It will never stop being funny to me that bwfore the movie"Birth of a nation" the KKK was dressed fairly differently, the getup and terminology come from that movie (Not the ideolog, ofc they kept that), and the reason for the white baggy cloth is because the movies explanations was that african Americans where scared of ghosts so we should dress up as ghosts to scare them.

Three of those originate in the US. Amazing.

We're such a nation of reactionaries and we are so primed for fascism.

I'm sorry, but one of these is fundamentally different from the others!

The KKK one is a hood, not a hat.

Slightly bugs me that the KKK hat is before the Confederate hat; it was so close to being in chronological order.

It was originally ordered but entropy and all that.
