Could anyone tell me why is it allowed to glorify traitors who cause the most disgusting internal conflict in the...

Beating someone to a stumpy pulp and inflicting permanent damage, then saying fuck it and leaving is NOT losing

Americans just think about short-term profit. Long-term consequences just aren't thought about ever in our culture

That's what the union did to the confederacy not the USA to the Vietcong

Southerner here. I've heard that a lot for different reasons from different age groups. The younger generation mainly just picked up on the commercialization of the flag as "the rebel flag" so they were raised that it just means they're a rebel, not a city slicker, drives a truck and goes muddin, likes to have a good time, and only fears God. Then they get defensive when less rural areas bring up their non-Southern rural history of it and what it means to people, and they feel those SJW libruls are just trying to take their culture and Southern pride, without consciously understanding what that symbol and "pride" were built on and basically just think history is as old as them.

The older groups have a more matured sense of "the natural order of things" after being raised during or right after segregation and were probably raised in households with a lot more explicit anger by parents during the civil rights era. An anger of perceived loss of power and respect in society, which is relatively true. They cling to the flag, sure as a race thing to some degree, but a lot as saying they rebel against a changing America and remember what the South is about and won't be told to change their traditions and sense of heritage (which a lot of urban and suburban white Americans struggle with themselves) because some upity negro in the White House tells him it's time too or those upper class homosexuals from the city want to get married and want his okay on it. He's not going to admit he's ashamed for being white and raised in the South, cause he's not, he's proud of his experience.

Unfortunately, they usually come off as asses about it, deny uncomfortable histories and traditions that arise from that, and generally try to double down and project and cement their lifestyle in policy, even nationwide. Just my two cents on it.

whats so good about larping as a rebel

The Confederate States of America were the closest thing we've ever had to a libertarian state and its right to secede was legitimate.

Bump for justice

Because it's a symbol of rebellion, and the rebel spirit has always been the American ideal. The US rebelled against England in the first place. The south rebelled against the north, but no sane person holds it against the south - they had their reasons, and they fought well enough.

More specifically, the US wanted southerners to fight America's imperial wars. Confederate flags started appearing in US military units by the time of the Spanish-American war (late-1890's), and by World War I, southerners were actually encouraged to join the US military, fly their flags openly, etc. That was the agreement.
