Well yeah, but let's not pretend there's not a romanticism applied by some to the word and that period. 'I wish I was in the land of cotton, old times there are not forgotten...'
I think the name change is dumb, but I'm not going to pretend it's just a completely innocent word either.

That’s it. Jesus Christ people have lost their fricking minds.
The longer this keeps going on, parabellum is going the be the Latin word of the day.

Good lord, does any word not offend you? Do we have to rid of the direction “south”?
Will we be able to identify someone as “white”?
Can we say someone cares about an elderly person?
Or will you make everything out to be against your cause?

Oh please.

"Antebellum" means "before the war," but it wasn't widely associated with the U.S. Civil War (1861-1865) until after that conflict was over. The word comes from the Latin phrase "ante bellum" (literally, "before the war"), and its earliest known print appearance in English dates back to the 1840s.

Ghey
Every time something like this happens, I want to say "frick them. I'm not buying their shite anymore." But... for the most part, I haven't been buying liberal shite to begin with. I've also decided I'm done with pro sports, but I haven't purchased a ticket to an NFL event in 20 years.

But the A still stands for Antebellum 
Posted on 6/11/20 at 10:36 am to MorbidTheClown
So does that also mean the phrase before war is now racist? This is getting hard to follow.

In what way is that word racist? In what way? I hate this fricking country right now. This is pathetic.

FFS it's a manner of dress, of speech, of regional culture, etc.

I really can't imagine how you make it through a day with all the bullshite you have to keep crying about that must constantly run through your mind.

who listens to the pure shite that comes out of Nashville these days anyway.
Posted on 6/11/20 at 10:44 am to MorbidTheClown
Let's ask Hank Jr., and Charlie Daniels how they feel about this.

My first reaction too. Pretty ignorant on the bands part here.

I just sent this to my wife (no pics perverts) who is a fan. I got this back: "that's so fricking stupid"
Posted on 6/11/20 at 10:49 am to MorbidTheClown
Oh my God.
That might be the weakest, dumbest thing I've ever read.
I'm so ready to be done with all of this pandering bullshite. Make it stop!

In what way is that word racist? In what way?
Any reference to the old south is racist.
If I acknowledge my ancestors from the south I am racist.
There are an endless line of words that show I am racist. The southern thing is just one.

The only appropriate name change would be to shorten it to La-a
