Topic	I'm guessing people who automatically associate the confederate flag with racism
hollow_shrine 05/30/18 9:43:39 AM #26:	I live here, and when I see that, I see someone explicitly using an icon from a time when I was legally property, to channel a sense of 'southern pride' or a sense of 'the lost golden age ~~(of white supremacy)~~.'

By all means, tell me that it's not racist. When onlookers see you caping for that flag, they know where your priorities are. --- Ignorance is a choice https://imgtc.com/i/7UnK3hx.jpg <cite>hollow_shrine posted [p:902238810] in I'm guessi...
