One group didn't kill millions of people.
Is the number of people who died and were oppressed under slavery really an issue? Is this a numbers game?
Also, from the Wikapedia: About
10.5 million slaves arrived in the Americas. Besides the slaves who died on the Middle Passage, more Africans likely died during the slave raids in Africa and forced marches to ports. Manning estimates that 4 million died inside Africa after capture, and many more died young.
So, if this really is a numbers game - yeah. What is the difference between the Nazis and Confederates on this particular point? This isn't a personal criticism. It's just, sometimes I just don't get the points being made. Human beings died in slavery. They had shorter and brutal lives that were never truly lived. Those were the "lucky" ones.
There are a lot of good things to be proud about in the South and there are other icons, aside from the Confederate fag or Confederate monuments, to celebrate. Choosing this particular symbol might not directly mean White Pride, but it also says that the horrible White Pride history doesn't mean enough to the person to stop and think how this iconography worship wounds and intimidates other people. That's my buck o' five on this.
