we see ragged Trump crap and Confederate flags. Want to tell them they really do not respect those images, but really do not want to interact with them.

I am from GA, my great great great(?) grandfather was a Confederate soldier. Blount County was split during the war. I want to ask people with Confederate flags about which ancestor they are honoring....but again, do not want to speak to them.
