My mom once said she’d love to ask these people how a long dead confederate general is holding them back. Also, aren’t these the people who want history to be known? Relevant to the local area. I grew up in Oklahoma and there was a lot of stuff named after Native Americans, so in the south it shouldn’t be surprising to have stuff named for confederate soldiers.
One of the few "concessions" the Yankees gave the South during Reconstruction was to allow statues of their soldiers. To honor their sacrifice and valor, so they haven't died in vain.
Of course, now that everyone from the Civil War is long dead, and their descendants thoroughly propagandized, the Northern aggressors reneged on that deal as well.
Back when I was a kid, we didn't take sides in the Civil War. Those were all Americans. And far enough removed from any of us, except maybe in family stories, that we had a certain distance from the conflict. Some people today act like they're in it.
Yeah, just admitting it out loud with no shame. I thought African American was out of vogue now?
It never should have been renamed. Fucking Yankees should mind their own business.

Yankee faggots like to simultaneously lord over their conquest of the South and bitch about how the South is a drain on the nation.
