I want Gator bait back, too, but I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing to re-evaluate our icons and analyze the symbolism behind them

There's definitely a competition going on amongst corporations to be the most woke (see Aunt Jemima among others) which I think is fairly meaningless in the overall discussion of systemic racism, but private corporations can make whatever choice they want in attempting to appease as many people as possible.

But, like, fearing that the United States government will change the flag because of external pressure is the most ridiculous, extreme example.

You guys think status-quo Joe Biden is going to sign an executive order to ban the flag? Yeah, ok

Banning no but he would absolutely change it after he got in(assuming he gets a blue wave like the polls are saying whatever you think of polls) and has control of the congress he could take a MetaMucil dump in the rotunda at that point and get away with it.

Joe Biden, who wears a flag lapel pin pretty regularly, is going to sign an executive order that would be unpopular with 90% of the country to change the flag?

I don't see it. Biden is a milquetoast, moderate Democrat, which is why he's polling so well -- Trump can try to paint him as an agitating extremist but the vast majority of America isn't buying it

You can’t be milquetoast after tonight and how trump will go after him and he will say something that Biden can slam home. There’s zero chance that joe Biden isn’t a kneeling pandering son of a gun when he starts campaigning again. He’s gaffe city even back when he was grilling Clarence Thomas. He’s only vanilla now because of the ronis

Joe is teflon just like Trump is. Gaffes don't stick to Joe anymore -- if they did, people would have run away a long time ago. But they didn't, and he's polling better than ever.

Trump has his 30% of the country on lock, but further slamming Biden and BLM protesters isn't winning over the independents who voted for Trump over Hillary in 2016 based on the logic that they knew that Hillary was evil and were willing to give the unknown outsider a shot. Everyone knows what a Trump presidency is like now, and polling (I know, I know) shows that people don't like it

That may all be true. But they are eventually going to get around to banning the American flag, and any flag colored Red White and Blue, because why not do it its associated with other "racist" symbolism...there is no logic to their psychosis. Its a crusade of anger, wearing a clever disguise.

Very false and way off base abt the American Flag

The American Flag is "connected" to the Constitution, the ideals of the Constitution have always been very lofty, that all men are created equal, and that freedom is among our most cherished principles, that is what the American Flag has going for it and that is why it is not perceived to be racist

The Constitution didn't specifically allow slavery, it didn't outlaw it either until later amendment(s)

The perception of the American Flag is that it should have guaranteed Freedom for all , but men effed that up for their own selfish reasons, wealth etc

The loser arse rebel flag cannot make a claim that it is connected to a Constitution that in theory wanted Freedom for all, to the contrary the loser arse rebel flag is connected to an insurgence that wanted to create a slave-ocracy, so the American Flag won't have the same issues as loser arse confederate symbology


You really are very young aren't you, or just ignorant? The very first law passed by the US Congress after ratification of the Constitution was an immigration act that restricted immigration to only White men of good charater. Lincoln was a hard core White supremacist who wanted Blacks sent to either South America or Africa. Only modern niceities keep more people from learning about Abe's racism. But if you don't believe me, go read what he had to say in the Lincoln - Douglas debates.

The North had five slave states, during the war.
It had children working in factories. Its House of Representative voted against passage of the 13th Amendment in 1864 (which would have freed the Northern slaves), before the end of the war. States like Oregon passed laws to keep Blacks out of their state. I could go on and on. Finally, our beloved US govt genocided the Native American after breaking treaty after treaty with them. And our men lost the Vietnam War, and we have been stuck in quagmires in the ME for two decades now, but the rebel flag, not the US flag, is a loser flag, right? Got it.

I agree Trump is in big trouble, but mainly because he has tried to appease the "racial justice" crowd with idiotic "criminal justice reform" and because he has failed to tell the truth about race and crime.

I don't think he has even said anything about BLM lately. All he has to do to win back a demoralized base is tell the truth and order the National Guard to restore full order to the land, and tbat includes anywhere where radical leftists are toppling statues.

Trump is called an authoritarian, despite never acting like one and despite hiring people who never supported his campaign agenda. President Kushner is the cancer that is destroying Trump's chances.

The communist are using the blacks against our country. Over the past 3-4 decades the left (which are communist) took over the education system and hired Marxist professors. While most people where enjoying life these professors brain washed our kids. Now we will have to eliminate them if our constitution is to survive.

And had you lived in the 18th Century and early 19th Century you would not have made the same mistakes because you would have been so much more enlightened than virtually everyone alive at the time? Even those who were more “progressive” at the time would be regarded as immoral racists by today’s society.
Judging the people of the past by today’s standards is a foolish and prideful endeavor. We somehow assume that we would have been morally superior had we lived in those times. But our concepts of equality and freedom today are directly connected to those leaders of the past who were, like all human beings, neither perfect nor omniscient. There is no need to dishonor them because they were flawed people, as we are ourselves. But there is great reason to be grateful for the vision they had and laying the foundations that allowed us to have the freedoms we enjoy today. Honor them for what they got right, and learn from what they got wrong.

George Soros and the communist democrats are behind this. Why is George Soros still alive? His son was on Obomas’ staff. They are all communists. George Soros is funding BLM/Antifa. Just like contracting these groups to destroy our constitution. And in doing so people are getting killed. Soros should be arrested for murder but he is in with the Communist Democrats. There was more slavery under the Stars and Stripes that went on before the civil war than under the Confederate stars and bars. Soros and the scum associated with him should all be eliminated. When you get cancer you eliminate cancer cells.

PeeJay and Plate are elated. They're removing the Teddy Roosevelt statue from the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. The President who did more for conservation than any other. This is where their cultural fascism leads:
