Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer...That's what

That was ridiculous. Seeing a confederate flag shouldn't reduce a normal sane person to needing therapy. If I saw a person with a swastika on his laptop, I'd just consider him a jerk and not think about him anymore.
And while its true that the original Confederates were as bad as they are portrayed, and fully defended as a Biblical truth, that slavery was good, that society would crumble without it, that it was a sin to go against this institution, that God had ordained it and commanded it, that blacks were inherently inferior to whites, etc.... (though similar ideas were also popular in the North) most people who love the Confederate flag associate it with something else other than that history. They have their own historical conception of that flag, correct or not, and at any rate its theirs to be proud of.
I wouldn't assume a person sporting a confederate flag is a racist. I'd just assume they were counter cultural, or anti-PC, or just proud of where they came from whatever its history has been.Last edited by Leonhard; 08-08-2017, 08:50 AM.
