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.

Only 11 states seceded, the other two stars represent aims of violent expansion against the US even if you hold that secession was extremely good. Why do they hate our country and our troops?Axetrain posted:I know everyone already knows but I still feel compelled to point out the pyramids were not built by slaves. And also the goal isn't taking down anything built by slaves, it's removing things that honour slave owners.

I once had a supervisor who swore that the Civil War was never about slavery, even when shown literal historical documents where Civil War leaders say "Yes, this is about slavery.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."

Alexander Stephens, the confederate vice president, is the most famous one to give one of these "no, lemme be clear, slavery is good and we are doing this because we are white supremacists" speeches. Yes, he's still in the national statuary hall in the capital, alongside pals Robert Lee and Jeff Davis. Why wouldn't he be??

Yeah but you're not that person so you can't really say you know what they were thinking when they said slavery is good and they were fighting to keep it. Meanwhile look at this Youtube comment I saved

The red background represents the blood of Christ. The white circle in the middle represents the protection of God. And the black, 4-armed cross looking thing in the middle represents a big hug from Jesus and God at the same time we totally swear! Why are you so mean to us about our heritage?

The AWB actually tried that one. The three sevens represent the number of final victory and the Trinity, to oppose the number 666, the number of the anti-Christ, red represents Jesus' blood and the struggle of the Christians, and the inner white circle symbolizes the purity of the Holy Spirit and eternal life. Of course it does. No other inspirations or cultural references there.

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.

To say nothing of how salty they were about the Fugitive Slave Act "Not only can you Northerners not ban slavery in the South, if a slave escapes from us YOU GOTTA SEND 'EM BACK YOU PROMISED gently caress your states' rights to not have slavery too"

Did Lady Liberty own slaves, commit acts of genocide, rape and maim, or take up arms to fight within a traitor army? If so, then yes - tear it down. If not, I think it's ok to remain standing.

didn't he burn books about 'degenerate' sciences like studies on homosexuality and transgenderism, I bet if you gave right-wingers a list of titles without telling them who was doing the burning they'd approve of >90% of it and who is that a picture of because it aint Adolf Hitler e: lol it's a picture of former Conservative PM David Cameron, with a hitler mustache photoshopped on https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/sep/14/attlee-descendant-suspended-from-labour-over-cameron-hitler-image VitalSigns fucked around with this message at 04:15 on Jun 25, 2020 |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_book_burningsquote:All of the following types of literature, as described by the Nazis, were to be banned: what the gently caress did they have against Felix Mendelssohn but yeah most of that is stuff that would make right-wingers here ecstatic if they heard of it being burned, almost all if you replace the German purity stuff with "Real American"
