Idiot Liberals Propose ‘New Southern Flag’ to Replace Confederate Battle Flag

If we don’t have enough idiotic proposals going on across these United States, a group of progressive libs have designed a “new southern flag” to replace the Confederate battle flag. No, they are serious.

This is probably the dumbest idea I’ve heard of in a long time.

In the heated debate surrounding the Confederate Flag, the defense offered by many has been that the symbol isn’t representative of a culture built on slavery and racism but is, instead, a banner representing that Southerners are simply proud of their home, their people and their culture.

“What other symbol immediately lets the world know you are from the South?” they argue.

To tackle the problem, Studio 360, a national public radio program, commissioned a Texas-based design firm to design a new flag to represent the modern South. With a diverse team of designers with ties to both sides of the Mason-Dixon line, 70kft embraced the challenge with an understanding of the importance of their task.

“The South is unique as a region in that it already has an informal definition,” Gus Granger, founding principal of 70kft and a lead creative on the redesign project, said in a conversation with AL.com. The problem is that, obviously, this community that people feel so passionate about “has out of date visual assets to help define its identity.”

First of all, the Confederate battle flag isn’t *just* a flag. It is an historical artifact. You can’t just “decide” that the Confederacy has a new flag 150 years after it ended.

This is just another example of liberals foolishly trying to rewrite history.
