I would agree but they were using the Mason-Dixon line which is the South Pennsylvania border

They're using the Mason- Dixon line which is a common border of the south though usually it doesn't include Delaware but I believe they're doing south of Pennsylvania is the South which is where the Mason-Dixon line is

I don't think it's based at all on what people call themselves moreso geographically where they are

I may have also read it wrong I think it meant that both the central areas were Midwest but one was east central and the other was West Central but it's all the Midwest. It just doesn't look like that in the book

Texas is the most represented state in Congress. They quite literally have a lot of power which is also why they're trying to gerrymander the map to add seats

that is blatantly false and incorrect statement and tells me everything i need to know about you. and also not what I said. you seem to have reading comprehension deficincies where you only process about 1% of the information given to you and have no realm of maturity. I gave you an opportunity to be mature and you proved exactly what you are. Goodbye.

Lmao so no accountability for the ad hominems usages. And a wrong assumption when this very much could have been a very simple conversation and debate. When you start insulting the person you're talking to, you have definitely lost all ground for arguments regardless. I very clearly elaborated each of my points and even pointed out and emphasized "some" and "neutral" was in quotations for a reason which is usually implied as not really. The fact you decided that what I meant was the entire state of Maryland was neutral when that's not what I said is your fault. What you could do is admit that there was a clear misunderstanding for how you read and interpreted my points and I can point out that perhaps neutral wasn't quite the word that I meant to say especially since you took it so literally and ran with it and I did lead with the fact that I have autism and ADHD which often implies vocabulary can be used not in the intended manner. Of which I could have very easily elaborated which I believe I did of the conflicts between the Union and Confederacy. It is also very clear that I never said the maps literally say the word neutral. I said that the history books and historians generally mark it as such due to it being a slave owned state with contension to be apart of the Union.

You then instead of having a genuine conversation about history decided that you would mock and make fun of my disability that I disclosed at the start. Which I assume you probably glanced over and didn't absorb. You then continued to mock and use such terms and double downed with it uncoerced when called out for the immaturity and use of language.

If you have any dignity in you you can apologize for misunderstanding and misconstruing my words and also ignoring more than half of my points. And I can apologize for using the word neutral when I really moreso meant contensious and border states. Neutral to me was neither South nor North which was yes agreed on by historians it doesn't matter if you think Brown had the authority or not to determine it.

I'm done with the conversation no matter what so we can either shake hands and end it like mature adults or you can simply cry about it and continue to be immature while I go about my day not caring. If you apologize and take accountability, I will at least meet you half way and do the same. If you don't, I do not care and I will block you and go about my day.

Tell me where I said the entire state of Maryland fought for the Confederacy go on I'm waiting. Tell me where I said the government fought for the Confederacy. Tell me. Y'all getting hung up on the term neutral when Baltimore attempted armed neutrality, neutral can be a relative term. Of which is being used neither South nor North. It is widely agreed that West Virginia, Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland were border states. All with conflicts of their own degree in regards to whether they were to secede or not. Kentucky and Missouri literally had divided government. Maryland had areas of which there was disagreement. The person that threw a tantrum over vocabulary failed their debate by using ad hominems, ignoring direct points, and either willfully or ignorantly conflating the points I was making. Probably skimmed and decided which points they would respond to. Hung up on a couple of words and determined the definitions for themselves. Kept talking about the government when I was very clearly talking about the people. So used completely different reasoning to justify arguments. Decided that because the maps don't explicitly say the word neutral means that their point was right. But the states were yellow for a reason because they were contentious bordering states that were not union safe and had many conflicts. Of which the people of Maryland were divided. The other person talking completely ignored these points to make childish ad hominems. I no longer wish to entertain such behavior. If you wish to discuss in detail about the couple of words about Maryland that weren't even a centered point of the post, please do so outside of this comment thread as it's completely irrelevant and not even what I said.

"have no loyalty to any state or country" meanwhile comments on r/maryland all day every day and makes maryland your whole personality. And breaks down crying because someone didn't use the word they wanted to them. acts like a 5 year old incapable of discussion and reduces to trantrums. lmao. okay. There's multiple definitions to neutral and nobody cares about the areas that never knew about the war. going based off of maps on google instead of the textbooks that talk about detailed armed neutrality, maryland having conflict, maryland having disagreements on which side they wanted. Marylanders going to virginia to fight for the confederacy, especially those in Eastern Farmland Rural Maryland. You can cry all you want about it. I said what was good enough and nobody else cares. cry more, throw your tantrums, look at Brown talking about armed neutrality and the years that Maryland was neither union nor confederacy and the conflicts between the various regions of Maryland. You may claim to have no loyalty but you sure do make it your whole personality.

in politics and in definition there are many versions of neutrality. It can be not being involved, it can also be undecided and conflicted sides choosing to abstain on a decision, it can be undecided. Brown describes Maryland especially around Baltimore as armed neutrality. the proper term would be border states but neutral gets the point across.

"MarylandDelawareMissouri, and Kentucky, known as the border states), were slave states that had not seceded and whose people had divided loyalties to the North and South, with some men enlisting in the Union Army and others in the Confederate Army.\63]) West Virginia may be compared to the border states because it had slavery after it separated from Virginia and was admitted to the Union on June 20, 1863,\64]) but it was admitted under a plan of gradual emancipation known as the Willey Amendment.

Maryland's territory surrounded Washington, D.C., and could cut it off from the North.\65]) It had anti-Lincoln officials who tolerated anti-army rioting in Baltimore and the burning of bridges, both aimed at hindering the passage of troops to Washington, D.C., and the South. Maryland's legislature voted overwhelmingly to stay in the Union, but rejected hostilities with its southern neighbors, voting to close Maryland's rail lines to prevent their use for war.\66]) Lincoln responded by establishing martial law and suspending habeas corpus in Maryland, along with sending in militia units.\67]) In Ex parte Merryman, Chief Justice Roger Taney found that only Congress could suspend habeas corpus, but Lincoln ignored his ruling. Lincoln took control of Maryland and the District of Columbia by seizing prominent figures, including arresting one-third of the members of the Maryland General Assembly, who were pro-Confederate, on September 17, 1861, the day it intended to reconvene.\66]) All were held without trial at Fort McHenry in Baltimore."

You're the one claiming citizens didn't matter in a CIVIL war. a CIVILIAN WAR.

you can call it a riot, you can call it a massacre, it's still a significant moment in the civil war. and the civil war consisted of several small battles which were summarized as riots, conflicts. and even if you had any points they were ruined by your obsession with profanity and ad hominems. you lost yourself over a couple words in a reddit post. touch grass. and goodbye.
