I also like how people do it in Northern states. I live in Indiana and I see the Stars and Bars all the time. Sometimes with the Indiana state flag. The fools don't even know what side we were on.

It's all over in WV. The state that seceded from the Confederacy. And then when confronted they say it's their heritage.

Mother fucker, what heritage?

[-] STUPIDVIPGUY@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Racism. that's it. 'Heritage' is code for racism and 'family values' is code for heterosexism

[-] Saneless@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

They're proud of more things than just racism. Like poverty

It's a good thing they are great at being sneaky, otherwise we wouldn't be able to figure it out almost instantaneously...

Dude, they have people flying them in Canada. I don't think there's much common sense in the folks who publicly display it.

[-] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I once asked a guy why he would fly a Confederate flag in Canada and he said, “If you have to ask you wouldn’t understand.”

I guess he was right. I don’t understand.

It's a rebellious symbol. If talking heads said the flag of Kazakhstan was evil and we should all hate anyone who has one, it would have been that.
