Whether or not an ethnostate is good depends on the ethnicity of the people of the ethnostate.

    The American civil war was about states rights (states right to white supremacy)

    Our new government['s]…foundations are laid, its cornerstone rests upon the great truth, that the negro is not equal to the white man; that slavery—subordination to the superior race—is his natural and normal condition. This, our new government, is the first, in the history of the world, based upon this great physical, philosophical, and moral truth.

      States rights people hate it when pointing out slavery was enshrined in the state constitutions as a requirement for being part of the confederacy.

      Or when showing the south was pushing the north to ignore their states rights by forcing them to only follow southern slavery laws
