Confederate monuments, streets/buildings/parks/places/colleges/etc named after problematic historical figures that shouldn't be celebrated. Stuff like that.

I don't disagree that we have problems. It's not specific to the south though. If there were a simple solution, someone would have implemented it already.

I do know that you won't win anyone to your side or convince anyone with snarkiness or negativity though. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm all for taking down the monuments and fixing the messed up things that are weird relics from the past, but I don't think saying the south will fall again is as clever as you think it is.

There are plenty of people who live in the south who aren't racist pieces of shit. We all live here. No one has tried to leave the union and form a new confederacy (lately, lol).

Idk, just sounds gross. There are more people living here now that I want good things for. I don't want society to crumble and fall just because it's southern, but that's just me. I don't think the answer is more snark and negativity, but do you.
