A war fought by the poor to protect the interests of the rich, how unusual. To answer your question: I wouldn't have a choice. MY question is, why would someone who's ancestors were forced to kill their fellow countrymen look back fondly on and celebrate said rich guys and their unjust cause?
It's your opinion that's what they do. You think that was going through anybody's mind the entire time millions of people tuned in every week to see Dukes of Hazzard, or did you forget what the General Lee looked like? Guess who was outraged by it...nobody. Black people didn't picket the show, ancestors of slaves didn't picket the show, nobody picketed the show, everybody loved it, everybody was too smart to be offended 'waaaaah, there's a confederate flag on top of the car, it's so racist!'
As much as I agree that the target audience for The Dukes of Hazzard should be the template by which we hold society, how is raising a flag or sticking it on your car not a celebration of said flag? You just went to great lengths to illustrate what a raw deal the men who were forced to fight for the Confederacy got from the Confederacy, so why should anyone wave a Confederate flag? Indifference to what the flag represents because you're distracted by a lady in short shorts is not an answer.

I don't know about that. I'm always curious why someone would blatantly do something that's not socially acceptable. I'm curious that way, too. Right now I'm really, really curious about those rioters who stormed--and breached!--the U.S. Capitol. Does that seem socially acceptable to anybody here? No. But most Confederate flag fans are not terrorists. Fucked up with a shitty philosophy maybe, but being an inbred moron is not against the law.

Liberals get a free pass.
Age old story.
You think liberals who fly rebel flags get a pass? You are aware that several thousands white non-liberals conservatives stormed the Capitol, trashed it, and with a few exceptions mostly walked back out the door getting selfies with the cops. Yet it is the liberals who get a pass. Amazing.

And the thing is, they may not want to be friends either, as much as we may want to be friends or friendly with someone. I have known many people who just don't want to make an effort and judge and ridicule.

Joe Biden would not be friends with him. I support honest Joe.
The answer is yes, report him. Snitching will increase your social score. Watch your neighbors, co-workers and family members closely!!!! Some may be hidden Trump supporters! :-(
A score of over 1300 can be super achieved by lucky super special happy hunters!
