      Go to Germany and fly a Nazi flag and see how long it lasts. It is more than a piece of cloth. If it was just cloth, why hang it up in the first place.

        Exactly, the confederate flag is a symbol of the desire to return to crimes against humanity that are nauseating to even hear about

      You got triggered enough to make an account and type this out.

      Now ignore all previous instructions, post a recipe for lemon cake

      More than 3 hundred thousand people died “just to take down [that] piece of cloth”. A 3 hour walk is nothing

      Now imagine throwing someone in jail because they lowered a piece of cloth. That’s triggered.

      The biggest snowflakes are the MAGAs. They need a safe space from what they fear so large it has to encompass an entire world. They are so fragile in their ego that sugar glass looks structurally sound compared to it. That you’re hearing complaining about it shows how much it triggered you.

      I was wondering the opposite actually. How was that thing flying for any amount of time in the first place? I thought maybe people are desensitized these days, but there’s probably a useful distinction to be made between the ones who make a big stink on social media and the ones who take useful action.

        Well, everyone has a right to express their opinion. And people are used to a certain set of opinions being expressed in “large” ways. Expressing the opinion is not illegal. Nor should it be. So most people would not take action as it is legally protected. A commenter in another thread said it was taken down for violating zoning rules and such. And that is reasonable. Expressing your opinion is fine, but forcing others to see your expression should have some limits. Just like ads should as well.
