@ThePilotDude @Strikefighter04 this has nothing to do with your argument and I'm like 4 years late but:

Using the swastika, I can't just say "oh that means german greatness" and expect that that will actually change reality

Hitler was a nut job and just thought his flag would look "cool", so the symbols like the swastika have no meaning for anything on the Nazi flag, other than Nazism.

In fact, the swastika does have a deep meaning. For thousands of years, East/South Asian religions such as Buddhism have used the swastika as a symbol of peace (and it's still widely used today). If I remember correctly, Hitler used the swastika for his flag as it was meant to symbolise bringing "peace" to Germany and later Europe (by uniting the entire continent).

So yes, people will get offended if you say that the swastika is purely to show Nazi pride.

Kinda crazy that the world is coming to this. @DatRoadTrainGuy19

@Strikefighter04 man that drama in the comment is over a couple years old, sheesh were those people really are snowflakes isnt it? Makes me want to wonder how many more one sided snowflake idiots there is on the internet and irl.

Yes you should! @realSavageMan

I should build one with this paint on a latest Challenger model haha

@YesMyFriend well if you're going to come in and make misleading claims it's going to result in an argument. This issue shouldn't be controversial, but due to a century of misinformation and propaganda people honestly believe that the CSA was morally right, and that it's "heritage not hate"

@ThePilotDude ok maybe i shouldnt have started this controversial thing with the confeds and the north bc i dont want to be hated :P

@YesMyFriend prageru is not the place to go when it comes to Civil War education. As to the flag you posted a link to, that was the first national flag of the CSA, which was quickly replaced by this due to its similarity to the US flag. When I said "used by white supremacists", I'm talking about during and post war, with reconstruction, Jim Crow, and the people that opposed Civil Rights in the 1960s. It is a white supremacist flag.

@ThePilotDude white 'supremacists' actually didnt bring the slaves tho.

that flag is actually a conservative flag on the car

@ThePilotDude this is the confed flag: https://postimg.cc/k6SDXnCh

@ThePilotDude well i have been watching some prageru

@YesMyFriend Northern border states had slaves, yes, however they didn't betray America to keep them, and got rid of the practice after the passing of the 13th Amendment. Yes, that design is the Confederate flag. It was first the main battle flag of the country, and then a part of the national flag, and has been used by white supremacists ever since for that exact reason. Not sure what Lincoln being a Republican has to do with anything. Sounds like you're making some assumptions about my political leanings

@ThePilotDude just some things to keep in mind dude, first of all the north also had slaves, not only the confeds. Second of all, that's actually not the confederate flag. Thirdly, Abraham Lincoln was a republican. I just don't want to be hated. I just live in Texas and I wanted to make a point!

It is indeed @KnightOfRen

That was an entertaining read lol

Lol yeah people get triggered so fast its not even funny. @SanitaterAirlines

I’m a bit late, but it was pretty obvious people would get triggered about the flag. I’m just sitting here with some popcorn watching the thing. Looked back on when this whole thing started, and the forecast said some snowflakes would be touching down. :)

Alright cool, thanks man! @ThePilotDude

@Strikefighter04 hey, I'm sure that debate thing is far over at this point, but I found this youtube channel that does videos on this kind of stuff, very entertaining and informative, you should take a look at his "Checkmate, Lincolnites!" series to see all those CSA and Lost Cause myths properly combated. Here's a link to his video Confederate Soldiers DIDN'T Fight for SLAVERY!! (Or Did They?). And to be clear, this isn't "Yankee Propaganda", just facts.

The general leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
