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.
There are plenty of rebel flags whose literal stated purpose is not slavery. The red and black anarchy flag comes to mind. If anarchy is what they want to symbolize, why not fly one of those?
More to the point, we started this conversation because you said that repenting rather than digging his heels in was why the racer in the original post got canned. Do you think he was right to be canned? If so, are you saying that repenting is a bad thing?
