1. Because they're losers, of course!

[Aristus]

2. You beat me to it.

They are losers. And they fly the flags of losers to let everyone know.

[Ocelot II]

3. Both of those flags are symbols of white supremacy ideologies, is why.

9. Yup. That is all it has ever been about. Same for American evangelical christians.

It's where the bigots hang out. They flee to these churches whenever integration or wokeness rears its head.p

4. It would be most interesting to hear what their answers might be.

I’m guessing they’ve never thought of it in those terms.

5. If any proud military veterans are among those who own such flags

I wonder if they have thought about how those flags represent the loss of hundred of thousands of their comrades in arms?

6. Grew up in South, I call that damn symbol of hatred "America's Swastika."

[PJMcK]

7. Something I cannot understand

A man who lives down the road from us flies both an American flag and a Confederate flag in his yard. These two symbols are mutually exclusive so how can he fly them both?

Clearly, he’s not a thinking person.

10. They also imagine themselves being on the side of the rebels in the

Revolutionary War. They are autocrats. They need a Daddy to tell them what to think. They would have been loyalists to the crown.

8. Because they are LOSERS!
