      It was the flag of the confederacy that lost the civil war, but today it’s the flag for white supremacist bigots and no more. That is all that it means.

      Read a real book, like BATTLECRY OF FREEDOM, by McPherson.

      Also on that same era the steam engine train, telegraph and germ theory came to be. It was as radicalizing then as the computer is now.

      The south based their economy on aristocracy and hierarchy and added the worst sort of slavery the world had seen (hereditary, based on skin color).

      Fuck them all to hell. Bigot scum.
