We need to get Ebay, KMart or Walmart, etc. to ban the sale of Che Guevera shirts and stickers, the Cuban Communist Flag, and the Flag of Iran, Red China, No. Korea and Russia since all are sponsors of “State terrorism” and aggression against their neighbors.
Also no statues allowed of mass murderers/advocates of, such as Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh, Che, etc. in the US or US possessions, or they must put up next to them statues of Hitler, Himmler and Eichmann.
Equality of free expression is a two way street, comrades and libs. However, if you stand in the middle of a two-way street, you are going to get hit from both sides, and deservedly so.
We can have a lot of fun in the newspapers and on talk shows using this countering approach re the Confederate Battle Flag (which I do not like but would not try to banish from history).
This is happening fast like the virus that causes a zombie apocalypse. Can’t recall anything like this.
“”I’m pretty much in the “It belongs in a museum” camp that a lot of conservatives have expressed.””
That is not a conservative position, that is the surrender and bend over position
The civil war was not a civil war technically, as no one was trying to overthrow the US government. It was really a war of Independence, just like the USA revolutionary war or the Texas War of Independence from Mexico. The CSA set up its own President, congress, branches of government, printed its own money, claimed independence and broke away. All flags in a war of independence are a symbol of treason in that respect. I don’t think the UK suddenly gets butt hurt over seeing the American flag though at one time it was a flag of treason.
Your premise is flawed.
Leftists don’t care about treason.
That Lee quote at the bottom is quite apropos considering this situation that we face. Would that we all had this mentality when fighting our battles—big and small, political or personal. I am tired of people capitulating to the ever-shifting sands of modern “culture” and it’s time we collectively put our foot down and take the wheel away from those who seek to drive us off the cliff.
For later
