whats wrong with it? isnt it same as rising sun flag on japan tuner cars?
It was literally a different time.
Folks used to say that the civil war was about "state's rights" and not about slavery when it very obviously was over slavery. Now we're tearing down their monuments and they're crying about "muh heritage".
Slavery was a tertiary issue and it was not about that at all, you fucking uneducated brainlet.

People weren’t that sensitive back then. Or if they were people didn’t give a shit and just carried on with life. Also the ability to fuck/bitch to advertisers has made everyone scared.
the demonization and memory-holing of the confederacy is a ploy to make sure that no uppity states that wonder why we really need a centralized and monolithic federal government over a third of a billion people start getting any funny ideas
Brainlet. If the war was about ending slavery then why did Lincoln offer any state that left the confederacy to rejoin the union to keep their slaves? It was never about freeing slaves or ending slavery, it was about power and money. The idea of using abolition as a propaganda tool against the south he same as giving a shit about black people.
Niggers barely got any rights in most of the south until the fucking 60s. Get over yourself and your child mentality of history you fucking shitass, just because you lack the basic capacity for logic and can only parrot what you've heard doesnt make you special, it makes you a normie.
it was a simpler time
Their monuments? No son, their monuments stand proud above us all. Most slaveowners and all slave traders were jews.

Could some burger tell me what is wrong with General Lee now? I tried to order another model and they have covered flag now.
paint drinking NPCs hadn't gained the traction they have now
Most people used to understand Southern pride was (almost always) about a nebulous notion of rebellion against authority as symbolized by the Civil War. It's the same notion as America vs Britain but more regional.
The flag is a symbol of oppression over people of color.
>we're tearing down
Oh, we have chapo tranny here. Don't worry user, only couple more thousand bucks on Patreon and the revolution will start, especially now that the uncle George poured 250 000 000 dollars into the comrades at Vice.
the basic design has meant that long before the confederacy too
I just love this revisionist shit. Slave ownership was not a Jew thing; it was a rich thing. And when people quote that percentage, that is largely congruent with the percentage of the population that could afford to own slaves.
It was absolutely a representation of the South's desire to keep slaves. Most southern rednecks today are too stupid to understand that, so plausible deniability is granted to some, others down here in South Carolina will straight up tell you the South should have seceded in order to keep slaves if you get them in a white enough room.
They still do, but they are tired of southern people and want to own them intellectually like a sketch from the daily show until they convince like minded people to ban anything related to it.
They want rebellion to be like from star wars. See a fair amount of those stickers on cars too.
isn't american flag a symbol of oppression for native americans then?
this will be the flag of our ethnostate
It is now, it wasn't then, it was no more racist that the stars and stripes. Just something to unify under.
Yeah, your boy Marx says otherwise:
marxists.org
Yet black rebellion against white authority was dealt with swiftly and severely, even long after slavery was over.
>could afford
Literally every single American has owned People of Color™ slave. Educate yourself.
Nobody cares about you
In the past 10 years or so they've demonized it as a "hate symbol" and banned it. We have some seriously messed up cultural turmoil going on over here lately.

Most people understand that this flag was merely a representation of Germany's rebellion against authority.
Same thing with the stars and stripes you faggot retard, the people who penned the declaration owned slaves lmfao. To claim the Confederate flag is somehow worse is pure Yankee bullshit. Might as well ban the USA flag itself you dumb cocksucker.
The thing about modern liberalism is that we don't have deities like the right-wingers do. Most socialist scholars are critical of a lot of Marx's work and we don't prop him up like you do with your "george washingtons" or "donald trumps" to be some kind of infallible golden god. We take ideas that have evidence and reasoning behind them; that's it.
>tfw the Star and Bars was the Confederste flag and the battle flag and naval jack were never called the Stars and Bars
Those damn duke boys are doggin us again.
What a faggot you are. It was all about states' rights
>demonized
So I guess it's just a random thing that popularity of flying the battle flag coincides with the rise of the KKK in the 1920s...
Stop pretending that the battle flag is "muh heritage". Fly the CSA flag and nobody will have a problem with it.
>hasn’t read the declarations of secession
Maybe you’ll learn it in 10th grade history next year.
This, from the blackanon
Don't know man, regardless of his intellectual status amongst modern socialist scholars (in your mind) Marx's argument is still pretty solid. And if you look at banks and megacorporations today, including their propaganda wings (aka media & advertising), his thesis checks out.
It is fiction dude like turn off your brain
that was a political party flag
back in those days it was a rebel symbol
sticking it to do the man etc
the bad guys on the show were literally the cops
People who know nothing about the Civil War think it was about slavery.
People who know a little about the Civil War think it was about states' rights.
People who know enough about the Civil War know it was about slavery.
>characters are rednecks

