For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

We all know what the Confederate Flag stands for but remember that in 1967 some Black Panthers created a coalition with the Young Patriots (white lower class group) and used the flag to further their cause together.
This group of Black Panther members fought for equality but the problem was they saw not all white people were treated equally. So they decided to fight for the white lower class too.
Maybe they don't understand where the flag really comes from. Maybe they have a story to tell.
