Concerns About Political Neutrality in the Development Team.

I think the way this post talks about 'Confederates' is more about smearing and exaggerating conservative opponents than accurately addressing historical context. It seems designed to make certain groups look extreme rather than fostering understanding or nuance.

lmao no there are still Confederates in the US still and they don't bother hiding, they hang the Confederate flag in front of their houses and put stickers their trucks, they demand Confederate statues stay up in cities and cry if you threaten to remove them, and they scream "muh heritage!" if you call them out on it.

Confederates were traitors to America - they started a civil war! that is by definition treason! - and it's only reasonable to call for self declared modern Confederates to be purged from the US government.

(There are conservatives out there who are not Confederates! And they also explicitly denounce the ideology. I'm related to some of them. I support them in trying to wrest back their political party from the Confederates who have taken it over.)