Yet no one cared in the 20s, or 30s, or 40s, or 50s, or 60s, or 70s, or 80s, or 90s, or 00s? Only in the 2010s did it become a "hate symbol" and need to be banned, when twitter culture became mainstream? You got caught up in the manufactured media hype because you're a dumb Yankee brainwashed retard.
The complete retards that want to worship it didn't "care" during those decades either.
Exactly. Growing up in the south I'd see even black people flying the rebel flag. Because it's a symbol of free spiritedness.
>mfw people complain about that girls are so "scantily clad" these days.
>mfw they've been like this for the past 40 years now.
good guys lost
Stop being anti white
What's that supposed to mean, dumb Yankee? Stop deflecting. You are a moron who got caught up with the twitter outrage crowd over nonsense. I had a black neighbor in the 90s who flew the confederate flag lmfao you're such bullshitters, you don't know what goes on down here you just want to culturally bully us like you always have. Get fucked moron.
>you just want to culturally bully us like you always have.
Take your emotion out of it. Your ficticiously anecdotal black neighbor was a fucking moron, just like Kanye. Just flying a flag you have no actual understanding of? And you're calling someone else retarded?
Daily reminder that the south was fully in their right to leave the union as per law set by the constitution. Lincoln's war of aggression was illegal and anti American to it's very core.
Itd be the equivalent of your neighbor killing you and raping your wife because you want to put up a privacy fence on your property.
The civil war is a misnomer.
The goal of a civil war is to overthrow government. The South had no intention of taking Washington, all their plans and letters actually reveal this.
The war is more accurately called a war over southern independence

Fuck off. you are literally stuck in the end of 19th century, that is why you can't shut the fuck up about trains or automatization.
Stay mad rebel trash, the only thing wrong about the war was that we didn’t go far enough. We should have hanged every Confederate officer above the rank of colonel.
>The "War of Slavers wanting the independence to keep humans as livestock".
DO IT AGAIN, UNCLE BILLY!
the american flag is connected to more death, slavery and murder than the confederate flag, but you don't want to ban that one right?
there is a vietnam wall where white americans went into a brown communist country and carried out ethnic cleansing, yet you're not protesting that are you?
hmm it's almost as if you're being manipulated and you're too low IQ to even realize it
Your history has been rewritten, your culture is being extinguished, and most of you will never look up sources older than yourself for more accurate accounting of things which actually happened. Even worse if you did most of you would not be able to understand context or the nuances of a different period in time.
Even condemning slavery itself as an awful thing is a product of an extremely lush, carefree life, utterly unappreciative of sacrifice.
Because they weren’t snowflake male vaginas
Hard to tie a noose with black cock rammed down your throat and black pubes blocking your view.
It was a war of independence. Not a civil war.
It was the second American Revolution and failed, because the south didn't have the mandate of heaven.

Holy shit!

