This is factually incorrect, and if you expect anyone to respect it, you are literally unamerican.

To each there own , But When I look at it , I see a differint varient of the Betsy Ross , the Bonnie Blue , and the normal American Flag. If you say you love the American Flag , and then say you hate the Confederate flag , then that is an oxie moron.

I'm not going to debate with someone incapable of correct spelling, proper punctuation, and decent grammar; so this goes out to anyone who would read your absurd comment:

"To each their* own" (fixed it for you): NO. It's not. The Confederates ceded from the Union of American States (colloquially known as these United States of America), they no longer wanted to be part of the USA. That alone makes them *unAmerican* by definition.

"... when I look at it, I see a variant of...": You must be clinically delusional then, because the man who designed the Confederate Battle Flag, William Porcher Miles, had the subjugation/enslavement of Blacks in mind.
In fact, if you're looking for 'variation' of the American flag, you've got the entirely wrong flag.
The "stars and bars" was the offical flag of the CSA, not this "Dixie flag" that is a variation of the actual Confederate Battle flag--which is a smaller version of this image on a field of white material.
The image you posted is actually an inaccurate 1920s reproduction, and was adopted by white supremacists in an effort to intimidate Black citizens during the Jim Crow era. Same with all the Confederate statues.

Lastly, I don't hate the Confederate Dixie flag. Hate is a very broad term.
I have a very specific, deep disdain for it.
And is not "an oxymoron*" (I fixed that for you too). It's an understanding of historical facts that you simply do not have.

If you're going to romanticize a racist lost cause, at least bear the decency of being factual.

I'm not gonna debate with a Brain washed Sheep who's belived everything the Text books and media tells them , Your not changing my mind. The Confeds broke no laws , in fact Lincoln
(the president) was the real guilty party , the Constitution says something about a nation breaking away being legal and totally fine , Lincoln didn't want to let the South go , cause they had very usefel and valueable resources including crops and cattle. So He denied them there right to break away and become an independent nation of there own , He also said , "If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that." So he was no innocent either , There were shit bags in the north and in the south , but still The Confederate flag is not racist , in fact it's about as racist as the main US flag. So have your blind opinion , be my guest , and I'll have my labeled rouge opinion , after all it's a free country still.

What is with you people today?! Is there something in your water source?!? Your argument is entirely unhinged and **factually incorrect**.

Like, do you understand what you're saying??
You are accusing **history books**--the things that go under intense scrutiny before they even hit the publication presses--are "wrong"?!?

What world do you live in?! Because it's not reality.

This is my closing comment , after this me & you should go our seperate ways. As I stated , I don't think the way the establishment does , My opinion is labeled rouge , I go against what were told to believe , I keep an open mind , and think outside the box , if I were crucial to the est. and had this mindset , they'd do away with me in no time. But that's just me , And I'm entitled to have my own opinion , as are you. I can't change your mind , and you can't change mine , so lets just put our differinces aside and call this conversation good.
