And they kept reinstalling it after people took it down until finally a bunch of communists cut the flagpole down
What important moment in US history was that flag symbolizing?
Also Western politicians did start allying with Southern politicians during the Civil Rights Era. It's not a coincidence that some specific moments were recognized.
The United States fought a civil war between 1860 and 1865.

this must be why they flow the swastika in reichstag to this day
If you can't make your point without resorting to insincere sarcasm, then you never had a point to begin with.
lmao
damn dawg she's so owned you totally won this debate and we all agree that flying the confederate flag can actually be cool and normal now
If you can't rebut a point without resorting to insincere debate pervert tone policing, then you never had a rebuttal to begin with.

Where's the union jack then?
You have to contort yourself like an absolute fool to believe the argument you're making.
The Union Jack appears as the canton of the "Grand Union Flag".
Weird to have an important moment in a different country's history
Also flown are the pre-statehood flags of the Republic of Texas and the California Republic, as well as US flags that predate the present Constitution.
And they all burn equally well
Yeah, and America has been harassing the middle east since at least 1964. That doesn't make it a good thing
And the moment it was torn down is now also an important moment in US history.
Dickhead.
americans will complain about pride flags and then have a pdf ready to go showing dozens of flags symbolizing their evil empire

you must understand how your comment comes across comrade, it's not great. I've enjoyed reading about the different flags though, so thank you for that at least.
the Moultrie Flag is pretty cool, interesting I've never seen that one when people start ~~defending slavery~~ talking about southern heritage
"States" are such bullshit. "Oh, it's not the USA doing it, It's Dipshitska, which is part of the United States except when it wants to do something bad then our hands are tied! So sad!"
