Frank M 181 Posted June 24, 2015 I bet you won't answer this question: Would you rather be black and have you and your family sent to a plantation in the south in the early 1800's or be Jewish in the 1940's and you and your family are sent to Auschwitz? Come on now, let's see if you can pick one without bloviating about it. Jesus focking Christ, you and the fake doctor argue like twelve year olds. If it's not stupid anecdotal sh1t or "you just wouldn't understand" type arguments, it's "Let me judge your opinion about this subject by asking a Which Would You Rather question". And you think you're the intelligent one in the conversation. I don't know, maybe becausethe Nazis exterminated 6 million people in the matter of a few years vs slavery in the U.S. affecting a few hundred thousand over 70 or so years? Gee, let me see. Quick genocide versus slow painful subjugation resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths. I guess you're right. That surely means that the confederate flag is less bad than the swastika since it was less deaths over a longer time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of the time they were extremely slow deaths. More so than quick deaths. Slavery was bad and slaves were treated badly. However there were slaves that were treated good as well. Some also freed. The Jews however were never treated well and were almost always killed. Neither was good though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meaning that the swatstika is a representative of a greater evil than the confederate flag. Thanks again As usual, you missed the main point of the argument. It wasn't that one symbolized something worse than the other, it was that even symbols that were representative of positive things can have their symbolism changed over the years to something horrific, so arguing that the history of the confederate flag wasn't implicitly racist is meaningless to how people view it now.
