[SML] Taiwan water park explosion

[Jerry Durand]

And all that over the 5 plantations that used slaves (not counting all
the indentured servants in the North).  Actually, the war was more over
States Rights, but that doesn't have a flag.

The confederate flag is often flown by states to celebrate it and remember it as an identity. But, that identity is very closely associated with doing something evil, rather than good.  The swastika existed before the Nazis started using it, but now it is so closely associated with them, it cannot be use for anything else but to identify Nazis and all the evil they did.  The same is true for the confederate flag, though perhaps to a lesser extent.  For a large segment of the population, the confederate flag is inseparable from the goal of preserving slavery.
