Nah, hte calvinist god loves you because you work hard and you work hard because god loves you WASP shit came out of the north. The evangelical fascism is an American local product dating to like hte mid/late 1800s and the second great revival. It's a whole complicated thing, mostly grew out of the necessity to create a society that could view slavery as a virtue. In both places it's very much post-Calvinist protestantism and it's attitudes on labor, society, and being a shit to your neighbors.
Yes, it was derived out of the North, my issue is the singularness that the narrative ascribes to that northern Puritanism. Like you said, it’s a complicated beast with a lot of different inputs but the way the narrative gets presented, it’s everything descends from the Puritans. Like, Jamestown predates the northern settlements but they weren’t puritans.
