Not really the point here. Also a lot of these people flying the flag is not racist to them. They don’t fly it because most I’ve met don’t associate it with that racism part even though they should. To them it’s their version of an anarchy flag. They fly it to say they’re rebels. People against the government. They pick and choose what it stands for but if the intention isn’t to be racist, I don’t see how it is.
I don’t track it enough and don’t care. Clearly a large about slavery. That doesn’t change anything I said though. Many people don’t know jack shit about fuck all.
But I do know people who flew the flag. Two are even embarrassed today about it but they’re younger and i know most dig in when told they’re wrong or that they’re something they are not. Sunk costs right.
Now knowing that people dig in rather than repent. Why do you not know its flown as a rebel flag and insist on trying to educate people on the akshual meaning.
Humans are not robots so what is your intention by arguing its historical impact as if that changes that many non racist people saw it as a rebel flag.
Status quo.
Status quo with regards to what?
Culture. Status quo, the pop culture and all the sub cultures must be maintained. No mavericks. Mavericks get removed fast.
Does failing to be racist constitute being a maverick?
Is calling things racist a culturally learned behavior
Are you seriously suggesting that putting a confederate sticker on your racecar is not racist?

What, to you, and to these people who fly it as an anarchy flag, was the civil war about?
