Confederate monuments are ok, but lynching memorial monuments are going too far

The confederacy was a lot more relevant and not everything they did was bad, some here would have you believe the confederacy was as bad as the third Reich.

The Confederacy, a rebellious cause of 4 years, was a lot more relevant than a system of oppression and terrorism that has had impacts reaching over 150 years beyond its end after 250 years as an institution? The Confederacy, an organization that was created to protect the institution which that installation memorializes, is more relevant than the institution of slavery itself?

Bullshit.
