LP0 ON FIRE posted:that have the confederate flag. i think it's sort of missing the point. erasing history can do damage to society. having it in games and stories is a reminder of what we now see as ignorant. if we don't have these reminders, then over time humanity could make the same mistakes all over again Isnt this supposed to be the funny computer forum? gas thread, ban op.

kwinkles posted:you could argue that having those same six flags on the state seal is not showing any more loyalty to the confederacy than it is to france, spain, or mexico, but the confederacy was never an internationally recognized state and the others were so it's kinda hosed up that it is on the state seal and that the confederate seal is on the capitol building along with the other five seals. Ya while I understand the desire to remove blatant references to the Confederate flag (like, say, removing one flying at a state capital), you have to draw the line somewhere. The Confederacy was a big deal and there are a lot of indirect references to it, like the texas state seal. Or, fun fact, the LSU Tigers are a reference to the "Tiger Rifles" from the Civil War. Should we rename the Tigers? Obviously thats not going to happen.

quick reminder that they are not games that contain the symbol of a insurrectionist nation that fought for the right to own slaves, they are entertainment apps that contain the symbol of an insurrectionist nation that fought for the right to own slaves