Are you fucking stupid? Your only exposure to it is in Birth of a Nation and I am the one with no understanding? Having grown up with people all around me flying it and no one getting upset? Including blacks? Fuck yourself Yankee piece of shit, I hate you smug self-righteous purple haired retards so much it's unreal.
the south shall rise again in the form of the white ethnostate
>carried out ethnic cleansing
Remind me commie what happened in the Vietnam after Americans pulled out. Some kind of usual leftist shenanigans, but it keeps slipping my mind, wonder what that was, hmmmm?
>It was a war of independence. Not a civil war.
This is an odd parsing of words. Yes, the South wanted independence from the established Union of States.
You should really slow down with your asinine assumptions and implications. North Carolinian here. Never seen a black fly a confederate flag here.
The south should have shipped all the blacks north.
I used to see some guy I called "Confederate Negro". He used to walk around with a rebel battle flag cap every day. I saw him walk up to some Aryan Nations nigga and compliment him on his swastika and 1488 tattoos.

Yankees never change.
Why would they have shipped their most valuable farm equipment, and the basis of their entire economic system north?
Could have been avoided if we had just left them in Africa in the first place, no?
As with any fag of a long running nation, the U.S flag has borne witness to both good and ill, but represents a nationality more than any political belief. The confederate flag on the other hand only ever represented the idealogy of a select group of American nationals who wanted to enshrine slavery as the founding principal of their society. The Traitors Flag has never meant anything other than support for slavery.

If the plebs are protesting completely meaningless things that we've told them are "hate symbols" they won't have the time to protest any actual injustices.
If you honestly believe that the Klan or the confederate flag are a "threat" you're easily manipulated and are too stupid to even grasp the concept that you could be manipulated.
Slavery was so intertwined with all the socioeconomic issues that led to the war that was at once all about slavery and also not at all about slavery if that makes sense. When we began the war it was presented purely as a war preserve the Union. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation and changed it into a war over slavery primarily as a means to keep England and France from intervening. Those two countries seemed to be leaning towards that but Lincoln knew they had strong anti-slavery sentiments and that they wouldn't side with a pro-slavery country in war over slavery.
Slavery in the "good" northern states wasn't outlawed until AFTER the civil war was underway
He sounds based as fuck.
>The one and only reason is that you militarily defeated us.
user, you are an American, not a Confederate soldier. Rednecks putting region before country have no place in this country.
I see several black dudes over on the rebs' side when I reenact at Gettysburg every year. It's weird, it seems like they're actually more common there than on the Union side.
Probably because southerners treated blacks nicer than northerners.
>when I reenact at Gettysburg every year.
Hopefully we can eradicate these barbaric events next.

Northerners treat us like shit, vehemently insult us constantly with the most disgusting lies and portrayals (redneck stereotyping is the only acceptable stereotyping now), and try to culturally subjugate us. Just hearing a southern accent is enough for a Yankee to come up with some weird sick fantasy about you "fucking your cousin" and mock you, even if you're perfectly polite to them. You feel like a brother to people who view you and treat you this way? Nah.
Please have sex.
Nothing wrong with it then and nothing wrong with it now, but at this time the globalist cultural Marxists have gained enough traction that they can attack whites more openly. They are full of shit when they say they are going after the CSA or General Lee or whatever else because of "racism". They want a Marxist revolution and know that the best way to cause a revolution is to first rile people up and sow division and hatred.
That's some personal shit you need to work on yourself instead of trying to drag the rest of the country down your rabbit hole. Although I sense you're just larping at this point. Probably typing all these nonsense from a cozy little cottage in Connecticut, drinking a onions latte and smirking.
The south will get overrun with blacks and hispanics long before that ever happens
Considering the amount of blacks who have European ancestry, I think it’s safe to say you were the ones sucking nigger dick Cletus
>the best way to cause a revolution is to first rile people up and sow division and hatred.
I guess the Confederacy gave you lot some good practice on this. Seems unfair for modern Southerners to have such an advantage.
>Northerners treat us like shit,
Nah, you guys just don't understand Yankee bantz. While people from up north see a lot of the obsequious formality of manners and the laid back pace to be the kind of time wasting horse shit that's more insulting to a yankee than just spitting in their face.
Once you figure that you it's a lot easier to cross that cultural barrier.
Blame it on the weather. Up north its cold and miserable most of the year, and everyone is just in a hurry to get someplace warm, so no time for horse shit.
In the miserable hot humid ass south, you're not in a hurry to do a god damned thing because even sitting completely still is making you sweat gallons because you chose to live in the devil's armpit.

