It's even funnier when I hear that in my neck of the woods - it's like these idiots don't understand why there's a West Virginia or why a new state right on the Mason-Dixon line might have been formed in the middle of the country in 1863. Like for fucks sake, we literally became a state to avoid joining the Confederacy, how the fuck is a Confederate flag part of our heritage?
Hell, I'm from Wisconsin, and our "heritage" is sending the Iron Brigade to the Second Battle of Bull Run only to be badly outnumbered, but fucking holding, anyway. People from Baraboo apparently weren't impressed and still wave around the Confederate battle flag.
Fuck Baraboo. Nobody would give a shit about you if not for that grifter in charge of that circus.
It's the repulsive symbol of the reason for your very existence! Burn it, piss on it, do anything you want to it to continue your heritage of disliking the Confederacy and their symbols!
Yeah that’s as bad as the Cincinnati confederates. Like, motherfucker why do you think your city has a slavery museum? Go to it, it’s depressing but you need it
