It's pure toxic & naked Southern Confederacy ethos:
2025 NSS is the logical outcome of an outdated Southern Confederate ethos. It revives themes of cultural purity, hierarchical order, and hemispheric dominance, which stand in tension with modern democratic values of diversity, equity & inclusion.

In Maryland, it's only been in the last decade or so that we've managed to dump our Taney statues. It would be nice to think that if there's a republic that survives, its rescuers won't cast any of Roberts to hang around, shaming us for a century or more.
If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.
