Is the southern flag bad

Answer 1

It isn't inherently bad. It represents the Confederacy of the southern states, a part of American history. Many people view it as a symbol of southern pride. Many people also believe the confederate flag to be a symbol of slavery and racial prejudice or even hate. Where people miss the point on whether the flag is racist is they don't understand the flag of which they complain. The DIXIE flag( blue bars with stars ) was the BATTLE flag of the South, not the official flag of the Confederacy Many men who were not slave owners or opposed to slavery fought for the South,i.e., General Lee. Just because a racist waves it doesn't make " it" racist. It is a part of the history of the South. If you want to carry racism to its illogical extreme, I would suggest that we remove all crucifixes from America as it is the symbol of the KKK which they take delight in setting on fire.

Answer 2

The Confederate flag, often associated with the American South, has a divisive history. Some view it as a symbol of Southern heritage while others see it as a symbol of racism and oppression due to its connection with the Confederacy and history of slavery. It is important to consider the perspectives of those who may be offended by its display.
