Good call

I will say that, as a child of the 1970s, the confederate flag had a, uh, weird cultural footprint in that decade

I’m a direct descendant of a daughter of the confederacy, totally possible to acknowledge that as bad and shameful without feeling bad about myself!

I barely even remeber what the Confederate flag looks like any more. It is not anywhere I go or on social medias or news that I read.

My generation (I’d guess yours too) grew up with one of the most popular weekly shows on prime time tv highlighting the Confederate flag.

The Germans actually enacted really great laws for the Nazi stuff too, so you can also be charged.

To quote Grant: “[T]hat cause was, I believe, one of the worst for which a people ever fought, and one for which there was the least excuse.”

My feeling is that conservatives just still basically believe all that stuff and don't think it was wrong and maaaaaaybe they wouldn't reinstitute literally slavery, if they thought they could, but they don't think everyone should be down on it so hard like it was some horrible thing.
