Well, I'll toss out 1 last summary of points I tried to make.

1) I love Ken Kesey - I thought someone would know the Sometimes A Great Notion reference and appreciate the ending. No, the bird wasn't pointed at anyone.

2) while the left was winning on the flag, it lost big on TPA/TPP. Hold that flag close to your pocket book.

3) The flag is of course freedom of speech - the flag on the courthouse isn't.

4) Flags usually symbolize war and violence.

5) Yes the rebel flag was tied to secession, the fight against the north, the fight to preserve the horrid institution of slavery. But it was also tied to southern pride as well as resistance to Civil Rights. Some people love it, some people hate it. As for the public courthouse it's pretty obvious that those who hate it should win. The Confederate flag is coming down in multiple states.

6) The British put India into subservience over 120 years under that grand Union Jack,reversed in 1947. The French put Algeria under servitude for 150 years until 1961, when they killed 1 million Algerians struggling for independence. If you think slavery died in 1865, you weren't paying attention.

7) violence to blacks keeps occurring across the country, certainly not just southern states. Bringing down the flag helps with symbolism, but there will be quite some effort to turn symbolism into reality, at least past this week's news blips. A lot of other battles to fight.

That's my take on the situation - y'all might think different.

Hey, Mr. Day. If you mean the discussions here lately, not sure I understand them either.

I don't think anyone here wishes to keep the Confederate flag.

However, there is a strong desire to keep the TPM flag flying here.

Personally, I'm, like you, almost jubilant at the announcements of yesterday. Then I wonder if i'm a victim of the Stockholm syndrome.

Will this tragedy inch us forward in revealing what racism is, and how society moves beyond it? I hope so. Is taking the flag down going to address our militarism, oligarchy, trashing of the environment? Maybe indirectly.

We are cockeyed optimists. Keep your flag flying.

I do not wish to bug you Oxy, but what the hell are they arguing about at rmrd?

I do not understand the argument.

Do some folks wish to keep the Confederate Flag?

Why?

This is all out of the context of your blog.

But I cannot figure out the angst or the anger or the dispute?

Sorry to bother you, I just cannot figure this out.

Moat, great insights here. To my mind they are losers and their special anonymity is along the line of "escape from freedom".

But once more than 20% of the population is bound up in stocks in the commons, commerce fails, common stocks plunge, society collapses.

I don't think the process is driven by the desire to be seen as much as it is driven by the desire to disappear. The media looks like a process of display but it is not.

Only the losers of whatever game is being played are bound in stocks in the commons.

Right, I get the reptilian level.

It's the abstract levels which make me curious---the meaningless, self-defeating, pre-occupied, nihilistic behaviors which indicate that societal bonds are coming unglued.

Exhibitionism and Voyeurism are completely natural but many people doesn't want to talk about them. It is great that you wrote this article so that more and more people could understand.
