if they fly the confederate flag, they deserve what all treason deserves.....

I have a neighbour that's flying the flag, I'm thinking of capturing it

All this pro confederacy bullshit comes from manipulation from groups like the United Daughters of the Confederacy.

The South: screwing over civil rights and defying logic since 1861

Ya, but they got a cool car horn sound.

And just like Trump had to lose the election over and over, so too must they keep losing.

Not caring about politics is a sure sign you're poor.
BigFatBobbie
Absolutely. Is discussing politics a good way to get rich?
AnimusRex
Certainly correlated, I'd imagine. Being aware of how you're being fucked over and where the gaps are would make success more likely.
BigFatBobbie
That is good. I just look at it as I am happy and doing well. I find life throws enough stress at me without seeking out more. Also, in

While you can cheer his hand in the defeat of the Confederacy. Don’t glorify him. He also helped in the genocide of Native Americans.

#1 funny enough, that practically was one of CSA's flags, the "stainless banner" they called it.
fluffyeggs25
The confederate museum in my city flies this flag. I like to think it's their surrender flag.
Dagordae
That's actually why they changed the design. It looked too much like a flag of surrender. The replacement was the same thing, but with a red
Dagordae
bar on the right. So it looked like a flag of surrender dipped in blood. They went through a ton of flag designed, even during the final

days of the war when it was just the North mopping up.

still boggles the mind you can call yourself an American and fly the very flag of the enemies who tried to destroy it.

Grease fire.
ErniesWidow
I was really hoping the flag would catch fire, too.
MasterDark001
I thought the rebel challenge was putting LGBT bumper stickers over confederate ones.

Open flame has its very own unique way of leaning in and asking “You’re not going to do that again, are you?"
juzzfuzz
I like how that guy pours more fire onto his head
Paraphrast
It was water on 'petrol-fuel' fire, and that causes them to spread, and not go out.
juzzfuzz
I know I was just trying to ironically stoke the fire
WhereIsMyAppleQuava
What does setting your head on fire while holding a flag prove?
Legomaniac91
That you're drunk enough to think it's a good idea.
hogeyegrex
That your family tree looks like a flagpole.
ozimondiaz
This is a worse burn than in the video. Nicely done.
Paraphrast
That you're a fool...it goes with the territory.
Lightsmith
It wasn't even states rights. They wanted the Federal gov. To enforce slavery in free states.
Brutsarge
And they did that thru the “Fugitive Slave Act”. Required all states in the union to return escaped slaves. Part of the Compromise act of
Brutsarge
1850.Disgusting politics was as prevalent then as it is now.
Lightsmith
I think the south wanted more tho. Like if slave owners visited a free state they could bring their slaves and they would still be slaves.
Lightsmith
I don't believe the feds did that.
Meltemi
That was the core of the Dred Scott decision: a slave brought to a free state remained a slave, and moreover, could never become a citizen.
Jteg
#3 ironic that southern white republicans are burning down their own state with their new set of voter supression
Brutsarge
But the voter suppression disproportionately impacts lower income black communities.
BosunMark
Not to be that guy..but... Today was Lee's surrender at Appomattox. The Confederacy didn't surrender until May 9.. But yeah, fuck'em!
superseriouscomments
They surrendered on May 9? What a coincidence, that's the same day the Nazis surrendered (to Russia)
HeresSomeMoneyGoSeeAStarWar
I thought Bo and Duke were “just two good ol’ boys. Never meanin’ no harm”
semperknight
Makin' their waaaaaay. The only way they know how!
MoschopsUK
1/ Turns out we were too young to understand that "good ol' boys" is code. Although to be fair the storylines very rarely involved burning
MoschopsUK
2/ crosses on people's lawns.
Brutsarge
Never watched the show. Did it lean toward white supremacy
thatscool22
It didn’t. They were inclusive of all good guys no matter their race. They were proud of general lee because they were Georgians.
Brutsarge
Ok. Well that’s good. I’d really hate to learn the show perpetuated the south’s lean toward white supremacy
HeresSomeMoneyGoSeeAStarWar
Aaaand now it’s stuck in your head.

God I was such a massive Dukes of Hazard (and Knight Rider) fan as a kid. I swear I didn't know I was rooting for a car with a slave flag!
TheMaXX37
I also just realized that shit flag was on top of the car... Damnit!
Aristocrats
If people carrying the confederate flag acted like the Duke boys, it wouldn't have been a problem. But the act like Rosco and Boss Hog.

#7 Nonsense! They were fighting cause they were underepresented in parliament, overtaxed, Lincoln wasn't on the ballot in some states AND...

wanted to own people.

Brutsarge
Exactly. They fought for states rights.....to own slaves.
thespiritofadventure
My highschool teacher taught "it was about states rights". He also was very pro guns. I wonder what he thinks today...
forsteri80
Same, and I was put in the "advanced" history class.
monkofshadow
He’s the problem
afatrollofmyown
He sounds like the type to be in DC on January 6th, and is now having a pleasant convo with the FBI
Brutsarge
Yes..it was about states rights. States rights to own slaves. Your teacher needed to finish the sentence
Coaststuff
I imagine most people who died fighting for the right to own slaves, could never have afforded a slave anyway.
monkofshadow
Like all the Tump supporters who make 27k a year
Brutsarge
Because they wanted to keep the slaves down. It wasn’t about being able to own a slave, it was about keeping them down below them.

They there in the minority even back then. As more states were added to the Union the south knew they’d eventually be outnumbered.
JHawkInc
Obviously (I mean, if you know your history). There are whole laws about getting new states that were mostly about the south trying to 1/?
JHawkInc
keep the number of slave and free states equal. They had to get out in front to cheat because they would lose a fair vote. 2/2
boognish115
Makes the civil war seem like it was inevitable doesn’t it? Especially since Europeans were already banning slavery in the decades prior.
monkofshadow
This sounds familiar...
Rynestrm
A few years of a great grandparents life and people say it’s part of their heritage. Didn’t world war 2 last longer than the confederacy?
gottacoconut
I’ve seen smut fanfictions last longer than the Confederacy did, does that mean Naruto Shadow Clone Bukkake’ing Hinata isa part of heritage?
Toffeeaccident
Jesus fucking christ

Seen that smut fanfic too, and lemme tell ya, confession was *interesting* that week.
VainyBangStick
My fav fact is that the US had a black president for twice as long as the confederacy. It’s a perfect Fuck You to those pricks.
SuperIncoherentRantingMan
It is, it's the whole reason they're acting up so badly now. They're like spoiled children.
mrputter
Duke Nukem Forever was in development for nearly ???? ????? as long as the confederacy. On release, it turned out to be just as big a joke.
ChloeRed
That's a bit unfair.. DNF did at least achieve it's objective of being released ;)
porpoiseoflife
Raid: Shadow Legends is almost older than the Confederacy.
NotEven0nce
I was born in the south so I love it down here, but I don't love all the confederacy bs. Pisses me off that it's associated with my home.
NotEven0nce
Confederacy is like the Thin Blue line, those fuckers aren't real red necks. Real rednecks are 100% fuck the police.

We invented hot rodding just to say fuck the police we're having beer whether you like it or not.