It's also anti-Lee/Confederacy people who are the most hateful and confrontational. Online or in person they just unload vitriol shitting all over anyone who isn't in lockstep with them. Naming all the Confederates and by proxy their descendants or anyone else who might be sympathetic, a "filthy traitor" who should be hung. It's a very weird and concerning mindset that is also self-contradictory. How can you hate the Confederates so much and want them dead but at the same time support a war to keep them in the Union? Grant and others (including Lincoln) had it right; if you wanted and wish to preserve the Union then it is necessary and ideologically and morally consistent to offer more generous terms to welcome the rebels back into the Union and into your arms as fellow citizens. Otherwise, why were you fighting them?
If Davis, Lee, and others had been tried for treason and executed after the war the conflict never would have ended. The division would have never healed. Grant, Lincoln, Lee, Johnston, and Sherman, and others, all understood this. These were men who had fought a bloody and destructive war for four years, losing friends and suffering wounds, but they still managed to bury the hatchet and move on in a constructive way.
That's a far cry from these hateful shitheads you'll meet today who want to drag Lee through the mud and knock over statues. All in the name of "inclusivity". They're full of shit.
It's just zoomers. The 2010s are pretty tame and prudish in comparison to the past.
Source: I'm old
Desperately need a source on this I want to believe
Open any history book. Lincoln said leading up to the war that he had no intention of ending slavery where is already existed. The big point of contention over slavery wasn't over ending it in the south, it was keeping it from spreading to the new states in the west like Kansas and Missouri. In fact, there was an unofficial civil war going on in those states for the entire decade leading up to the war with northerners and southerners committing vicious terrorist acts against one another.
Read a history book. Union was comprised of a few slave states in the Civil War. Ultimately, Lincoln decided to free slaves IN THE SOUTH with his emancipation proclamation as a strategic move to guarantee the Confederacy could not get any foreign support (nobody wanted to support a slave-owning government). The emancipation proclamation did NOT free slaves in the North. Again, there were some slave states and slave owners in the Union. Not until the actual amendment was passed ending slavery in United States did it end in the Union.
Now I think it is dishonest to say that the war was not about slavery, but saying it was ONLY about slavery is also misleading and inaccurate. Slavery was a QUESTION of federal vs state power regarding property and citizenship. Many of the more prominent Confederate leaders were against Slavery and Secession both, but at this time many people in the United States considered themselves chiefly citizens of their state first and the Union second, so when their state voted to secede they complied with that. As well, many did not think the Constitution granted the Federal government the right to end slavery in total.
DO IT AGAIN UNCLE BILLY
If you guys have a primary source or link to this deal he wanted to make please share it. I dont have time to learn about the entire civil war I gotta study for biochemistry
>Naming all the Confederates and by proxy their descendants or anyone else who might be sympathetic, a "filthy traitor" who should be hung.
Where’s the lie?
It symbolizes rebellion, not slavery dumb fucks
It was a different time
Better get rid of all those silly Indian names and monuments then
Not them, but you're welcome to read the most primary of primary sources - the Emancipation Proclamation. It's been many, many years since I read it, so I'm not going to mislead you by trying to remember details, but it is pretty clear about only banning slavery in states that rebelled. This is testing my memory, but I think it even specifically allows slavery in a part of Louisiana that was Confederate but occupied by the Union at the time the document was written.
its ironic that the south and indeed the whole western hemisphere would have been so much better off without any imported Africans.

>The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free."
>Despite this expansive wording, the Emancipation Proclamation was limited in many ways. It applied only to states that had seceded from the United States, leaving slavery untouched in the loyal border states. It also expressly exempted parts of the Confederacy (the Southern secessionist states) that had already come under Northern control. Most important, the freedom it promised depended upon Union (United States) military victory.

