Why u mad?

I'm offended. He should've said "to whom"

I'm sidestepping some parts of his past for obvious reasons, but you get the idea.

My favorite version of the same
- Ooh, I have a dukes of hazzard model ive had for years because I didnt want to throw away a perfectly good model, and I also didnt want to make a racist shitbox. This is a solid option.
- Love it, though the blue could be a shade more midnight for me.
He's got some serious Hugh Jackman vibes - maybe that Wolverine stuff is based in reality.
The worst thing Sherman ever did was stop
- His interactions with native Americans is at least up there.
  I agree that they should have let him destroy more of the slavery infrastructure, though.
We need a shermanposting sub on Lemmy.
- Yeah, but at least we have one in the Fediverse:

  Having said that, if you make a community, I'll help mod for it.
Which parts? The slash and burn to the sea part? Not saying it was right but would we be here now if he carried it out?
- The parts after the war. I got my timeline backward. He was a big advocate of the ethnic cleansing of the Sioux, and other tribes, in which he participated to a limited extent.
  No debate about destroying the infrastructure that was upholding slavery. If anything, I think the slaves should have gotten all the assets of their former masters and the US should have gone through with reconstruction.

It’s offensive to our lord and savior Charlie Kirk who died for our right to die from gun violence

I bought the T-shirt at his funeral!

See also "The civil war was about states rights" "States rights to what?"

I'm pretty sure the civil war was about the northern states' right to not capture and return escaped slaves
- Funny story. Back in the day, Massachusetts found a loophole- there was a case in my town, where a couple slave catchers showed up, and grabbed the wrong guy- the son of a buisness owner and prominent black family.
  They were immediately besset upon by a mob, and got thrown in jail. There were riots, and people threatening to burn down the jail ( a 1room shack with just the 2 slavers in it)
  When they were brought in for arraignment, judge decided on a summary judgment, claiming it was too dangerous for them, to either be released or held in custody for a trial.
  He opted to impress them I to service, on a whaling ship, which was a 90% black crew.
  Yep, he litterally made them slaves ri a black man. They were both 'lost at sea' within 2 months.

Using their beloved rebel flag as the noose is the cherry on top.

Totally. It's their "heritage" so it serves well.

"Oh who the fuck am I offending!? The Nazis??"

Just reminded me of that quote from the Hellsing abridged series. Extrajudicial murder is still not good.

Doktor: "It looks like our forces are getting slaughtered."
Major: " Aw, who gives a shit? They're Nazis."

18 U.S. Code § 2381:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death

big if true

This is secretly the best ad ever. Where can I buy it?

Where is this dude wearing this? Pretty sure he’d risk getting shot where I live.

Eh, he's likely already at risk because of his skin color.
Find a new place to live
- Find somewhere where I can make as much money and have as high of living standard.

I’m not saying this is the only place and I’m DEFINITELY not promoting it because t-shirt scams based on memes are well established. But it is interesting to look at.

$45 for a shirt is ridiculous.
- Hey it’s a small business. You give $45 to morons all the time. This at least goes back to Americans who aren’t billionaires.
- Then don’t buy it. If you just want something to cover up, go to a thrift store. If you want a shirt with specific art on it you either pay what the artist asks, make it yourself, or go without.

sign me the fuck up I will wear that shit every day.

Another woke DEI moment!

I am offended because there is something that looks like a swiss flag. It probably has another symbolism, but I don't like my country being associated to the KKK

Well, that is the KKK symbol on wikipedia. You should probably direct your grievances to the racist fucks at the KKK.
you think that's annoying? Spain is tired of telling everyone that those aren't klan hoods and they had them from before the US even started considering racism.

Where would you get one of those? Asking for a friend.

Several results showing that the back says in giant bold letters KILL THE KLAN so just Google that
a lot of people have been stealing the design so if you want to get it from the source it's radresistance.com

"You're incinting violence" "You make it sound like it's a bad thing"

Here's a recent list of lynchings in America. Many are deemed "a suicide". https://newsone.com/playlist/black-people-lynched-recent-years/
So this shirt is just suicide awareness in that case.
- Asking white judges to rule against white killers

Found one on eBay. Just search, "Kill the klan." There are a bunch of sellers and options.

But it's our heritage!

Yo where can I get me that shirt?

I want one…

Good trouble!

Now I need the ICE one.

This is the ICE one

Fuck 'em

lmao them talking about being offensive

I want to work on HR to call them in, then high five then and let them hang out instead of having to work, bring drinks too. then ask them to look sad when they leave my office

I.... Kind of see what they're getting at. And it's not that their argument is without merit, it's just.... That argument makes you seem like a racist asshole.

Ignoring the hate crime context of it all, the image depicts someone who has been executed, at it's basic level.

The idea of having someone walk around with a depiction of an execution on their apparel... I kind of get.

However, given the context of the image, being who has been executed, it's hard to make the argument that walking around showing the execution of a person depicted as one of the most notorious hate groups ever, is bad because it's a depiction of an execution, without also implying that you don't want kkk members to be hanged, and you're therefore sympathetic to them.

That's a whole "yikes" from me. I certainly wouldn't stop anyone from wearing this, and hell, if someone links it, I may just buy one myself and wear that around. My "yikes" is for anyone wanting to walk the line that they somehow are not sympathetic to the kkk, while still taking issue with this shirt.

without also implying that you don’t want kkk members to be hanged, and you’re therefore sympathetic to them.
no?
- It's hard to make the argument that the shirt is bad, without implying oneself to be sympathetic to the KKK.
  So whoever doesn't like the shirt implies themselves with the KKK.
I want to buy this shirt. I also want one of a Nazi.
Along what your saying I remember shirts of Muammar Gaddafi when he was killed and also remember Saddam Hussein shirts in not very flattering depictios. People who dislike this shirt I wonder how they felt/feel about the ones I mention?

FCC has already banned him from late night TV

I want a tattoo like this

Apparently you cant say the truth?
