>>94167817>Hell, people would be more inclined to give a shit about lower class whites if they didn't immediately drive around with giant Confederate flags in their trucks whenever they don't get their way.People always idolize the last age in which they were prosperous, and assume that any accompanying major change is to blame for their downfall.
Since the south never recovered after the civil war, of course they wave the flag of the last time they had dignity and assume "it's all the darkies' fault."
Doesn't help that no money means bad education, and our senators are going out of their way to keep us like this.It's also why Hitler got all of Germany to back him in taking revenge on half of Europe while annexing the other half to reestablish an empire, and why Jewish immigrants were blamed.
And why Trump can yell "make America great again" and blame Mexican immigrants and Arabic immigrants and government regulation of business for all problems since Nixon.
It's why Japan wanks so hard about the samurai period before widespread gun use was introduced and passive-aggressively resent us baka gaijin.
It's why many French look back to the Napoleonic era. It's why Mongols won't shut up about Ghengis. It's why "WE WUZ KANGZ N SHEEIT." It's why ISIS wants to recreate a region-spanning caliphate.
It's a law of human nature.
