@Sengorn Leopardae *understandable have a great day*

I mean I don't find the confederate flag offensive.....it just depends on the person

It was the states right to be free of tyrannical taxes and to express their legal right to seceed

When general Sherman finds the confederate camp

Luckily for me im over here in britain though its not great. Tbf

Like none of y'all are racist so...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like, I see the nuances of the Civil War. I do.
I still don't give a doodle about the Confederacy or Union. They ended centuries ago.

More directly, the states' rights to leave the Union. The confederacy left the union to keep their slaves. The Union declared war on the confederacy to stop them from leaving. So the war was fought over whether or not they could leave. They left over slavery.

I'm not offended by the flag either

Not true

**that moment when someone calls you racist when your white without even talking to them**

@Apathetic didn't u known... every white person has something to do with the KKK

Y’all remember world war 2

I searched up the racial jungle quote and snopes said it was "correct attribution"

Good times

the war didn't have a huge focus on slavery until around 1863 when Licoln dropped the emancipation proclamation (which btw freed NOONE)

@Izzy Say Whaat!? yeah same

I mean not gonna deny that I like wearing white clothes with pointy hats...

@hhkl_-00 Elaborate on "it not freeing noone".

Freed slaves that were residing in states actively rebelling against the Union... thats like Trump making a law that is for Mexico

So I understand.

ooh

I see

They were separate

He freed 0 union slaves and 0 rebel slaves because he had no controll over rebelling states

So no black person fought in the union?

Blacks fought in the Union

they also fought in the Confederacy

Both armies were diverse in race

The Union more so

states got mad because the north and de south disagreed on how many new states in the west should have slavery or not, base cause of the civil war

Yeah I know
