      Be forced to allow slavery.

      It was illegal in the Confederacy for them to ban it. So much for the right to choose for themselves.

          B fuck this country

          C those fucks who died aren’t my countrymen and anyone who supports them aren’t either, insurrectionists and traitors all of them. If you fly that flag leave my country. My country.

        They literally had official government statements that black people were inferior by divine law. The image from op is one hundred times more respectful of others than the Confederates were.

        If I fought and killed over the right to own and abuse another human being, I would hope people would show up to piss on my grave. This is more respect than they deserve.

        And don’t try to say they were a product of their time, either, because so was Cassius Clay and that man landed on the right side of history after being born to the richest slave owner in America. If he could buck that trend then so could all these other assholes.

        Nope. Pee on Confederate graves… The few that they’ve managed to bury properly. They died doing a shitty thing for a shitty reason, and we’ve had to deal with the aftermath since the election of 1876 was brokered to end Reconstruction.

        They fucked everything up. So, yeah, no respect. Pee on them.

        Respect is earned not given out to people who want a human slave

        There also still Americans, which is what makes civil wars more complicated.

          No, they quite literally left the Union, which makes them not Americans. They viewed black people as property and were willing to go to war to maintain that status quo. Personally, I wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.

            The union said they weren’t allowed to leave and won, so technically they didn’t leave. That’s what makes civil wars difficult, you have to find a way to live with the losing side after.

              The law says you’re not allowed to murder. So if you kill someone and are arrested for murder, did you technically not murder anyone?

                That’s what makes it difficult after murder… Or something

              Wrong. We should have eradicated them when we had the best chance. Imagine a world where we got rid of all those people. 🥰
