dwazouMississippi Governor Declares April 2025 as Confederate Heritage Month
ShaggySnacksSetting 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, had 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 racists 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?
