Were Confederate soldiers terrorists?

[DrPhil]

This attempt at a debate is so tautological on BOTH sides and typical (almost verbatim).

Of course, a photo of a Black man wearing medals could be explained as his being proud of the medals. Afterall, he wore them. That's proof positive because surely there's no other reason why he would wear them, right? The same goes for the Blacks who "willingly" fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War. Go get em, tiger!!

Of course, the nature of the Confederacy will be touted as oppressive and negative (and Blacks who aren't offended by the Confederate ANYTHING would be considered ill-informed and hoodwinked and bamboozled). Afterall, we are essentially taught that some things are damn near inherently evil. Who WOULDN'T agree with all of that when there are catch words such as "racism" and "slavery" attached to it such that "Confederate" and "white supremacy" are synonymous.

Yay.
