it was for state’s rights!
It was for state’s rights to:
Be forced to allow slavery.
It was illegal in the Confederacy for them to ban it. So much for the right to choose for themselves.
…literally own people.
I hate this comeback. It's so easily countered.
You ask what, I tell you
Ok. Tell me.
Quite rough. Our civil war losers are treated much better.
...they weren't pro slavery though
I thought this kind of childish nonsense was done mostly by conservatives. So stupid.
edit: for the many of you that didn't understand, this is not a comment defending the confederacy. Jesus Christ. The point is we all thought "let's go Brandon" made the republicans look childish and pathetic. Well congratulations, you managed to match them.
Bro's mad because his grandpappy is buried there 💀
Triggered by the loss of the loser confederates? At least they serve the common good by offering their Graves as public restrooms.
Well, you were wrong LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Should have driven them into the sea
tbf, fuck confederates but....they are still dead people.
treat everyone with the same respect you want to be treated with
Laugh at my grave. See how much I give a shit lololol
No. I have no respect for the traitors who fought for the right to enslave human beings. Fuck all Confederates and fuck anyone demanding we respect the legacy of those fucking slavers and sing Kumbaya with their modern day bigoted counterparts.
They didn't treat black people with respect so
Slavers aren't people.
They literally had official government statements that black people were inferior by divine law. The image from op is one hundred times more respectful of others than the Confederates were.
Why do dead people suddenly command respect upon death? If you‘re a seditious bigot in life, you remain a seditious bigot in death and reap all that you‘ve sown.
If I fought and killed over the right to own and abuse another human being, I would hope people would show up to piss on my grave. This is more respect than they deserve.
And don't try to say they were a product of their time, either, because so was Cassius Clay and that man landed on the right side of history after being born to the richest slave owner in America. If he could buck that trend then so could all these other assholes.
Respect... dead people? They're dead...
I'd want people to hate me if I fought to preserve slavery
When you view your life as inherently more than another, it ironically puts you below the bar a bit.
Got it. Treat Pol Pot with respect. Noted.
Let's get offended by everything
Nope. Pee on Confederate graves... The few that they've managed to bury properly. They died doing a shitty thing for a shitty reason, and we've had to deal with the aftermath since the election of 1876 was brokered to end Reconstruction.
They fucked everything up. So, yeah, no respect. Pee on them.
