Sherrrrman grab the torch
Setting aside the massive amount of racism of the Confedercy, why are southerens so focused on the treasonous side of a civil war?
It’s the racism isn’t it.
Always has been. The flag they fly wasn’t even the Confederate States flag, but a made up amalgamation resurrected in 1948 by the Dixiecrats to opposed Civil Rights. All modern bullshit about the Confederacy is rooted in some post reconstruction era racist asshole trying to bring back the Confederacy for some other racist ass motivations.
Never trust any racist ass inbred fuckwit when they say, “Heritage not hate” because that flag is solely based on hate. So was the confederacy for that matter. Now excuse me while I got back to writing petitions to get Confederate statues replaced with statues of John Brown.
Even the idea that it’s your heritage… I’m sorry, I thought your heritage was being an American. It’s been nearly 250 years since the country was formed, including many of the states of the confederacy. Even the youngest state that seceded, Texas, has been in the union for 180 years. It was a part of the union for over 15 years before seceding for 4, too, almost 4 times as long. But no? It’s the 4 years that matter most? The 4 year period where the racist slavers seceded because they wanted to make sure they could continue to own humans as livestock and deny rights, freedoms and even basic human decency to people for the color of their skin or their genetic ancestry? Where they fought and died to protect THAT institution and way of life? That’s your heritage? … well, ok, then. But that sounds pretty fucking racist, doesn’t it?
These hicks have contributed, influenced or affected so little of benefit, they need to give themselves medals when they came second on a two players race to feel they somehow matter.
It’s so sad if it wasn’t for the fact the whole “heritage” is defending the right to own and abuse people.
It was four fucking years and most of that was a war that left your major cities in flames. It’s crazy that I don’t consider high school my heritage but these fuckin nitwits can’t let go of 4 years like a 150 years ago.
Cool, Germany then should get a Wehrmacht “heritage” month as well. Ridiculous
It’s a myth that more Americans died in the Civil War than any other conflict. They inflate the numbers by counting slavers as Americans. I mean we didn’t put the names of the Vietnamese on that wall did we? (fucking thing would stretch to Richmond if we did)
How many people who actually fought were slave owners?
Doesn’t matter. If your constitution literally states your government belief is that one race has the right to own another and you willing fight for that, then you’re liable because you’re working to uphold that belief.
A shithole state so bad, it’s worse than Alabama.
Alabama’s gotten me so upset
Tennessee made me lose my rest
And everybody knows about Mississippi, goddamn
Bruh simpsons lasted longer than confederacy. There is mo heritage there.
I have spinach in my freezer that lasted longer than the Confederacy.
Yeah. Not just longer. But waaaaay longer. Like, over +30 years longer.
Imagine celebrating something 150+ years later that lasted ~4 years, was a total failure and, at least as of right now, the biggest blemish on American History.
Still competing with Florida and Arkansas and Louisiana for shittiest state. Winning.
I recommend yellow paint be applied to all loser flags.
Just a reminder that Mississippi did not ratify the thirteenth amendment until 2013.
I mean, if they want a month long reminder that they’re a bunch of losers, I guess I’m ok with that.
The confederacy are the most widely celebrated giant losers of all time, and it isn’t even close.
There are more monuments commemorating their failure than there are commemorating most successes
You can thank Wilson for most of those. He also used the presidency to re-found the KKK. He also was one of the authors of the Lost Cause Southern Revisionist BS.
Such as, famously, the Statue of Liberty. But that’s never taught in schools, of course
Heritage of taking a fat fuckin L
Are they going to have a “Slavery and Treason Parade”?
What a shithole state
Can confirm, unfortunately I grew up and live here.
Live in nearby Memphis. Biggest cesspool on planet Earth
