), and surprisingly I came away admiring the political parts of Infinite more than anything else in the game. America really did have really ugly moments in its past, and a lot of people forget/don't know about that. There's a big tendency on my side to "whitewash" (as it were) history, to be a little too "Yeah, but" when it comes to the Confederacy and things like the heinous mistreatment of Chinese railroad workers and all that should never be forgotten. I mean, I know a ton about American history; and even I had no idea how bad the slave trade situation was (in terms of numbers taken and those who died en route anyway).

NejD posted:i think its important to bring up a few things for one the cross wasnt used a symbol for Christianity for about 200 years after its formation and its use wasnt particularly wide spread for about another 200 before that the Ichthys was used primarily it wasnt something that early christians were comfortable using it and in fact they wouldnt write the word and used a different symbol the Staurogram. Also at least for the symbols already mentioned that have changed their meanings the new meanings have been vastly different from their originals where as with the confederate flag it hasnt really been removed from the original use of the flag. I'll be that guy and leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJSZcxXe7IQ Just thinking of John.
