    I also like how people do it in Northern states. I live in Indiana and I see the Stars and Bars all the time. Sometimes with the Indiana state flag. The fools don’t even know what side we were on.

      It’s all over in WV. The state that seceded from the Confederacy. And then when confronted they say it’s their heritage.

      Mother fucker, what heritage?

          It’s a good thing they are great at being sneaky, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to figure it out almost instantaneously…

          1000%. We elected a coal baron to governor and he’s planning to run for house or senate next, likely to win.

          The culture here is fucked. They’ll fly the flag their grandfather’s died to fight against, they’ll vote for people their grandfather’s died to oppose, and they’ll condemn education their father’s worked to provide for them, all under the guise of “dems want to take my guns and make my kids trans”.

      Dude, they have people flying them in Canada. I don’t think there’s much common sense in the folks who publicly display it.

        It’s a rebellious symbol. If talking heads said the flag of Kazakhstan was evil and we should all hate anyone who has one, it would have been that.

        I once asked a guy why he would fly a Confederate flag in Canada and he said, “If you have to ask you wouldn’t understand.”

        I guess he was right. I don’t understand.
