a point people seem to be missing:
I never said the south or the confederacy wasn't racist. Ever. I only pointed out that we are hating a dead idea of govt (the confederacy) instead of the current power structure (the federal US govt) that has kept the BS alive and well far longer that the brief history of the confederacy could have in its 5 yrs without any real power. You can h8 the confederacy all you want, but its seems terribly misguided since for one, the confederacy isn't in existence, and two, the govt that created all the problems in the first place is still running things.

Thanks for reading. I love you.
