But you have no way of knowing what the confederate flag means to them without actually having a conversation.
My guy, it’s a meme. See the sidebar - “joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment.” It’s a criticism of the ‘heritage’ argument by blasely referring to Sherman’s March to the Sea, a campaign of property destruction which brought the traitorous, slaving South to its knees, as Yankee ‘heritage’. No one here is actually advocating for burning down people’s houses for the sin of flying a Confederate flag
Punching someone over a flag seems like one of those snap moral judgements you said a society cannot endure.
Yes, society cannot endure it. There’s a reason we don’t allow it.
That there is a reason that we don’t allow an action, that I support that reason, and that that reason is valid, is different than saying that the action is immoral.
