I'm just saying that gay people have more right to erect statues of their idols and wage war against America than the crusty-ass Confederates do.

Yeah but the Confederacy has had 100% of its potential existent time already while gay marriage hasn't even had 10%, so the Confederacy was around longer relative to how long it was around which makes it much more important. And that's why I own thirty six Confederate flags even though I'm not American.

I think Atun-Shei accidentally made an amazing point when he talked about the 4 other confederate monuments very near the Robert E Lee statue that were taken down and absolutely no one noticed or cared.

It really has nothing to do with history. The people celebrating the statues and demanding they stay (who near entirely never live near where the Statues are) are cherry picking statues that have significance to fucking over black people and progressives.

^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

Of course the attitudes and bonds that make up the Confederacy have stayed alive and proliferated into the 21st century. That's how you get shit like "the South will rise again" getting into the cultural lexicon to this day, and how the Confederate flag was adopted as the "rebel flag" up until recently.

But legally and institutionally, the Confederacy only existed for a few years. Like you can go "the south will rise again", but it's doubly stupid when you're calling for a grand return to this idealized southern past that existed for less time in human and American history than gay people being able to marry each other in the eyes of the Lord.

If gay marriage were to ever get repealed - god forbid, but which is what America's unending supply of qanon stooges are gunning for after Roe v. Wade - gay people will have more cause not only to rally and fight for the restoration of their civil liberties and rights, but they'll have more cause to hang up their flag and talk about how their time in the sun will come again. Not only because gay marriage didn't hurt anyone or result in anything approaching the reality of war, but because it existed for significantly longer in America's long and storied history than the Confederacy - almost twice as long, in fact.

The Confederacy never went away in spirit, but as a legal institution they only existed for six years. Your average confederate-shilling moron literally has less of a leg to stand on than gay people in America, whose rights have been introduced and preserved more than those racist, warmongering pricks - note to mods, I'm referring to an enemy combatant of the United States, not any currently living human being or user of this forum.

Well yeah, they never had it in the Confederacy, so of course it's been around longer in America.

People said the same thing about abortion and look where we are. Besides, Republicans have no low they won't stoop to. They like seeing people they think are below them suffer. They still hate anyone a part of the LBGT+ community.
