Germany Showed Common Sense in Banning the Nazi Flag. Shouldn't the U.S. Have Done the Same With That Confederate Rag?

@beckyromero Lives were lost on both sides, but after war comes peace and for peace to last there must be constant discussion. No side ever won a debate by telling the opposition “I’m right, you’re wrong, so shut up and accept it” If the ideals and arguments of the “right” side are true, it becomes the task to make the opposite side see this. Only then can progress be made. Simply winning a war is only the beginning.

@Cuda6868
For what reason?

What "discussion" would you have liked to have had with Führer Karl Doenitz in May 1945?

@beckyromero I already stated the reason for constant discussion and debate. Technically he was only the President for roughly three weeks to arrange the surrender of Germany. As far as to what discussion I would have “liked” to have with him. The futility of the Nazi cause would have been a good start and it’s horrific effect on the world. Just in the interest of debate, I’m sure the descendants of Hiroshima and Nagasaki would love to talk with Harry S Truman. It can be very difficult to judge the past through our modern lenses, but as I said at the beginning, I don’t believe banning and hiding objects is the solution to the world’s problems.
