The jealous Yankee hates the Southern man for his liberties and culture.

The insidious Yankee has no culture to call his own. To him, "culture" is a crude affectation of old-time Europe. He visits the Opera, sung in a language he can't understand. He views art by the masters of old Europe, not comprehending in the slightest its meaning or import. The Yankee has NO genuine culture of his own. He DESPISES the South for having a genuine culture of its own (music, cuisine, literature) that it has exported to the delight of the entire world.
The Yankee LOATHES the Southern man for his liberties! The Southern man holds his liberties dear. The jealous Yankee is hemmed in always by his own self-loathing, which manifests itself in constant government regulation (his government being one of laws created by the people, as is ours). He has few liberties, even spurning the most natural liberty of all: the freedom to protect oneself from imminent danger! (i.e. the preposterous abomination known as the "duty to retreat") As such, the Yankee REVILES liberty itself, and is HORRIFIED by the freedoms that the Southern man has maintained for himself!
True or false: The despicable YANKEE fears culture and liberty, those two things that the Southern man CHERISHES!!

This sounds like something you pulled off an 1850s editorial page.
False. There is a lot of culture in the north. Anyone who has ever been to parts of New York City could say that.
Also, rural areas of the north such as Western Pennsylvania, Southern Illinois, and Upstate New York are conservative and redneck as frick. Aside from some culinary changes, it's hard to distinguish someone from the Catskills vs someone from the Ozarks.

Some of the biggest rednecks I've ever met were in New England, particularly Connecticut. Redneckism is not exclusive to nor even more prevalent to the South.

Just because you don't understand it, doesn't mean everyone can't. And opera isn't an affectation. It's a high art. High art is what we should strive to enjoy.

A lot of Southern music and food culture was created by the large black population here and adopted by whites over time.

There's nothing wrong with low art. It's fun to enjoy. But to mock high art as purely elitist betrays a wanton lack of sophistication which should not be emulated merely for popularity's sake.

he closed his diary by declaring his “unmitigated hatred to Yankee rule—to all political, social, & business connection with Yankees, & to the perfidious, malignant, & vile Yankee race.”
Quote is his last entry in his diary, a suicide note of Edmund Ruffin : in June 1865, fired a kind of last shot of the war—he wrapped the Confederate flag about his shoulders and committed suicide at his son’s Redmoor plantation.
I just thought this would be a nice addition to the topic. life and death of edmund ruffin
