NeoConfederate Culture
DIR By: Confederacy of Turkducken
Date: September 5, 2015, 11:28 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
This page would be dedicated to official postings regarding the
culture of individual States. If this proves to be liked, it
would be nice to get it pinned.
Some things to post would be: Popular Music, Art, Sports
Culture, local traditions, popular sayings in the State, TV or
Radio Shows, or anything else that could be considered relevant.
However this could just turn into a thread where we share music,
if that's the case it should be moved to the Arts discussion.
While I find it very tempting to do nothing but make my personal
favorites the popular music in my State, I'm actively trying to
find songs, art, etc. that actively reflect the State, and while
I'm not going to enforce that on anyone, I would like to say
please try.
If this is a nice idea we should get it pinned.

The Last Laugh
By Wilfred Owen
‘O Jesus Christ! I’m hit,’ he said; and died.

Whether he vainly cursed or prayed indeed,
The Bullets chirped—In vain, vain, vain!

Machine-guns chuckled—Tut-tut! Tut-tut!

And the Big Gun guffawed.
Another sighed,—‘O Mother,—mother,—Dad!’
Then smiled at nothing, childlike, being dead.

And the lofty Shrapnel-cloud

Leisurely gestured,—Fool!

And the splinters spat, and tittered.
‘My Love!’ one moaned. Love-languid seemed his mood,

Till slowly lowered, his whole face kissed the mud.

And the Bayonets’ long teeth grinned;
Rabbles of Shells hooted and groaned;
And the Gas hissed.
I Hear America Singing
By Walt Whitman[/center]
[center]I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear,
Those of mechanics, each one singing his as it should be blithe
and strong,
The carpenter singing his as he measures his plank or beam,
The mason singing his as he makes ready for work, or leaves off
work,
The boatman singing what belongs to him in his boat, the
deckhand singing on the steamboat deck,
The shoemaker singing as he sits on his bench, the hatter
singing as he stands,
The wood-cutter’s song, the ploughboy’s on his way in the
morning, or at noon intermission or at sundown,
The delicious singing of the mother, or of the young wife at
work, or of the girl sewing or washing,
Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,
The day what belongs to the day—at night the party of young
fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.[/center]

New Dothan only listens to Rush. As music inspired by Ayn Rand
is clearly the best.

Carolinians listen to jazz, big band, and classical. None of
this garbage people listen to today. As for TV, it's very
diverse, with comedy, news, kids' shows, reality shows, movies,
documentaries, and a history channel that actually shows
history! Whoa! But there are some oddities, such as a
subscription TV service that shows lessons for languages other
than Italian and English. There are also so many people
interested in politics that the government created a free
channel, set to channel 1, that shows what's going on in
parliament 24/7. The channel can be picked up in the Carolina
Alliance, eastern Dreobaca, northern West Pheoncia, and Southern
areas of the Reich. Although one man in DEN reported being able
to tune to the channel, no evidence of this has been found.

---------------------------------------------------------
[center]Amerikanisches Reich / "Amerikaner" Culture[/center]
[center]Music[/center]
Most popular (non-military)
Nationalsozialistische-Partei-approved music:
Composers (all works of the below are Party-approved):
Ludwig von Beethoven
Richard Wagner
Anton Bruckner
Hans Pfitzner
Johann Sebastian Bach
Antonio Vivaldi
Johannes Brahms
Performers and conductors:
Hans Hotter
Herbert von Karajan
Clemens Krauss
Elly Ney
Li Stadelmann
Katharina Schüttler
Marlene Dietrich*
Teddy Stauffer
*Banned in the Third Reich, although she began her career in
Germany and was regarded as one of the era's most gifted
singers, for 'defecting' to America and appearing in Hollywood
productions. However, since the AR is much less concerned that
art be "essentially German" in all ways, and is, of course, in
North America, so she has been posthumously 'rehabilitated'.
Note: Despite the somewhat dated emphasis on orchestras and big
bands, with the exception of female solo vocalists, popular
Reich music is not mostly classical and is usually composed for
dancing in clubs. Swing music is common and much-loved, and is
not prohibited by the Party, but is somewhat looked down upon as
"degenerate" in the upper echelons of the state.
As in most other places, classical and baroque music is seen as
"highbrow", and in most citizens' lives it is reserved for
special nights out at the symphony. It is also often played in
public buildings and on public transport.
Opera, however, is rather popular in all venues and forms, and a
"pop opera" genre has emerged as a challenger to other pop
music.

Wagner's Ring des Nibelungen, usually considered the finest work
of 'classical' composition in the Reich, though it has been
argued by some Reich critics that its primary value is its
essentially Teutonic character above all else

[center]Religion[/center]

Generally either Southern (typical of RL North Carolina), or
German, depending on the parentage of the citizen and the
primary language spoken in their home when they grew up.
