Even the idea that it’s your heritage… I’m sorry, I thought your heritage was being an American. It’s been nearly 250 years since the country was formed, including many of the states of the confederacy. Even the youngest state that seceded, Texas, has been in the union for 180 years. It was a part of the union for over 15 years before seceding for 4, too, almost 4 times as long. But no? It’s the 4 years that matter most? The 4 year period where the racist slavers seceded because they wanted to make sure they could continue to own humans as livestock and deny rights, freedoms and even basic human decency to people for the color of their skin or their genetic ancestry? Where they fought and died to protect THAT institution and way of life? That’s your heritage? … well, ok, then. But that sounds pretty fucking racist, doesn’t it?
