Cultural progressives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina want to change the name of the Dixie Classic Fair.

They say the word “Dixie” is offensive.

Councilman James Taylor told FOX8 that some folks find the word “offensive” and some folks are “angry” with the name. He said that as a progressive city – they need a name that “everyone can appreciate.”

The fair is just the latest victim of a cultural cleansing of the Southern States by angry liberals wound up tighter than a pair of Daisy Dukes.

They’re trying to dig up a dead Confederate general in Memphis. They want to sand blast Robert E. Lee’s face off the side of Stone Mountain, Georgia. And Lord only knows what they want to do with Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben.

The Dixie Classic Fair has been around since the 1950s – and nobody around town seems to be all that irate – according to FOX8. They said their reporters could not find a single person who took offense at the name.

“I thought it was ridiculous,” resident Dina Nelson told the television station. “I mean, there’s no reason to change the name of the Dixie Classic Fair. I mean, it’s a Southern name – but there’s nothing racist about it.”

If the cultural cleansers succeed in their quest to ban the word Dixie - don't be surprised if they start banning Dixie Cups and Winn Dixie and the Dixie Chicks.

Film at 11.... 😟

Dixie defined

Southerners - Proud to call it home. Where cotton grows and Hospitality shows

Minorities - Hate

Above the Mason Dixon - Toothless Inbreeders.


And I drink from RED solo cups. I guess the Choctaws will be upset soon.

I'm fine with banning the Dixie Chicks. They are liberals

And then Bruce Jenner.....


I no longer have a DIXIE.

I thought he didn't have the balls to chop it off

George Takei likes red sulu cups.

Are the Dixie Chicks still around? I thought they had already been defacto banned years ago.

There was a lot of discussion around the use of the slogan Heart of Dixie on Alabama license plates anout 10 years ago. It was decided to phase it out.

My thought is that it's a less divisive term than some others or iconography, like the battle flag of Northern Virginia. Honestly, it's really not something you hear spoken or see written around here very much.

I suspect interest will dwindle in expunging it because people just won't care that much in the end.

I may seek out some other opinions on this.

I'm sorry.

That's why he bought a telefunken U47

I tend to think of the term 'dixie' as being pretty harmless...to me, it connotes rednecks or dukes of hazard mental images....a caricature of a region -- with a delightful song that reminds of the simple-ness of the losing side of the Civil War...much less than some Southern separatist ditty or celebration of slavery. The word seems innocent enough to me.

suck my Dixie...
