Hegseth defends returning Confederate monument to Arlington National Cemetery

[Delldude]

The inscription on the statute implies that the confederacy had the proper moral cause in the war.

Duh..... that's why they fought.....it was a moral cause in their eyes.

 

[rightwinger]

Where did I say "slavery was OK?"

You are comparing it to planned and executed genocide. Sorry but when you make everything you don't like as evil as the holocaust you insult those who died in it, those who survived it, and those who fought to end it.

All because of your sad pathetic TDS.

His point is Nazis lasted less than 15 years while slavery and segregation lasted 300 years

Neither is something to be celebrated

Fighting for slavery is moral?

Slavery has been part of the human condition for far far longer than it has been seen to be not part of the human condition.

None of the memorials celebrate slavery, they mourn losing the war.

Apparently they thought so at the time.

We should know better

Looks like it was a learning experience.

What a stupid statement

Hardly justifies over 200 years of slavery

Unfortunately a part of our history. Erasing memory of it is just as bad as the history itself..

It happened, there is no reason to justify it, nor is there any reason to ignore that slavery has been part of human civilization since we started it.

Only in the past 100 years has been eliminated as a legal condition, and in places like Africa it still exists as a de facto condition.

I can’t believe your apologies for Confederate states leaving our country so they could assure a slave state

But, but, everyone is doing it

In Central Africa, Pygmy peoples have historically been exploited by dominant Bantu-speaking communities. They are often treated as second-class citizens, denied education, and subjected to slave-like forced labor or servitude.

These conditions are not legally sanctioned, but they persist due to the fact that Pygmy peoples are not Bantu and do not resemble Bantu people physically.

Not apologizing for anything. I'm just not trying to apply modern morals to past events and people.

When the Holocaust happened everyone pretty much knew you shouldn't go out and slaughter people because they are "X"

 

[Correll]

Yes, absolutely.

In fact, they were much worse.

They enslaved human beings for CENTURIES. They were TRAITORS who caused a Civil War. And long after slavery was finally abolished, they continued the same practices under Jim Crow for another 100 years.

The Nazis were a flash in the pan compared to the slave masters.

The same schizos who fly the Confederate flag and defend Confederate monuments are the same idiots who think they are clever when they start timeworn monthly topics to say Confederates were Democrats.

With absolutely no cognitive dissonance whatsoever.

.

So much hate and anger over a war that was over generations before this guy was born.

What a ******* drama queen.


Leftards put on a show, to justify their CURRENT DAY HATES and actions.


It is nothing but shit talk.

1860s morals knew slavery was wrong.

Most of the world voluntarily gave it up
The US insisted on fighting to the death and killing 600,00

Yet it is TODAYS Republicans fighting to honor the legacy of the Confederacy

You are a retarded liar.


Honoring the service of the confederate SOLDIERS is not a celebration of slavery and only a lying piece of shit would claim it was.


You have just shit all over ALL AMERICANS of the last 160 years.

YOu are an anti-American piece of shit.

Nothing wrong with honoring your dead. Even the Germans do it without honoring the Nazis

What is not acceptable
Flying the Confederate Flag
State Holidays for Jefferson Davis’ Birthday
Naming US forts for Confederate generals

AMERICA had disagreed with you for over 150 years. including the generation that actually defeated the confedates.

Get over it, retard.
