I will trust them when they admit that the confederates were the good guys.

I highly recommend reading letters from the generals on both sides of the Civil War. Most were brilliant, humble men who hated the war. It's revisionist to say it was all about slavery, because it wasn't, just as today's arguments are not just about vaccines and their benefits. The idea of secession had been tolerated every time the Northern states tried to pull it, so the idea that it was treasonous was sort of a post hoc fiction. Both sides had good arguments, though, and it's depriving yourself not to read both sides extensively.

I’m going to disagree with this common “cars are evil and ruin cities” take that Reddit and YouTube lefties always seem to have.
Seriously, the alternative is not "freely walkable and beautiful"; the alternative was streets full of shit and piss with houses made of sticks that were so close together they would wipe out the entire city if one caught fire. France opened up their boulevards in the mid-1800s purely to stop the citizens from being able to put up barricades every time there was a revolution.

Not sure if late, but them Kentucky boahs are in on the "Fuck the feds" side. More than half of the country is up in arms about this.
Meanwhile I laugh Canadianly in my comfy ass chair watching this all go down. I'll be cheering from the sidelines, Muricans!
Support for interracial marriage? who gives a fuck about that shit. Is there movement that I am not aware of to ban interracial marriage in a legislative sense.
Virginia v. Loving happened 50 years ago, now anyone can fuck any color of pussy or even artificial pussy if they can't find natural pussy.
AOC is truly out to lunch if she can't look around and see that it's the progressives who are side-eyeing her for dating a white boy.
The only challenge to interracial pairings comes from the left, who think race is so essential that it can't be reconciled. They hate interracial adoption, marriage, and friendships because it messes with their Grand Theory that people are racist. They want racism to be so bad that minorities self-segregate to protect themselves.
"Not forcing people to do things is violating their civil rights because we have no agency whatsoever and must be told what to do".
Clown World is never so bad that it can't get worse.

The DOJ/DOE/ACLU/anyone supporting this joke of a case is pants-on-head stupid. It's kind of crippling to many students to have to try to learn through a SCREEN while their insane families are screaming at each other, but that's somehow not a violation of their right to a free, equal, exceptional education. They weren't allowed to sue to be put back in schools.
I've talked to others about state elections having their own electoral colleges, so that one blue county doesn't control the entire state. It wouldn't result in something like Nebraska where the votes are split, it's still winner-take-all, but it's not where the huge blue population center controls everything.
This is how Senate elections used to work before the 17th Amendment. The state legislature, which represented all districts of the state, made the selection for senators, so it was more representative of the actual spread of the state, not just the capital. Direct election of senators gave cities too much power and has fucked our national politics as an indirect result.
Very true. I have really come to hate the conflation of "good" with "nice". Often, the charitable thing to do is gonna stomp on feewings.
Remember even Jesus whipped the moneychangers making a mockery of people's holy places. And remember that he died to take the justice we all deserve.
