Yankeedom’s origins lie in Puritanism, which is centered around trying to control others and going on witchhunts. This is why they were kicked out of multiple countries before arriving as “Pilgrims” on the Mayflower in Massachusetts Bay. American Southerners do not have such an origin, or tradition of nosiness like those in the North do. They came to Jamestown and landed in the Chesapeake Bay as upper class Anglicans to mind their own business and grow tobacco. The Puritan origins of Northerners are why they are prone to SJW leftism, cancel culture and nanny state-ism. They are the originators of these concepts and have been doing it for hundreds of years now. The modern SJW fanatic is just the latest manifestation of the worst of Yankeeism.