He'd abhor you.
I once met a qt on omegle back in 2011 who had a HUGE Confederate battle flag on her wall behind her in her room.
I remember being absolutely shocked because she was so sweet and nice to me.
My whole young life I was raised to believe that anyone who supported the Confederacy in modern times was a neo nazi skinhead-esque racist who hate colored people and are just pure evil.
She was from Alabama, added me on Skype, and we kept up a video correspondence for quite a long time.
Met her family through Skype and a few of her friends, all people who loved that flag and were nothing but kind to me.
Really changed my perspective on the whole thing.
Sherman didnt like waging war, and he liked the southern culture quite a bit. The reason he waged war in the way he did was because that's how it needed to be done rather than the pussy footing dance McClellan and Johnston did in the Eastern theater for 2 years.
Sherman did a wicked thing for a good reason, you might say. He had predicted at the outset that a war between the states would be long, bloody, and destructive. He was against it. He also, I think rightly, understood that to ensure a lasting peace and that no second rebellion would erupt, that he had to delivery a heavy material cost to the South. It was a very ruthless strategy and it IS an example of federal tyranny, but it also worked. I also think it is clear from his preserved writings, that I've seen anyway, that he was a moral man making a very cynical but justified calculation and seeing it through no matter how ugly it might be. I think Southerners have every right and reason to hate him, but it's dishonest and inaccurate to just call him an invader and a terrorist. His March to the Sea had a specific purpose in mind whose goal was lasting peace between the states and a swifter end to the war, the aim being to avoid even more bloodshed. When he went up against Johnston he recognized that Johnston could not win and that the federals could gradually overcome and destroy his army; but he went around him instead because he knew he could end the war without having to inflict even more causalities.
Are you a nigger?
Also, Alabama is one of the blackest states. If confederate flag flyers were crazy racists like the media portrays them, it would be in a constant state of violence. But instead it's social cohesion and politeness.
Confederate monuments were part of an agreement that the South wouldn't rebel again so long as the North acknowledged they fought valiantly and had legitimate greivance. If that agreement no longer stands, we'll most likely see another move for secession within the next 50 years, and with the current and degrading state of the US government, there won't be as much of an issue leaving a second time.
>My whole young life I was raised to believe that anyone who supported the Confederacy in modern times was a neo nazi skinhead-esque racist who hate colored people and are just pure evil.
When one takes a step back and thinks critically for a moment it should be clear that if Southerners flew the Confederate battle flag out of support of slavery, that they wouldn't need to be bashful about. If they supported slavery then they'd say so. I think 99% of Southerners will try to write out the Confederacy's association with slavery out of shame and guilt and because they DON'T AGREE WITH THAT ASPECT OF IT. Symbols change, and I think an honest person will admit that today virtually no Southerners fly the Confederate flag out of a sense of racism or support of slavery. They do try to white wash things a bit, but that behavior is symptomatic of the fact that they too reject slavery, but wish to preserve the Confederacy's other, more positive, aspects.
Reminder that Sherman was totally cool with the idea of fighting alongside Nathan Bedford Forrest after the war.
Niggers got food and a nice place to sleep in exchange for picking cotton. That's better than life in Africa. Say thank you to your based slaveowner.
they drove really fast. usually did a sweet jump.
Election shilling is really ramping up.
>with the current and degrading state of the US government, there won't be as much of an issue leaving a second time.
The Federal government is even more power hungry now and they have global backers and a global agenda. No way they'll let anyone leave no matter what. More likely they'll just dissolve the whole thing so that EVERYONE becomes subservient to a global super state.
>yeeeeeeee haaaaaww

They didn't "get away" with anything. It was just better times before all the terminally offended whiny cunts had dribbled from the end of their respective cocks.
Blacks straight outta africa are literal monkey tier. Modern blacks should be thanking us for the generations of miscegenation that allows them to hold a pencil for longer than 5 seconds.
Slavery was an entirely perfunctory issue
Ripping down statues and destroying art is literally ISIS tier savagery.

