Neo Confederatism

Neo Confederatism is the belief that the the South was just in fighting the American Civil War. People who believe this often believe that the South broke away from the Union to preserve the rights of states and individuals. This is, of course, utter bullshit, since the explanation makes absolutely no sense, and more importantly, when states seceded and formed the Confederacy, they openly stated the reason for their actions. If anybody wonders where this nonsense comes from, it was created by people who believed the Confederacy was just in fighting the war and then started making this shit up after the war ended to try and make the Confederacy not look as bad as it really was.
