Any of my Kentuckians planning any local protests or rallies? What’s going on across the commonwealth.
In my county there is a confederate flag flying at the old courthouse and some cowards want it taken down. Nothing new under the sun.
I don’t think it’s cowardice to want to see the flag taken down but I digress as my personal opinion on the matter is irrelevant to the facts.
Nothing going on here, but I don't like loud and upfront. I can't be a PR guy, haha. I'm too concerned on OPSEC.
Ah gotcha. If we can get something going in Frankfort I’ll definitely post it here
Imo the cowardice comes from their rejecting the flag and what it stands for, which is largely a willingness to struggle and sacrifice against all odds for the perceived greater good.
I agree on a personal level but the idea of change isn’t in itself a horrible notion.
Tricky subject, states rights vs “right to own slave” subject, so yeah
At any rate, my county used to be a confederate county and so it's part of our heritage, to take it down would rob the people of it
Ehh, everyone has the right to freedom. And the Feds nor the State should be able to control people's choices so long as it does not bring physical harm to others.
^ bingo
I mean, to tell you the truth they could take down that flag and cut it to pieces, as long as the demographic of our area is conserved, that is to me of utmost importance.
I don't like when people want to erase history, because then they expect people to forget it, and eventually they are doomed to repeat it.
I don't really care about the "Rebel flag" but when people start treating it as taboo and there's an outrage, rather than acceptance. Bad things start to happen.
Oh for sure. But I can totally see where people come from when they tend to not like the flag. Don’t have statues of Nathan Bedford, but don’t erase the history surrounding him. Ya know?
I disagree, statues are very important. As that's those people's history, their families.
Statues are for idolization of people
I used to do Civil War Reenactments (Union mostly) But we understand that the history there should be kept.
history books are where the history lays
Some people do idolize them. Just because someone was a confederate, didn't mean they were terrible people.
It's like saying all Germans in WWII were Waffen SS Nazis
Oh yeah I know. Family fought both sides, my family never owned any slaves, we had just got here from Ireland when it kicked off.
Yeah, had family on the lines as well.
For the average troop it wasn’t anything further than hey the unions coming defend this house, vice versa
I just think history should be preserved, no matter how bad.
I wholeheartedly agree
But for history to be rewritten is a crime indeed
Tell the truth no matter how ugly
I always go by, You can dislike someone/something. But try to show some respect, in others' eyes, they might have been a hero.
Like I might perceive Waffen SS Nazis as being heroes
Its just like an opinion man
Take for instance, Trumpy-boi. Some people haaaaate him. I don't really like or dislike him, but there are so many people trying to destroy the man just for doing what he believes in right.
Personally I think its all a puppet show and his power is limited by his handlers i.e. the zionist occupied government
Of course, Hitler did what he thought was right... and he wasn't a good man. But we shouldn't get rid of his image, because then who will we have to use as an example?
His image as it has been written since the fall of Germany is little more than libel and slander
I've actually heard some very very interesting things on him... And of course people are going to paint him in the worst possible light.
Honestly though, he was good for Germany. He brought them out of the depression and unified the people... the whole Jew extermination and war with the world... that's where things went bad.
If only they had checks and balances to stop that part...
Believe me, if our State was really operating in the interest of our People, we would be taught the plain old truth about the national socialists at a young age.
To be a National Socialist, is to be in the military, lmao.
