Could we just one time have some event in DC with MAGA people where a Confederate loser flag doesn't show up?

The venn diagram between the two groups is a circle, so probably not

It really amazes me that the guys who say party of Lincoln are also flying the flag of the country that fought Lincoln.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

Not only that, the flag that LOST to Lincoln. It's some bizzare history cuck dom-sub thing. I don't get it.

That’s because they took the party to shit over it with their racism. Of course, the idiots haven’t caught on that Lincoln was a progressive, which are Democrats, but then, they wouldn’t be idiots.

Can't we just get rid of the MAGA people instead?

I'm sure they could be useful doing manual labor.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Nah, just deport them. Preferably somewhere off-planet.

Why do either when you can do both?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

If you're doing both, you're doing either.

Maybe have a booth with a Confederate flag on one end and a Union flag in the other with a torch sitting in between. Have a sign saying "BURN ONE. SALUTE THE OTHER." I'd love to see what they'd do.

A sign? You expect them to read?
