The fact that it wasn't strangled by the world's revulsion decades ago is disgusting.
So when are the Leftist champions of Irish (and Scottish, and Welsh, and Cornish, and Breton, and Basque, and Corsican, and Quebecois) nationalism going to apologize to the Confederacy?
Anti-Catholic Loyalist terror groups are every bit as bad.
Why is there no outrage at these other terror groups? They are all criminals.
Axlrose:
Of course you are right, the loyalists are no better.
They however are not as organised, are not involved in large scale organised crime, do not export terror to other nations (Columbia) do not have extensive funding networks in the US and do not attack civilian targets away from Northen Ireland.
And of course the world (including hypocrites who make a big show of attacking "white nationalism") don't glorify and apologize for the Unionist terrorists. In fact, they are regarded as "racists" and "fascists" while militant advocates of a lilly-pure Gaelic 32-county Ireland are regarded as honorary people of color.
Communists who attack and disrespect George Washington and the American Founders have no business invoking medieval chr*stian monarchs of a lily-white European island as shining examples of "scientific socialism."
