The tenor of the ideology described reminds me of the tenor of the neo-Confederates. A lot of it sounds like something a neo-Confederate would say. Though I am not saying any of the legislators mentioned are neo-Confederate or even have neo-Confederate ideas. It probably a matter of convergent evolution in the thinking of both groups to a similar anti-modernism.

It does show that when someone wants to ridicule a belief they invoke the term secession which shows how secession is viewed by the general public, ludicrous.
