Around here I hear all too often the utterly disingenuous words “heritage, not hate” as a means to defend the waving of the Confederate flag, which is a symbol of treason spurred on by the desire to systematically subjugate a race. If that’s what you call Southern heritage, you must not think the South has much else to offer, then. So I drafted up a little something which I think is a nice, succinct rebuttal to their bullshit.

And on a side note, if someone wants to claim that the Civil War was fought over states’ rights, nod your head, then say, “Yup, it was indeed about the states’ rights to have slavery.” There is no way for them to respond without sounding like a complete idiot at best, and a virulent racist at worst. And just for good measure, remind them their side was the aggressor at Fort Sumter.
