Appeasement was a huge mistake. These dipshits all running around my town like LARPers with their damn confederate flags and shit.
The Nintendo switch has been out longer than the confederacy lasted
Pauly Shore has made more movies that released in theaters than there were years of the
confederacydipshit parade
If that’s not the most racist thing I’ve heard in a while…
This feels like serious doublethink
Just wait until you hear what trump just tweeted about the jews…
I mean, he didn’t, but you were already prepared to say to yourself “Oh god, what NOW???”
Mostly because him, and controversial shit are just on brand for him. Like I could say he reverse pardoned the central park 5. That’s where you force a conviction even if the crime isn’t true.
And some people would believe me. And a reverse pardon isn’t even a thing. And even if it was, he doesn’t take oath until tomorrow.
Some people could still believe me. That’s just how shitty of a person he’s historically been, and how often he’s been shitty, that you could make up any obviously false claims, and it would still seem plausible.
I like to think I’m not any more gullible than anyone else, but every time I’ve heard something horrible from the orange convict, it’s beyond preposterous and somehow even worse than I was dreading. Yes, I’m prepared to hear and believe even worse. Yes, I can no longer enjoy political comedy because reality is more ridiculous
Trump just ate a cat.
Bullshit, he’d never eat pussy
I knew he was Hatian! How has he hidden that do well
/ducks and runs
Actually that would have genuinely suprised me considering how much Trump shills for jews and Israel.
It is crazy that the American south is still like this
Should have Year Zero’d them in 1865. Hang every plantation owner and Confederate officer, shut down every bank that funded slave purchases, break up the plantations and distribute the land to the freed slaves. May Andrew Johnson burn in hell.
Oddly enough, years ago I had an eye doctor named Robert E. Lee, and he was a black guy. Seemed like a really nice fella.
When I lived in Virginia we had Lee-Jackson-King Day:

That was 25 years ago, and I had hoped that such blatant racism was gone for good. 😔
I thought Americans celebrate winners not losers.
But he was white and hated black people. So that’s kind of thrir team.
The south lost the war but won the peace through protracted terrorism.
They don’t think the Civil War is over.
The South will rise again!
-these people
Something about projection something something
For clarification: this isn’t new, from what I can tell in the article, they started the Robert E Lee holiday following the civil war, and MLK day came after.
Not that they shouldn’t be absolutely clowned on for this.
It was Lee who opposed Confederate memorials. I’ll bet the orange traitor is toasting the fucking Confederacy right now.
I can’t wait to watch the speech.
“And along with freedom fighter, Martin Luther King, we would also like to honor the great general Lee, who fought hard to keep half of our population in servitude and went on to surrender valiantly. While he didn’t win the war, he won our hearts.”
Sherman left too much of the South intact
The Radical Republicans tried to put Sherman in charge of Reconstruction. Too bad that didn’t happen.
the USA did not try those who financed the civil war as they should have
I guess Robert E Lee losing was helpful, but I suspect they’re just racists and not honoring him for being such a loser
He really was a loser.
If your local college has a Kappa Alpha chapter, it is basically a cult dedicated to worshipping Robert E Lee. He appeals to that “war between brothers” tragic story type of “Lost Cause” narrative, and is ridiculously popular among dominionist Christians.
So what’s next? Is Trump going to celebrate Hitler on Veteran’s Day?
He already does.
I am from Virginia where we used to celebrate Lee Jackson King Day (in that order too).
