The League of the South is led by cultural conservatives, many of whom are Southern Baptists. Not surprisingly, its "Declaration" also denounces "the corrupt and sterile national culture" which is "violent and profane, coarse and rude, cynical and deviant" and "repugnant to . . . every people with authentic Christian sensibilities." The League announces its hatred of "profanity and obscenity in the arts and literature" and calls for a return to "our" cultural inheritance of "the permanent things that order and sustain life: faith, family, tradition, community, and private property; loyalty, courage, and honour." The League’s Declaration also expresses a certain hatred for "an overbearing government that acknowledges no limits to its power." Such declarations go a long way toward explaining the ultra-leftist SPLC’s hatred of this organization and anyone associated with it in any capacity.
On the League’s Web site is a "Statement to the Rest of the World" on "What the Traditional South Wants and Doesn’t Want." The listing of "What We Don’t Want" appears to be a good gauge of what exactly it is that the League of the South really hates. Their list of "What We Don’t Want" consists of:
Perpetual war for perpetual peace and "more Southern blood [shed] for the advancement of the American empire.
To rule the world.
To engage in unfair trade practices . . . through the establishment of protective tariffs.
To extend "most favored nation" status to any country.
To force "the Southern way" on any people anywhere.
To continue the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq or to go to war with Iran.
To go to war against any nation except in self defense.
To continue outsourcing Southern jobs to other countries . . .
To continue to live in a "godless, multicultural American Empire."
"Multiculturalism," keep in mind, is a synonym for "political correctness" and all of its absurdities and tyrannies.
