My dad thinks people who put Confederate flags up are admirable and just “proud of their ancestry”… Oh dear.

It could be admirable if the ancestors they’re proud of weren’t treasonous Confederates. I’m proud of my ancestors who killed Confederates at Gettysburg.

RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The “good” part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don’t intend to make this a “safe space” where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That’s why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that’s fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
