I see Confederate battle flags with some regularity driving around the countryside, and especially when I drive south.

Plenty of Americans in the year 2020 still cling to Confederate symbolism, for their own misguided reasons whatever they are

Uh-huh. About that "freedom": Blacks had to labor under Jim Crow for an entire century after the Civil War. Reconstruction and the end of it was an improvement from literal slavery but not all magic and rainbows for blacks.

Yeah, there are different reasons for flying the Confederate flag, and they're all misguided -- because it's a symbol of treason, slavery, and racism.

I'm from the South and I have an ancestor buried in a Confederate cemetery. Doesn't mean I feel any emotional connection to the Confederate Battle Flag whatsoever.

I like this one better.

Lol. Seems the emotional attachment to the Confederate battle flag among many Americans is still real and potent even in the year 2020. I have a slightly different view though.



Hope this helps.

Lol. Seems the only thing you like to do is poke people and sit back and wait for a response. You are what people used to call a muckraker.
The only people who have an emotional attachement to the Confederate battle flag are those who want to use it a wedge issue or those who like to use it in a meme in order to rake muck.
Go muck yourself.

If I didn't see it out there in the real world, then I wouldn't meme about it. Simple

We can't know what's going on in these folks' heads, but it's fair to say that they're fired up about something.

Lol, the above photo couldn't have been from that long ago.

And this was from last year... Don't you remember all the Confederate statue removal controversies in cities around the country?

Don't worry, I won't hurt your Confederate sympathizer feelings anymore. Or maybe I will, who knows

It just happens to be the topic of the day today

Not a sympathizer.
Not a fan of your constant bullshit, that's all.

If all you're interested in doing is whining at me, an anonymous memer, for pointing out this stuff rather than at the sorts of folks who actually hold these retrograde and revisionist attitudes, then you're maybe more of a sympathizer than you think
1 up, 5y
oh, please...spare me the bullshit. It never ends with you...
Go ahead and tilt at windmills and old dead confederates.

rarely have I seen (on imgflip) conservatives defending democrats, but here the conservatives are defending the democrats(according to them) who wave the confederate flag.
