True story, in Tennessee, the first school field trip I remember was visiting Confederate battle fields and war memorials.

When read about it youll learn the the confederacy was abhorrent in its philosophy. Up there with the Nazis. It's really no surprise the US is where it's at now. MAGAs are not Nazis, they are a Neo Confederacy. Their rhetoric, their philosophy, their strategy, it's all reflected.

The Pledge of Allegiance was written after the Civil War.
