Maybe. I don't think that we need to separate ourselves. The main argument used by southern rebels is about the injust taxes that the union take. This is about our federative pact. We pay a lot of taxes, and we get just a little percentage of that. The union needs to give more freedom and liberty to the states (our provinces). But, if the separatist movenment gets a lot of power in the future, I'd love to fight for it too.

Two friends of mine are affiliated to this movement, they donate money to the organizers, so they've gotten a associated personal card.
I think southerners are well represented in the executive for the first time in 25 years, a lot of congressman from Mid-West are also from South, they also have a lot of influence in the congress, what is great.

lol
I think Southern Brazil doesn't pay more taxes, São Paulo, Rio and Minas are the states contributing the most to the Union iirc. This is an impossible aim, will never happen and mainstream cities in the South are hardly different from the Southeast. Paraná has more in common with São Paulo, Rio Grande do Sul with Argentina and Santa Catarina with no one else. If anything Rio Grande do Sul should join Argentina, Paraná should join São Paulo and Santa Catarina be independent.
The big difference between Southern and Southeastern Brazil is that the former was less populated when post-independence immigration started so they have less colonial heritage, mainly on the countryside.

OP didn't say only southerners could vote,so...
BTW when the Confederate States of America tried to separate from the USA, it was the northerners who fought against it and kept the union together, something that I as a Paulista would also do if the South tried to become independent so your argument is pretty shitty.
I visit the South at least once a year and never seen anyone IRL defending such thing, only some cringey teenagers on the Internet do it.

Well, sure! I was just dissing the movement when I said it was a cringey teenager bullshit haha
But, as you said, it is a very small minority that defends it. As I said before, I go to Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina at least once a year because I fell in love for the south and consider it a second home and all the times I talked to southerners irl about it they all said it was a stupid thing and said they're not pro-independence.
