Biden... referred to the commemorative group United Daughters of the Confederacy as “an organization made up of many fine people who continue to display the Confederate flag as a symbol.”
So, kiparsky, JGL53, etc.: Is everyone who displays the Confederate flag a racist?

No.

Real live example - OOPS, well he was alive until he died in a car crash back in July of 2015. -

There are still probably three or four, or even five or six non-racist confederate flag-wavers around somewhere. Some of them, like the late Mr. Hervey, may be black. Most, like Mr. Hervey, may be a little bit "touched".

But, then, so what the fuck ever? If you look long enough you can probably find a Jewish Nazi, or a Christian swinger, or a six foot tall dwarf, or a gay guy who demands a government ban on cock-sucking.

Again, so the fuck what? Why do you bother us with these inane interrogatories that prove nothing and just bore the shit out of normal people? Shouldn't you instead be out and about in your neighborhood, waving your tiny penis at passersby and screaming that everyone should vote for Orange Hitler or we'll all be destroyed by the liberal Democrat Chinese conspiracy, or something?

LOL, and fuck.

#1--you should save your energy. Practically everybody has made their mind up and your provocations at this point are only pathetic.

Right, only neo-Nazis, lol.

Most of Orange Hitler's worshipers are not ideological in any way, they are just ignorant morons (or morans, as they think it is spelled, lol.).

LOL. It's painful when something that inconvenient for the narrative happens, huh?

I also note, with further amusement, that kiparsky doesn't seem to want to answer the question in the first post.

#9--I'm sorry Carnophile but I didn't even bother to read your MSM link because seriously I didn't care. In any case I've made it plain here over and over again that I'm not a fan of Biden's--it's a waste of my time to detail that further. Look at it this way---there is no way to move the needle on so many important issues with the present day moron sitting on the throne. He's totally off the rails and his coronavirus response is responsible for at least half and probably more of our dead from it. His dipshittedness in this has also cratered the economy which is going to crater even further leading up to Biden inauguration day. Trump is an inept and narcissistic idiot and a wannabe dictator. You can follow this catastrophic clown into oblivion if you feel like it but he's got to go and IMO hopefully he ends up in a prison cell.

I'll pick up on my critiques of Biden after he's sworn into office if that will make you happy.

Wow, so painful you couldn't bear to read it! Behold the withdrawal symptoms when the supply of "I'm so virtuous" juice is cut off.

#11--For one I considered the source here---in other words 'you' and thought what the fuck! Do I want to read more of this nonsense?...a homework assignment from Carnophile?--and thought not really but consider who has the call out for militia members of all kinds whether they be of the confederate loving stars and bars sort or proud boys, boogalooer's, racist policemen, teenage Kyle Rittenhouse wannabe's, neo-nazi's, klanners, 3%'ers and 1%'ers, etc. to show up on election day at every polling place---all they need is a locked and loaded assault weapon and a fantasy life (you know like kidnapping democratically elected Michigan governors)---those 'good' people aren't showing up for Biden's benefit. He isn't the one asking for their help. So you can go digging back in time for singular events in Biden's history like a discussion with a bunch of aging Southern Belles still trying to figure out who won the American Civil War all you like---those ladies (you can at least have a discussion with them though probably not a very enlightening one) don't represent a clear or a present danger like the other cretins mentioned above.

The source is USA Today, and involves a rather smaller quote than the relative wall of text you wrote in #12 just now.

Trump called for racist policemen, neo-nazi's, and klanners to show up at the polls? Wow, important if true. Source?

...like kidnapping democratically elected Michigan governors...

At least one of the accused kidnap plotters is anti-Trump:

Alleged Whitmer kidnapping plotter posted anti-Trump video

In a video,
Caserta says, "Trump is not your friend, dude. It amazes me that people actually, like, believe that when he’s shown over and over and over again that he’s a tyrant.”
Calling Trump a "tyrant": Pure leftist rhetoric.

One guy says he doesn't like Orange Hitler and that makes it all just one big misunderstanding. Right.
And you're a one-eyed Episcopalian kangaroo. And I'm the king of France. And Q-Anon are geniuses. And Orange Hitler is non-infectious.

#16--I'll never look at Carnophile the same after that apt description.

It shows that the hate-filled rhetoric from the left is harmful and seditious, and encourages and incites violence.

>18 Earthling1:. I'm so used to lefties spewing insults (especially when they're backed into a corner) that I mostly just skim right over them now. The really funny (unintentionally) thing about post 2 is that he went on a screaming rage bender, then tried to finish up with a "LOL," as if he's loftily amused by the whole thing.

Maybe not quite as pointless as saying a post should be flagged but not flagging it yourself. Like a guy holding a bucket of water complaining that "someone should put out the fire!"

No, of course you weren't. You were merely stating that a post should be flagged, when in fact there is already a procedure in place for you to flag posts, so your post was redundant. Others have apparently also flagged that post and it is now hidden, so the system has worked.

Another of the alleged abduction plotters hating on Trump:
