Actually, I think plenty of losers of war are glorified. Britain has it's love of Boudica, for example. The French love of Joan of Arc. Both ultimately losers in war.
That said, what countries glorify losers of war who were FIGHTING to enslave others? That's a bit different I think? But I don't intend to judge and it's veering off topic anyway. |

Oh and Greece of course. Some of their most venerated heroes ever lost big. (such as Spartacus).

But yeah, I really could care less if a toy has the proper Stars n Bars flag on it. I'm fine with changing it. Just don't erase the past in the process. |

He is a Hasbro military action figure. ;) You are correct we can't Judge. Hasbro hasn't... but... needs to make a 1/12 Judge Dredd movie figure. Then we can freely Judge and Veer.

Despite the Civil War. Former enemies (Federal and confederates) fought together in the Spanish American War and the Philippine American War.

Yes, confederates were fighting against the United States of America during the Civil War. Those same people swore and oath of alliance and the country was reunited after the war.

I am afraid that the general population not reading and understanding history is a dangerously bad trend.
It isn?t ?innocent? or ?no big deal? and the fact that it was prominently featured in Smokey, Dukes of Hazard and a kids toy line says a lot about how this country never really came to grips with the past and the ensuing repercussions. |