The 30 extra IQ points from the 40% white DNA has just made them miserable and dangerous though. 50 IQ hut dwelling niggers are ultimately happier and 90 IQ isn't worthwhile enough to be useful.
Slavery enabled southern aristocrats to be decadent, fat little piggies who actually did lead an extremely lush, carefree life. One of most critical problem the confederacy ran into is that these spoiled brats were literally too ill disciplined, luxuriant, and used to getting their own way to be made into disciplined soldiers who would do what they're told. It's why you have to hand it to Lee that morality aside he was a really good military leader to have made a single good confederate army out of the absolute dogshit that was his human resources.
That is not a meaningful difference.
America was still fresh out of the Mexican-American War less than 20 years ago where many Confederate officers had served.
>yank
They're called Yankees you larping weirdo.
And stop responding to obvious bait, faggot
This lecture goes into some detail about that
>There’s no meaningful difference between millennia old irreplaceable artifacts and cheap propaganda statues
Keep telling yourself that
Confederate Officers, real ones who had been in the army, were very disciplined and well trained. However the average southerner rallying to join the Confederate army was not well trained and the new class of Confederate Officers, coming from civilian life, were just wealthy land-owners or businessmen who bought their commissions. Neither group was prone to a life of a obedience and and dirty field work, both being necessary for a functioning army.
Turning southern peasants and aristocrats into a disciplined fighting force was no easy task.
the south will rise again
You are so obvious.
wtf that is just an orange car with a 01 on it. The General Lee has a flag on the roof. You are being bamboozled.
It's a confusion of the timeline.
The Civil War emerged out of the major issue of the previous several decades of US History: Slavery.
People get it into their heads that meant that from day 1 of the Civil War and before it the North and Federal government had the explicit goal of total abolition. This is false.
But the North, and the Republican party, were against slavery in a more moderate sense. They didn't want new states/territories to have slavery-the South did. They wanted fugitive slaves that escaped into the North to become free. The South didn't. The South saw itself as a society based on slave labour, the North revered the idea of Free Soil, where free men could forge their destiny without competing with slavery.
So the North wanted to limit slavery, not make it the way of the future, where the South didn't want to live in a country that was increasingly moving away from slavery, scorned them for using it, and over time risked undermining slavery by causing it to suffocate and collapse inwards due to lack of expansion opportunities.
The war started because the Confederates did not want to live in an anti-slavery country, not because the federal government was trying to abolish slavery in the short term. They didn't like what way the wind was blowing. As such, the North's priority was stopping this seperatist rebellion. In other words, at least until the emancipation proclamation, the South had started the war over slavery, making it a war for slavery, but the North was fighting it for the integrity of the union. The North made it their goal to free the slaves after they realised that was the only way to effectively conquer the South.
>over time risked undermining slavery by causing it to suffocate and collapse inwards due to lack of expansion opportunities.
As well many Northern abolitionists were encouraging slaves to revolt in the South. RE: John Brown.
You can also just read this:
>Be southern farmer circa 1860
>Rich slave owners push your half of the country into secession
>Federal government declares war.
>Federal and Confederate government both forcibly conscript the working classes but let the rich buy their way out.
>Federal government burns your farm down and salts the Earth to use famine as a weapon of war.
>Their soldiers rape your wife.
>You get shot by a musket and spend the next few weeks dying of an infection.

