Please enlighten us.


The USA is a union of sovereign states. Some states elected to leave the union. There was no treason. Treason is a betrayal of one’s country. Nobody betrayed their country. Dumbfricks with little knowledge of pre-Civil War history, and no common sense, can’t grasp these concepts.

This is going to cost them millions.

A company in the South. In rural North Carolina. Located in a county that Donald Trump won in 2016, 2020, and 2024.

This has to be another Cracker Barrel CEO type person who pulled this stunt. Nobody with 2 brain cells would have done something this stupid with any clear business sense.

Then these sovereign states fired on Americans at Ft. Sumpter. They knew it meant war and war was what they got.

Tell us how come they left the Union. Were they oppressed?

It is funny in a thread about an event some states did not attend, and a pickle company chose not to be associated with that has caused a meltdown in a segment that is OK with those who tried to rear apart the nation we are all currently celebrating.

I don’t have a problem with any private company doing whatever they want. You also don’t have to buy their products. See what happened to Bud Light as a product. Let them tell you who they are.

To remove a foreign power from their territory.

Because it no longer suited them. Period. No further justification required.

No one is melting down. Merely pointing out leftist stupidity.

Typical of right wing cancel culture.


Choosing not to associate or do business with someone is not cancel culture. Demanding something or someone be completely removed from the market because you disagree is cancel culture.

I completely reject the lefty attempt to redefine words to mean something they do not.

Interesting


Is there a video of this advertisement? The news article somehow didn't include it, because I guess we're all just supposed to take this pickle company at its word over how egregious this is.

The basic reasons for the Civil War exist just as strongly today as they did back then. No need to change the flag! We'll use the same one this next go around!

Ft. Sumpter was American territory. The people inside did not succeed.

Should not have started an unprovoked war.

If there was no oppression than it was treason, otherwise what was their reason? Was America taking from them their freedom, income, liberty, or properties?

Yes, yes, yes, and yes.

Nope. Inside South Carolina. Upon SC’s secession, the US troops there became invaders.

The Confederate flag in a celebration of America 250 is a poor choice. Some consider their rebellion treasonous and offensive for such an occurrence.

Considering how things are today, it’s a shame that we lost.

You northerners fricking suck.

Hopefully this ends up being a FAFO moment for them and they go bankrupt.

Sorry about that but the Southern cause was evil. There would have been no Civil War if the Successionists had not assaulted American Forts like Sumpter. Until then the majority of northern sentiment was to let them leave.

The Southern soldiers were fighting for self-determination. None of those dirt poor illiterates from down the bayou and up the holler were fighting for a rich man to keep his slaves.

And just what year did Ohio end slavery? The Northern economic model evolved to the point where free throwaway workers were cheaper than slaves and suddenly they had moral objections? Just how many years of "free-state" status did Ohio enjoy to hang this much smug condescension on it? 10 years? 12?

Looks like no more Mt. Olive pickles for me.

These mfers will never learn to keep their politics to themselves.
