I've had that flag hanging with people of all ethnicities over at my house.  My grandfather taught me all the positive things it stood for and wasn't til I was much older did I realize people use it for hate.  One day my kids will be proud of that flag and the south.  Anything can bring bad in something good and vice versa.  Stars and Bars!

Apple cares enough to pull apps, but not enough to keep their business in America.

Because most of the people who will be upset by it are too broke for it to afford Apple products, meanwhile Apple stands to potentially strengthen its iron grip on wealthy liberals who can't figure out how to use a real computer.

Public relations for a suddenly toxic product.  What lawsuit do you think is here?  I don't see a tort.

You must be new to the Shroomery.

It doesn't matter if every argument has been made, people will just keep arguing the same points over and over until a mod locks the thread.

Then someone will make a post asking why it was shut down when there was a legitimate discussion being had. That will get maybe to page 2 before it's shut down as well.

Then if it's a really good day someone will make a thread asking why the "why did xxxxx thread get shut down?" thread got shut down.

I noticed that some people on this thread think that the South went to war over slavery.  That is inaccurate.

The Civil War-1861

The Emancipation Proclamation-1863

Now who was arguing that it started over slavery?

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835)

The Civil War was about slavery. It was about "states' rights" insofar as it was about whether or not states should have the right to uphold the legal institution of slavery. The southern states said yes, the northern states said no, and the southern states got knocked into line.

I'm not saying southerners shouldn't be proud of their heritage and history, because all of that happened a long time ago... nobody alive today bears personal responsibility for the evil of legal slavery. But it is, in fact, a thing that happened, it's something by which we're all still being affected today whether we've benefited from that legacy or not, and if you don't face up to your history, you're going to act a damn chump.
