States’ rights? Heritage? I was wrong: The Confederate flag has always been about race.
I said the flag was about states’ rights. I said it stood for self-determination. I said it honored heritage.
I argued the Confederate flag wasn’t about race. I believed it. Millions of well-meaning Southerners believe it too.
I was wrong. That flag is always about race. Whatever political or historical points the flag’s defenders make, there will never be a time—and never has been a time—in which millions of Americans have looked at that symbol and not seen hatred.

"About" is in the eye of the beholder. Racists see everything in racial terms. "Millions of Americans" yes, non-southern racists. What a maroon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a maroon.
DeleteI've noticed that through the years, you use 'maroon' as your ultimate insult. :)
A maroon to me is one who knows better but still says utterly stupid things. A lot of them in high places anymore.

ReplyDeleteA pathetic shadow of a man.
DeleteHunter said this to protect his boy Rand Paul's campaign; he may be sincere enough in his conversion to the politically correct gospel, but let's call this what it is: falling on his sword so Rand doesn't catch a mega shitstorm for being affiliated with Hunter. They are at this point both laughable public personalities, so frankly, who cares what Hunter or Rand Paul has to say since they both sold their Southern supporters out.
ReplyDeletewho cares what Hunter or Rand Paul has to say since they both sold their Southern supporters out.
DeleteAgreed.
It's the age old story, the victors write the history books. Truth has nothing much to do with it.
