NASCAR bans confederate flag
|
You even have to copy and paste your burns.
There is only one manufacturer in the US that still sells the rebel flag. It took me a while to find the numbers, but they sell 600-800 flags a year. All other major retailers banned the sale of the rebel flag years ago. You are talking about the smallest fraction of the population still buying these things. Yet, Marty thinks the rebel flag is some widespread phenomenon. It's not. Even if it were, most people don't associate it with slavery or white supremacy (though some certainly do). I understand that it doesn't matter how they personally feel about the flag when it is linked to atrocities. If that's the case, why isn't there a push by a broad swath of society that calls for the abolition of the soviet flag? We fought a war against them, too, but that symbol is allowed to stand. Why? Stop trying to win an argument and just reflect on the question. While you're thinking about it, browse all the options on Amazon and find the one that's right for you. https://www.amazon.com/communist-flag/s?...unist+flag The American flag is next. Maybe not tomorrow, but in a few years, we will see the narrative begin to strengthen that our flag glorifies the original 13 colonies and is a symbol of oppression. We will need to remove the stripes to absolve ourselves of our history, when the colonies had slaves and stripped the indigenous peoples of their land. If you think that's absurd, you're not really paying attention. Get on board early. I am not offended that Nascar banned the flag. They can do what they want. I am pointing out that the narrative flows in one direction. That is it. If you can't understand that from my post, don't know what to tell you. |
