One of my friends, commenting in a roundabout way about the Kaepernick/kneeling during the anthem controversy and the fact that NASCAR is cracking down on possible protests. This same person put a small confederate flag in their profile picture: https://imgur.com/xUA7m0N I love my friends; honestly. But some of them I just don't engage with when it comes to stuff like this. In most cases, I really don't think it's racism, but just living in the south and growing up in "America gently caress yeah"/"love it or leave it" culture.

"Don't disrespect the US flag" means exactly jack poo poo coming from someone displaying an enemy nation's flag. I mean, "America, love it or leave it" is the exact opposite message from the CSA flag.

AlbieQuirky posted:"Don't disrespect the US flag" means exactly jack poo poo coming from someone displaying an enemy nation's flag. This is kind of a frustrating response, because it completely ignores that, for a large section of the South, the confederate flag is no longer seen as representing the civil war stuff, or at least not as solely or even mainly representing it. It's been turned into a symbol of Southern identity in general, pride in one's place of birth and culture, etc. It's one of the worst possible choices for such a symbol, but nobody using it ever got to pick the symbol. It'd be a lot easier if we could come up with some alternative symbol to communicate "I am from the South and feel like that's pretty awesome" that wasn't connected to "I believe that chattel slavery is cool and good."

This is pure bullshit. The Confederate flag didn't see a resurgence in use until the Civil Rights Movement started being taken seriously and was used as a symbol to say that they were not going to stand for the idea of black people being treated equally to white people. It is not, and has never been, a symbol of southern heritage going back generations. That is pure fiction that was made up out of whole cloth within many people's lifetimes. It is an active choice to use that symbol, one either of prejudice or of willful and purposeful ignorance, but it's a choice nonetheless. Anyone who wants to pretend that flag is about "heritage and not hate" can shove it right up their asses.

Who doesn't put anything to flavour things like oatmeal or grits? It would be like boiling a whole potato then eating it like an apple.

I do that. But since potatoes aren't my staple food and I don't do it often, potatoes still have that unique flavour for me. Also, I eat the skin, so maybe that's an additional texture that's cheating.

I grew up eating grits with nothing but some salt (and if you wanted to be really exotic about it, adding some butter) in them. Scrambled eggs and grits is good comfort food breakfast to me, ideally with some bacon on the side. People say chicken and dumplings is bland, too, but again comfort food to me.

Tried grits once, never again. The argument that 'oh you mustn't have had good ones' isn't enough to convince me to try thousands of bowls of the awful stuff to find the one that approaches palatable.

Southern grits are for people that find mayonnaise to be too exotic and spicy for their palates.

https://twitter.com/whosalexander/status/911367482459525120 Of course the most important thing to do now is point out that Puerto Rico is not a country.  But what even is a country? Is it an island? And what is a hurricane?  Some people preferred to just make incomprehensible "jokes".  Others were just sick of all these natural disasters happening at the same time. Why can't they spread them out a bit?  This guy believes that it's impossible to care about two things at the same time.  And many others just want you to know that they don't even own a television.
