Confederate flag is the 'American Swastika'?

I call it a symbol of justice denied. In his famous letter to Horace Greeley, Abraham Lincoln admitted that the war was nothing to do with slavery. It was about central government power -- "the union" in Lincoln's terms.  Kids are taught to recite a pack of sententious lies called the Gettysburg address -- in which he claimed to stand for "goverment of the people by the people for the people" -- exactly what he had just denied to the South

Quentin Tarantino considers the Confederate flag the 'American swastika' - and feels it is 'about damn time' that people questioned its place in the American South.

Tarantino's comment was made during an interview to promote his latest film, The Hateful Eight, which is due to hit the big screen on January 8 in the UK.

The film is set a few years after the American Civil War and it puts the spotlight on strained race relations in the country.

The way of life and the prosperity of the Southern whites was on the backs of the victims of the vicious evil of slavery.

The way of life of the elites and their vast brain dead, loafer class minions is built on the backs of the victims of the vicious evil of oppressive government, propagandist media and PC thought control.

It was mostly a war over economic survival. Due to slavery the south had cheap labour thus cheaper production costs, would soon have secured nearly all of the European trade relations, which would have lead to the south becoming the greater power and the north likely slipping towards inconsequence. Understandably the south did not want to support the north, and from the North's perspective, to survive it had to unify the nation while it still had the power to do so. The south's economic advantage of slavery was the primary issue, the humanistic part of slavery was tacked onto it and dressed to make it seem like the main issue. Its understandable. If I put myself in the mindset of either side then I probably would have support that side at that time. The war was inevitable, and I think, had the best outcome.

Yes I watched one of Tarantino's movies the other evening, called Django. It was quite silly - modern day American black slang used in a historical setting, a nice black man grotesquely killing dozens of nasty white men, silly sound effects like squashed blubber every time a white man got shot, it was clearly made to be a lefty's wet dream.

Tarantino has no qualifications as a historian or scholar (as his movies profoundly show)and his opinions are just that opinions and as worthless as most of his movies. They have the appeal of fast paced gory action but not much else.
