Unpatriotic Dems In Virginia Erases Confederate Holiday

[Correll]

Has nothing to do with the topic of this thread

The topic is that Virginia wants to end a holiday honoring men who led Armies to ensure the continuation of slavery

EXACTLY.

Who in their right minds would want a holiday commemorating men who attacked the union, fought for the right own humans, and then lost the war. You don't commemorate losers. You don't commemorate traitors. And you don't commemorate slavers.

Just America, for the last 5 generations.


Obama sent a wreath to the Confederate Memorial at Arlington. He was right to do so.



Your confusion about why, is something wrong with you, not US.

No. It isn't me.

Here is a question: why did so many of these confederate monuments spring up during times of increased racial tensions like the 50's and 60's??

Confederate Statues Were Built To Further A 'White Supremacist Future'

From your link.

So, the vast majority of them, were put up, around 1900, at a time when the children of the Confederate Soldiers would have been moving into leadership positions, with the control and budgets to honor their fathers.



Only a lib would be confused by this.

Only a con would put that sort of spin on it and ignore the juxtaposition of racial events and confederate memorials. Only a con would ignore confederate memorials going up in states that didn't even fight in the war.

They lost the war. Do we have any monuments to the British from the Revolutionary war? If we do it's not many.

Events that happened decades apart, done by completely different people in completely different places,

are not "juxtaposed".


You are inventing connections, to justify your modern day bigotry aimed at Southern Whites.


Every other culture and group is allowed to celebrate their culture and history and heritage, despite any flaws in it, every group except whites, specifically here, southern whites.

1900 marked the resurgence of the second Klan

ANY period in history, and you would find some way of claiming it was "Racist".


JUst like those messages you used to get in your alphabet cereal. You remember. THe ones that told you to hurt people. Before they locked you up and stopped letting you have forks.

Look...you can't just excise race from everything like it isn't a factor.

I'm not.

AMERICA, "excised" race and treason from the Civil War, and in doing so, healed the wounds and reunited the nation.


The memorials about about the soldiers that fought, and their sacrifices. That is the way the South AND AMERICA AS A WHOLE, has been celebrating the Confederacy for 5 generations.

Nazi Germany is not remembered for it's forced labor.


Vastly different situations had vastly different outcomes. No reasonable person is surprised by that.


Superbrother's position is utterly senseless.

Fool do you not realize what was being done to these folks. They were beaten, raped, maimed, castrated, branded, etc., the atrocities that was done to slaves was in alot of ways no different than what was done to Jewish folks in the Holocaust.

Sure, "no different".

That is why the Jewish minority is a vibrant and dynamic part of the German culture, just like Blacks here in America.

There are still Jewish folks in Germany.
....e.

DUde. They were very nearly wiped out. The blacks were not. YOur claiming they are the same, is you being dishonest.


YOur position is absurd. That you are holding to it, is just you demonstrating that you are completely dishonest.

Dude do you realize how many blacks died on the voyage to America, do you realize what was done to them once they were here. Your position is absurd, stop trying to water down what was done and open your fucking eyes.

Yes, I do. And I realize that today the black population in America and the black culture is thriving and dynamic and growing.


YOu are the one arguing that the Jewish population and culture in Germany is "the same", because genocide and slavery are "the same".



You have talked yourself into a corner. That you cannot admit that, is just you showing that you are an insanely partisan and dishonest hack.

You do have a fair point here -- 'treason' is not a good argument against Confederate memorials, since that status was long ago dismissed.

"Historical revisionism" however, still is.

Not a single slave ever came here from Africa on a Confederate ship. It was US ships and European ships who brought slaves here.

Ok. Moron might be applicable but maybe you are just yanking chains.

The mid Atlantic slave trade became illegal in 1808. The Confederacy did not exist then.

It is also entirely irrelevant to the issue of slavery in the Confederacy.

So I think you are just winding us up.

He's desperately hiding behind his own strawman that the whole question is about "Slavery" instead of the Confederacy. While sporting a Confederate Admiral in his avatar.

He's doing that because he doesn't have the cojones, or the intelligence, or both, to debate the Confederacy and the Lost Cause, so he's gonna go "LA LA LA" and pretend it was never there, and this entire thread isn't about a Confederate holiday. So he brings up slaver ships, and George Washington, and no doubt the friggin' Magna Carta is on the back burner, all stuff that has zero to do with the Confederacy, and any time you challenge him on what the relevance is he runs away.

What a fraud.

It is unlikely that anyone is afraid to debate any issue with you folks.

A week later and its only conservatives I see still twisting themselves into pretzels to rationalize worship of the Confederacy.....the same conservatives who if were in Germany, would be trying to rationalize the worship of the 3rd Reich -- but of course since Germany did a better job of doing away with such worship of evil -- these conservatives would be much too cowardly to spew their bullshit there...

The only reason they so proudly do it here is because they are more embolden to.....and I will continue to slap the shit out of them with facts every time

1. You claim you will slap us with facts. Yet there are no facts in your post. You are full of shit.

2. America as a whole, has been fine with these memorials and holidays for 5 generations. You are just trying to reopen old wounds out of your racism.

There you go with "has been fine with" in blind ignorance of what this greater thrust has wrought --- segregation, race riots, extreme prejudice, lynchings, Jim Crow, the Klan, the White League...

​

The irony here --- one of them --- is that taking Robert E. Lee down from his perch was actually honoring his wishes after decades of that wish being perverted by self-serving revisionists. Lee never wanted this shit going on, and finally he's getting his wish.

Got a problem with that?

America has been fine with it. I grew up as a child in the 70s, and learned about the way the South celebrates it's history, and was taught it was harmless regional pride.


When the DUkes of Hazzard hit the airwaves, the nation as a whole had no problem with a hit show portraying a couple of "good ole boys" driving around in the Gen Lee.


It only became a pretend issue, recently, as you libs grew more and more angry that you were not always getting your way.

If you want to celebrate a heritage of slave owning, of starting and losing a war over the perceived right to own human beings, a war that ended a century and a half ago...that is your choice. But dont be surprised when there is push back, particularly from those who's ancestors were bought, sold, and brutalized by the ancestors of those commemorating this.

IMO there are better cultural things the South can honor.

1. Your spin on how other people celebrate their heritage is irrelevant. Every other culture and group is told the celebrate their culture and heritage and we almost universally, are instructed to respect that.

2. THe premise of Multiculturalism is that multiple cultures can live in peace and harmony, if we all tolerate each other and respect our cultural differences. There is no place in that for "push back" based on past wrongs.