There is no past, the party is always right.
Blackpilled af
The south was still right by all standards except the "might makes right" standard
The fact that their constitution codified whites being superior to blacks is reason enough to fight for them. Had they won they might have destroyed the myth of equality and saved us all a huge headache.
>southerners lose their rights to vote or hold office and spend decades languishing in poverty.
Literally every illiterate nigger deserved the right to vote more than every Confederate officer who volunteered to rebel against the Union. Also, most of the monuments that have been torn down were monuments to Confederate generals or monuments that called the war a “nobel cause” rather than a “pointless cause”.
The least you fags could have done was send them back to Africa as Lincoln intended. And now we're all fucked.
I read some article about the restoration of the cylclorama of the battle of atlanta and how as they were restoring it they realized how much had been changed piecemeal over the years to make what was a union victory look like a confederate victory. But it went through how the public perception of the war changed over the years and rise and fall in popularity.
It was pretty interesting.
Uncentralized power is also cool- harder to corrupt. Localized government means solutions that work instead of universal solutions that never do. It would have been the only government of its kind on earth
States rights now, states rights tomorrow, states rights forever!
You are now aware that the CSA constitution did not significantly expand state’s rights, except the right to slavery
>States only gain four minor rights under the Confederate system — the power to enter into treaties with other states to regulate waterways, the power to tax foreign and domestic ships that use their waterways, the power to impeach (some) federally-appointed officials, and the power to distribute "bills of credit."
>The CSA constitution does not modify many of the most controversial (from a states' rights perspective) clauses of the American constitution, including the "Supremacy" clause (Art. VI, Sec. 1[3]), the "Commerce" clause (Art. I, Sec. 8[3]) and the "Necessary and Proper" clause (Art. I, Sec. 8[18]). Nor does the CSA take away the federal government's right to suspend habeus corpus or "suppress insurrections."
>As far as slave-owning rights go, however, the document is much more effective. Four different clauses entrench the legality of slavery in a number of different ways, and together they virtually guarantee that any sort of anti-slave law or policy would be unconstitutional.

