It's alright, as there isn't really something to, let's say, boast about with growing up in the south. My family and friends definition of southern pride is we're proud to be from there, and we love our family history and such. There's nothing inherently "better" about it than lets say the north, we just value it. To clarify, our opinion and understanding of "Southern Pride" or "Southern Heritage" has nothing to do with the Civil War or the CSA, we are just proud of our family history and way of life. To anyone else it does sound weird and confusing, but its just how we feel.
.
And to quote me earlier, "just because someone uses something for something doesn't mean that is what it means and what defines it". That statement meant that the original meaning of something cannot be changed or warped to fit the likes of someone or some group. The original meaning will stay forever, but they can develop additional or alternate meanings over time. We still understand the original meaning of the CBF, and that it was used by the Confederates in the Civil War, and that it is used as a symbol of the KKK and white-supremacists. But we have a new, additional, alternate meaning for it, a good, wholesome meaning, that has nothing to do with its evil past (or current bad usage). We don't forget its history or it's original meaning. But we also use the flag as its alternate representation, as I described earlier about our southern heritage and pride. @ThePilotDude
Now see, then why are we discussing this so harshly? I'm also a conservative republican. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (formerly known as Mormons). I love America and the rights and freedoms that we have here, and by the way I would never fly the rebel flag over the Stars and Stripes, I love the American flag. Brave men and women have died for that flag. That is the flag of the United States, the country I'm proud to live in and be a part of.
.
My stance on the CBF is not that of worship or praise to it's past, or what it means in terms of its meaning of slavery and racism. Southern people have used the rebel flag for generations as a symbol of the southern way of life. The racist meaning has no effect on them. They understand and value the past as a learning experience (again, not ignoring the past, because that is bad), and move on. We all know slavery, racism, white-supremacy, and all that jazz is bad. The flag stands for that according to history. But it has an alternate meaning to us. We are not against the American flag, or also "American Pride", because we are America-loving people. More southerners fly the US flag more the CBF. I would never fly the rebel flag over Old Glory. We love the United States. But to some the CBF is a symbol of southern living, not racism. Yes, it does sound hypocritical from an outsiders point of view, as you said, "You claim to love your country yet fly the flag of the rebel nation that stabbed that country in the back? How does that make sense?". We don't give a crap about the CSA anymore. Not even brought up. Same with racism. We all know its bad and wrong. Yes, from a historical standpoint the flag is racist. Why would I deny blatant facts? Nor am I changing them. But the CBF has a new meaning to us. We remember its old meaning and what wrong things it represented. But that's not what it means to us now. Southern pride is a special pride, that literally has nothing to do with the CSA. Part of my family is also from Arizona, they are proud to be from Arizona. Why can't we be proud of our southern family heritage, while also being proud to be Americans?
You are failing to mention the the time in US history when it is used as a symbol of heritage in the south by common, normal citizens (a lot of southern people). Obviously you are a one sided person, I have reiterated and agree on the facts you have stated, but I have my own opinion (not mine, but a group of people’s) on what the flag means. I am not denying the history, but your just failing to mention the quite obvious fact of how people who use the flag in everyday life as a symbol of their heritage, not as CSA propaganda. It’s the snowflakes and leftists of the government and the population who can’t let people live they want to live (the common southern citizen isn’t infringing on anyone’s rights) so they try and shut them down because, “Oh no! Someone’s offended by the rebel flag! Take it down! Remove the CSA statues! They are racist!” I personally am against LGBTQ and gay pride stuff because of my religious beliefs and my personal opinions. Do I go and protest against them at their rallies and gatherings and stuff? No, because I believe in the freedom to believe in what you want and say what you want, that’s part of what America is about, until you start infringing upon my rights to believe and support what I want. Calling the CBF, me, and those who support the Confederate flag as a part of southern heritage “anti-American”, is quite anti-American.
.
And you said heritage is all about the CSA. Dude, obviously you didn’t understand. The CBF has been a part of my southern FAMILY for generations. Southern Pride and Heritage isn’t just “Civil War memories”. This pride is about the southern way of life,
Your also ignoring the fact that most people who use the flag nowadays don't care about and are not white supremacists or racists. Yes, the flag represented (Still does according to facts you said) slavery and the CSA cause, but literally only a smaller percentage of people are making a big deal about it being racist or whatever, because the other small percentage of people use it that way, or because of its original meaning. I agree with you that it was used as a symbol of the CSA, a racist and hateful place. I'm not denying facts over feelings. I am saying that the majority of people are not against the flag, and some people show their support for it, including me. Yes, that is hypocritical, if you just pay attention to the facts and meaning during the Civil War, or the KKK and neo-Nazis. Facts don't change, I agree with you on that. But just because the flag was meant to support the CSA, doesn't mean that is what it means today. The Dukes of Hazzard use the CBF on their car, so are they trying to spread CSA propaganda? Are the producers of the show racists? No. A large majority of my family is southern, and they grew up with the rebel flag, and the song "Dixie". Are they racists, white supremacists, and slavery-loving? No! That flag is a part of their heritage, whether you call it racist and call them hypocrites or not. I am proud of my southern heritage, and I accept that flag as part of it. Are you calling me racist, and anti-American?
Awesome!

Not soon, I've got a lot of other stuff to upload too. @TheFantasticTyphoon
Yeah, most are extinct. @Stormfur
Yes indeed they did, have you not heard about them? @ThePilotDude
Good, some mods are helpful to have @Marcochoy2007
