pfft, your dad is a bandwagoner. My mom is a true hipster, having made her Facebook banner the actual Confederate flag (like, the 1861-1863 stars and bars) because she's a more intellectual racist than you find in literally 100% of her media and shares, I guess.

I once had a supervisor who swore that the Civil War was never about slavery, even when shown literal historical documents where Civil War leaders say "Yes, this is about slavery. We are very clearly and unambiguously stating in no uncertain terms that we are seceding because we loving love slavery and want to continue owning people as property."

I love how the Confederate constitution was an almost copy/paste of the US Constitution...except they banned states from getting rid of slavery.

State’s rights is obviously what they were fighting for.

• All historical writings whose purpose is to denigrate the origin, the spirit and the culture of the German Volk, or to dissolve the racial and structural order of the Volk, or that denies the force and importance of leading historical figures in favor of egalitarianism and the masses, and which seeks to drag them through the mud (Emil Ludwig);
  
• Books that advocate "art" which is decadent, bloodless, or purely constructivist (George Grosz, Otto Dix, Bauhaus, Felix Mendelssohn);
