The confederate flag represents history that wanted to keep slavery amongst other things as law. How does anyone in their right mind justify keeping it for “historical” reasons? I want to know

I don't question their judgement. I question their own intentions. When folks have to take crutch of "Historical reasons", it is a losing argument. If it is needed for historical reasons, it should be in Smithsonian with a label of "loser" flag beneath it or may be a few museums here and there. Not on a frikkin hat or an auto bumper.

At this point it’s just more of the us against them mentality. For many Trump supporters, his greatest asset is that high-minded liberal elites hate him. And so it goes with this flag.

I'm a minority and don't mind seeing the flag. It let's me know exactly who and where I should avoid. LOL.

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines. She now requires that I go back to the office to “show face” that HR is right alongside the essential employees. I have been more productive from home vs the office. I get the perspective of team unity, but is it wrong to feel there is no reason to risk my health? The company justifies increasing my covid risk (high-risk already) to “show face”, when my job is being fulfilled while WFH. Am I crazy?

Anyone willing to refer or can share any info?

I don’t know if coming out is something I should do or not anymore. My girlfriend and I want to get married in the next couple of years but thats not something I want to keep secret. It hurts me that I feel like I have to do that, but I don’t want to risk losing my job. I know they can’t fire me for being in a wlw relationship but they don’t have to give a reason. I don’t want the backlash of the community either since the area I teach in is really rural. Just sad I guess.

As some one who’s on the left political spectrum, there are some things I just don’t understand

1) What is genuinely wrong with universal, free healthcare provided by a government entity ?

2) Why is there opposition to taxing the super rich at 70%?

3) Is it not clear that electoral campaigns sponsored by corporations are problematic for a democratic society ?

4) Everyone says “get an education” but that’s impossible with high costs. Why not make tuition free of charge ?
