There's an even easier way to tell it was fake: they didn't try to find out who it was and ruin his life the way they do for everyone else they see who wears or waves that flag.

Who cares if it's fake? That's the kind of dumbass lazy sentiment that gets you fucked by every con man and grifter who comes along and eventually lynched for a crime you didn't commit.

It's the flag of a would-be nation state run by bunch of slavers. The only great thing about it is the bravery of the men who fought for it.

That isn't what it has symbolized to the average American for at least 40 years - to whom it is little more than a symbol of rebellion.

But it is what it actually, historically is.

Tell me again how one group of people invaded the territory of another group of people, killed millions of men, raped their women, burned cities to the ground, and then after this devastation imposed rule at gunpoint by foreign elites -- And you think the invaders are the good guys?

Tell me again how slavery is your sovereign right in the face of superior firepower.

Spoiler: There are no rights in the face of superior firepower, because the creator of this game was absolutely based and redpilled.

If it was about slavery, no one in the south would have fought. They didn't own slaves.

The North wouldnt have fought to free slaves either.

Slavery was abolished to economically punish the defeated south.

It wasn't about slavery for the common people, no, of course not. That's part of the reason the flag wasn't seen that way by the layman.

It was absolutely about slavery for their ruling elite, though. The people almost never fight for the same reason their leaders initiate the war.

killed millions of men

Not even 1 million people men (and women) died in the entire war.

I don't give a fuck if people wanna wear that flag with pride but that is the flag of the losers. It's not a great flag. It's the loser flag.

Nobody won in the civil war. The states lost their sovereignty and the union lost its soul.

Have you started sucking dick to join the winning side yet? Surely you're not still hanging out with the losers?

The downvotes are from people who have given up. That flag stands for freedom.
