I can't stand this ridiculous worship of the Southern cause and the absolute, criminal revision of history and the Southern cause. It was about slavery. The leaders of the Secession said it was about slavery. The documents arguing for each states secession were all about slave owner rights. This is a fact. It was always a fact. It will remain a fact.

The war was about slavery. Stop worshiping the goddamn south. As a Texan, with a LOT of relatives in my family who were on Confederate battle rosters, I cannot implore this enough: stop it. Dixie is dead, long live the Union, get over it and move on.

Guy who made it probably had no idea what that image was, CNN couldn't even identify the ISIS flag from a flag of dildos and buttplugs.

The population is naturally reacting to threats. The "populist lunatics" as you call them will ony ever increase in popularity as these threats are amped up.

Having a high tolerance to others is a good virtue for when you're in debates.

Yeah -- one is an attack on the fundamental underpinnings of the USA, and the other was just a terrorist incident.

Reviving extinct species is a specific goal to work towards that will lead to a lot of discoveries and inventions?

Possibly, but it seems to me that improving currently existing species would be more productive than essentially devolving them into earlier versions. And why predatory dinosaurs? Why not work on resurrecting something less dangerous like fish or mammoths?
