I saw nothing on that post by M.Espinola that had anything to do with a neo-confederate poster, so why should he ping you?
Espinola posted this slam, to lead off the post:
Being cognizant historical facts relating to either the pre or post Civil War period are thoroughly useless for the mavens of 'confederate' disinformation, the following data is solely for thinking conservative Americans.
The rest of his post was "support" for the derogatory comment.
