Does that mean that you think that Southerns today do or do NOT have the right to celebrate their heritage?
I AM a Southerner you nitwit.
That's nice. I hope you enjoy the weather.
Does that mean that you think that Southerns today do or do NOT have the right to celebrate their heritage?
Just like Germans shouldn't praise the Nazi's southerners shouldn't celebrate their traitor ancestors even if they were Democrats.
Don't forget the south lost. We should celebrate how we kicked their asses and we should rub it in their faces with statues of Grant and Lincoln in their cities. Would they object? Why?
You assholes want to tear down those statues too.
I agree with the proposal to put them in museums. They are works of art
What other group is not allowed to publicly celebrate their heritage?
Nazis.
So no other racial or ethnic or regional groups who's right to celebrate their heritage is subject to veto by others, other than whites?
Based on race? That makes it racism and you a racist and a supporter of racism.
Nazi isn't a race, ya moron.
Correct. Seawytch was dumb to post that as an answer.
Nope, you're the moron. Nazi's are a group. Her call was correct. You're the idiot who referenced them as a race.
I did not refer to them as a race. We were discussing a racial group, and I asked for other examples of racial groups, and the lib said, "nazis". not me.
My position is that his statement was senseless idiocy. I am ignoring it. Your desire to have me defend a statement that some dishonest lib said, is denied.
Of course you referred to nazis as a race. You really are that retarded.

[emphasis added to highlight your ignorance]
See that? You didn't ask for a "racial group." You just asked for a "group." And you were given one -- nazis. And no, "Southerns" is not a racial group either. And you claim that whites can't celebrate their heritage is utter bullshit. I'm white. My heritage is from the north. I can proudly celebrate it. Southerns can't. They fucking seceded from the United States and then fought against us. Even worse, they did so to sanctify slavery. Then they got their asses kicked. There is no pride in any of that.
I dismiss your pretense of being too retarded to understand that I was referring to southern whites as a regional subset of the racial groups whites.
You are retarded, YES, I'm npot calling you a liar.
BUT, you are not THAT retarded.
(I admit that I might be being dishonest here. You are really retarded.)
The Southern Whites rose up in rebellion and fought long and hard and bravely against great odds to protect their homeland from invasion.
There is plenty to be proud of there. That you cannot grant that to your enemies is you being intellectually immature.
Southern whites were traitors to their nation and they lost.
Correct. And afterwards, the nation as a whole chose a policy of reconciliation. Part of that was the acceptance of the South celebrating it's Southern and/or Confederate heritage as a harmless expression of regional pride as part of the larger national Identity.
Today, under the concept of multiculturalism, every culture is expected to live together in harmony, with each of us, retaining and celebrating our distinct differences while tolerating the celebrations and cultures of others.
EXCEPT, for whites. Sometimes, their celebrations are deemed BAD and they are NOT allowed to do it.
No, victim, not "whites". Traitors and perpetrators of mass genocide don't get to "celebrate their heritage" in public. What they do on the dark web in their racist fan fictions is up to them as long as it stays there and out of the public square. Put all those monuments to traitors in a museum like the holocaust museum and set it as an example of what NOT to do.
What about slavery? Is slavery a good enough reason to cancel someone or something?
No one and nothing is being "cancelled" . Where, except in deep dark places like the dark web where the racists play their cosplay, is slavery NOT condemed?
So, to be clear. SLAVERY is enough reason for something to be "condemned"?
To be clear,
slavery is condemned. Yeah, the founding fathers were slave owners. That is not to be celebrated, but neither does it erase their contributions...more like balances it.
Interesting. I mention slavery, and you immediately go specifically to our Founding Fathers, with no mention of the many brown or black cultures or groups that have also practiced slavery.
YOu just demonstrated my point. That only whites' celebration are subject to veto from anyone with a whine, everyone else, is just allowed to celebrate as they see fit.
That is different rules based on race, and that makes you, for supporting it, a racist.
How many are revered by anyone? How many of these "black and brown" cultures have statues erected of them in public squares?
Racism and genocide aren't cultures.
How many are revered by anyone? Plenty.
Ancient Egypt, Ancient Africa, Ancient Latin American Empires, just about every racial or cultural group that celebrates any ancient history, is celebrating slavers.
"We wuz kings"? Those kings owned slaves.
And no one says boo about it, because people are given the right to celebrate their heritage and by the rules of multiculturalism, we are all supposed to tolerate it.
Except it seems, for whites. They sometimes, if someone wants to complain, they can be vetoed by others.
Because whites have different rules, less rights, based on their race.
It is called, racism.
