"Why the Flag No Longer Flies on My Home in SC and Why I am an Unhappy American"

[Warpy]

31. Most of those are starting to prefer the newest Nazi flag, anyway

You know, that flag with the big, cheesy yellow "T" on it.

Let them have their made in China freak flag, it's like flying the southern battle flag, it just warns us by shouting "ASSHOLE HERE!" so we can more easily avoid them.

I can easily understand the pessimism expressed by the poster in the OP, I've lived in the south, too. The cultue down there can grind you down if you don't fit in and I never fit in, at all. I left as soon as I managed to save a few hundred bucks. I would suggest this person take a job outside Dixie and get some perspective. S/he might find out there is a whole, vibrant, ornery, and wonderful country out there.

I'm actually feeling optimistic now, even with the rise of madmen in countries around the world. It's because there's been the rise of a generation that seem equipped to realize how full of shit they are.

And yes, I'vea always felt it was my flag, too. There is no way I was going to let a bunch of right wing blowhards take it away from me.