Didn't matter if you volunteered or were conscripted. The North took everyone's rights away after they destroyed the economy. Then they took over the local government and stole everything that wasn't nailed down.
But clearly southerners had no justification to try and fight against such a fate. They should have just caved to the Federal Government. Same goes for the Indians ehh boot licker?
DO IT AGAIN, UNCLE BILLY!
Whose fault was it that they got imported in the first place? It was Southerners during the constitutional convention who demanded a ban on the importation of slaves not be enacted until 1808
Because the ZOGnews didn't make a pop culture out of overanalyzing every single detail and judging it on its politically correctness yet.
I know this. They were more like the original federalists following the original US constitution. Had the CSA won, there wouldn't have been a 14th amendment. They didn't have to expand states rights because the 10th amendment was already perfect. It's the north that ignored their own constitution.
Point being, states rights were more respected in the south
>The North took everyone's rights away after they destroyed the economy. Then they took over the local government and stole everything that wasn't nailed down.
Wouldn’t have happened if they haven’t seceded in the first place
BOOM HEADSHOT!
Why do you have a problem with them leaving?
Parents didn't beat their zoomer retard children enough.
As a southerner who wishes the south won, I gotta say JWB really fucked things up for us
But, he had a point- sic semper tyrannis
DO IT AGAIN, UNCLE BILLY!
Filthy traitors deserve the cross
>tfw you lost the war but you still had more kills than the union
>all these assblasted mutts ITT dreaming about dying for some rich assholes right to own slaves and avoid giving you a job
I doubt there has ever been a more cucked people throughout the entirety of history.
>projection
Southern K/D ratio was really impressive especially considering they didn't have shoes half the time, didn't have food, and had shitty guns.
That picture you posted makes a better point for the south.
Outmanned, outgunned, starving, and they still kicked more ass
Based
Thanks for importing blacks into our country you fucking white trash inbreds.
There weren't a lot of white trash slave owners.
How did those anons import blacks when the slave trade has been outlawed for hundreds of years? (Since before the civil war, too, brainlet)
Atone for your familial sins nigger trader.
The brothers were friends with other black characters in the show you uneducated millinial puppet.
>folks
Ask me how I know you're a weak beta male
I made the best posts in this thread but nobody gives me credit
No because only (((certain))) genocides are bad.
Who do you think sold them into slavery? It wasn't white red necks pulling up on the coast of Africa and catching them with butterfly nets you fucking moron.
Isn't that what George the Third said?
Africans caught the slaves, Jewish Europeans imported them, Southern plantation owners then bought them.
good god, imagine actually unironically believing this made up bullshit:
In August 1862, Lincoln stated: "If I could save the union without freeing any slaves 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."
>HURRRR IT WAS ABOUT SLAVERY
That's not how it went down. They just don't want you to know the true story.
In that case, you will burn in the fires for your yankee crimes against God you niggerloving, fagloving tyrant
>that scene where the Duke boys plow the General Lee through a civil rights march
Jesus fucking Christ, how did they get away with this?
Same applies to Americans who partook in their war of independence against Britain. The only difference is that the rebels won that one.
You don’t go to war over niggers. You dumb cunt.
If you love the idea of illiterate niggers comprising the electorate so much you'd move to Detroit or Baltimore. But you're a typical naive and hypocritical shitlib so you'll stay in your homogenous white neighborhood.
yeah, states' rights to own slaves
I preferred the part where they did the powerslide through the pride march.
And the result of the war was a total and eternal annihilation of states rights you faggot bitch. Only low test bitches want big government. Move to China, dicklet.
>>we
Pretty sure the only thing you did was let some niggers bang your wife.
I live in Philadelphia, my neighborhood is anything but white and homogenous dipshit
I don't know, I think the scene where they flew the general Lee off a ramp into a crowd of trannies was more memorable.
>we'll kill you if you try to leave!
Yankees are basically white trash domestic abuser husbands.
FACT: the south were the good guys
FACT: Germany were the good guys
FACT: the good guys don't always win
Only hillbillies actually fuck their own family members, user. Rednecks still have some kind of class.
Obama was your god and don't you dare deny it you pathetic motherfucker.
>we don't have deities like
yeah you do and they are corporations
Had the south won, we'd have declared war on those faggot germans before they even invaded poland
Fuck you, commi
rednecks be mad
You sound very pompous. I'd advise that you go piss up a rope.
Not really. For the most part, you creatures keep yourselves confined to your ghettos. You're mostly a nuisance, well at least until the plague escapes Los Angeles.
>We don't have idols, wo only have FACTS AND LOGIC
>a-also, Zizek totally won that debate!!!111
>gov't decides to take your property without cause
>concerned citizens fight back
>somehow they're the bad guys
Zoomers had nothing to do with it, it was our generation, gen Y that did this and continues to ruin society with this shitty censorship crap. I gen Z is worth a damn they'll get edgier and reverse this shit asap.
Not even cletus lol
You're correct. Localism has always worked and effective. Bureaucracy and Universalism stifles creativity and growth.
I
Yes even, you Starbucks sipper.
who?
People weren’t pussies back then. There’s an old pin of Bill Clinton and Gore with confederate flag on the back because they were good old southern boys. It’s just a flag. Leftists cry about this yet buy soviet flags on amazon
Anyone who uses the term “folks” is a butthurt leftist
>directed by Sam Raimi
Jewish European Portuguese. No one ever shits on the Portuguese for this.’
I have never drinked anything from starbucks. Shit man, you are terrible at this
>in rural michigan on vacation
>trucks have confederate flags
Based retard
Nice bait, here’s a (you)
>Yea Forums defending slavery
Y'all need help.
Do better, be better.
Iwithout reading the thread:
The confederate flag and the south is cool and right, being "racist" is good, same thing with germany in ww2.
If you are white and not racist, what are you even doing?
Hahahahah
>RRREEEEEEEEEE I DON'T WANT TO PICK COTTON
fuck rebel slavers
It's not about racism. It's about how the north were tyrants and tyranny is bad. Just like the germans were bad. Get it right
No one is defending slavery you brainlet. It was a terrible system.
>folks
lol
>let me post my favorite racist-nationalist to own the /pol/tards
leftists were a mistake

>t must be all the slave admixture.
True, there's still too much bong blood in this country. Now go bin your spoon and keep your ugly head down, nigel.
Because people weren’t retards before twitter degraded culture by giving the grievance industry power
>One of most critical problem the confederacy ran into is that these spoiled brats were literally too ill disciplined
The confederacy was superior in soldiers and generals, it was simply outnumbered and outproduced. What you're saying is the literal opposite of the truth
