virginia is south. maryland is more mid-atlantic.
texas is of its own culture, but yes you could consider it the south
the mason-dixon line. i believe all those states are technically southern, if my geography is still up to date.
"Old South" is defined by the slave states which would not include Florida as it was not a state at the time and Texas would be iffy as it was not a state but likely to be a slave one if it did. Maryland was a slave state but was not a confederate state in the war. Virginia was a slave state but split because of the war leaving West Virginia to be northern.
East Texas is southern. Southeast Texas is southern and Cajun.
Central Texas and north Texas are Texas but shade toward the south.
West Texas is Mexico
To me, if yiur state was part of the Confederacy, it's a Southern state.
TX is its own thing, like LA. VA gave up its Southern card a long time ago.
No to all of them
Can someone please explain america to me? How is there 50 different states ina single country? Which states are the most based?
Texas is Southwestern if you want to get technical, but culturally it's much closer to the West (cowboys, ranching, etc.) than it is to the South. But as the name southwest implies, these things aren't mutually exclusive.
Texas has awesome steaks.
Depends on how you define "south."
Mason-Dixon line? All south.
Confederacy? Maryland not south, although it would have been if it's state legislature wasn't arrested.
The only real alternate view is that Texas isn't south because "Texas is its own thing."
A state which is situated in the geographical southern end of USA is a southern state, user. But Texas is not a southern state. It should be its own country independent of USA.
probably most accurate answer. better than mine.
>spiritually, maryland and virginia are not "south".
You kidding me? 95% of Virginia is completely Southern in culture. Only NOVA isn't. But that's like saying Georgia isn't southern because Atlanta is a progressive city.
fuck off faggot anything north of Jacksonville Florida is a fucking yankee scum.
Texas was a state like 20 yrs before the civil war.
Fairfax ruins it
The states started from the individual English colonies. They each had their own government. They seceded from England and operated as independent countries, essentially. They came together to form a union, which has now become the United States.
Which ones are most based? The ones that are deep red right now and the ones that were in the Confederacy.
One of the only states that still has a firm identity to itself. Antebellum Virginia was a similar cultural enclave, which is why it was split up.
What do you want to know? Today most Americans identify only loosely with the state they live in. Prior to the Civil War and then the New Deal, there was a more cultural variety and regional loyalty.
No it doesn't. That's such a small portion of the state. If you live in Fairfax, go for a road trip sometime.
not so much these days dude. Northern aside, you're forgetting the vb/norfolk/hampton area, lynchburg (VT), charlotte, georgetown (not really southern in culture), richmond, charlottesville. it's gone bro
Texas is just Texas, I mean it is the biggest state behind the land grab that is alaska
If you can walk into a restaurant and get sweet tea that isn’t from a can then you’re southern.
>what is latitude???
But the whitest states are all deep blue how is that? I wouldn't care if my state was red if 50% of the people I see daily are nonwhite
I've only recently taken interest in america and it fascinates me. The constitution, the election process and of course mr. Trump.
>vb area
Completely southern. Why do you think it's not?
>Lynchburg area
dude lol
>VT
one of the most redneck colleges
>charlotte
what?
>georgetown
what?
>richmond
completely southern
>charlottesville
college town
>But the whitest states are all deep blue how is that?
Same way that Scandanavia is. People are generally dumb idealists who vote for progressive policies that CAN work, but only in white areas. Whereas the people down south that have to live with non-whites are like holy shit. They see the reality and vote red.
Why doesn't Texas like green chili or even know what it is.
Looks fucking delicious to me.
Amerifat confirmed.
>What makes it southern or not southern? What makes a state southern?
It's in the south....
The only state not really part of the south that extends into it is CA as a whole
Why is the KKK not a thing anymore? It seems like a solution to the blm problem.
texas' obese and frail population will be culled
I will see to it myself, cowards
i want this
I do declare
American Tex-mex imitation of a Mexican burrito in the form of a quesadilla
that's a lot bean and cheese
i think you're kidding yourself bro, you're viewing an alternate reality
Where do I find a girl that can finish a meal like that
Because they tried an actual armed insurrection in the 60s and got buttfucked. Half their membership are part of sting operations now.
Also they're a bunch of democrats, they're in line with what the left is currently doing because BLM and such are pushing for segregation again and the sneakier ones think they can piggy back off it.
anywhere in mexico no lie
Tex-Mex if for literal mutt niggers
fatties like you will be burned as fuel in coal plants
Texas is Texas. Might as well be their own country. Cattle and oil. Big hats and big guns. Arkansas, Mississippi, Luisiana, and Alabama are southern. Hillbillies. Whites and Blacks alike, sitting around doing nothing, getting eaten by mosquitos, eating biscuits and gravy for lunch after church.
Source: I've spent a lot of time in Texas, but I live in a true southern state, they are not the same.
i would murder a thousand niggers for that right now
Well enjoy. It's a big country and a lot of topics like eg the civil war are still very political. So depending on modern politics, people will have very different framing of the same events.
My opinion is that most Americans are, right now, going through a phase where ideological and economic affinities override regional culture. A single white girl in Atlanta will have similar loyalties to a single white girl in San Francisco. A guy with three kids and a mortgage in Alabama will probably get along with a similar guy from upstate new york.
Our cities and towns are highly stratified. That's something my father has told me, he recalls people mixing between social classes and professions much more than they do now. He was an engineer and his best friend in the 80's was a trucker who lived down the street. By the time I was grown up I don't think he spent time with anyone who didn't work in the same department at the same company.
Texas is southern but arguably southwest.
Virginia is an ex-southern state.
Maryland is by no standards a southern state culturally aside from the rural areas which every single state has. I've only ever seen hicks in Maryland who think that the Mason-Dixon line is still important and not effectively null after the civil war, claim that Maryland is still a southern state.
We are our own country. We have a separate power grid and military assets.
No Texas is Texas.
Living in Texas I absolutely despise the food here, nearest non-mexican non-steakhouse restaurant is a fucking olive garden 40 miles from here
I WANT TO EAT SOMETHING DIFFERENT YOU FUCKING MEXICANS AND YOUR TACOS AND FAGGYTAS
pic related. absolutely disconnected with reality/massive cognitive dissonance.
>most Americans identify only loosely with the state they live in
This is true, with the exception of Texas (in my experience).
Texas should delete all the fat people who live there
completely Deep Southern:
>Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina
solidly Southern
>Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas
majority-Southern (has Southern parts and Yankee parts)
>Florida, North Carolina
minority-Southern (used to be Southern, but now overrun by Yankees)
>Virginia
quasi-Southern (never part of Confederacy, but settled by Scotch-Irish, and deeply connected to Southern culture
>West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Arizona, Oklahoma
semi-Southern (not part of Confederacy, but enclaves of Southernist culture, in southern and/or Western parts of state
>Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland
meant to put Louisiana in Deep Southern as well
