    Yeah, I accept it may totally not be the case that there’s a significant connection. However, I didn’t mean to imply that I suspected there was some sort of organized group behind it; merely that a significant portion of CNs today inherited their views across generations from former Confederate soldiers. So, more that the current CN movement is, in part, the legacy of the Civil War, not that there’s been this secretive organization of Confederates that have been waiting across generations for the right moment to start a coup and “win” the war they lost 150 years ago.
