Honestly, I don’t get why it’s celebrated really. Yeah, you can be proud of your great great grandfather. I don’t begrudge people at all who do that really but the attempts to sugarcoat the realities of what the Confederacy was all about is what offends me. They fired on a US military fort. What could be more treasonous than that? One of the interesting things I read about the confederate government itself is that it had problems due to ironically Jefferson Davis trying to centralize everything and stuff. So, it would seem to me that the idea was flawed from the start.
