      It’s a reminder to those who display the fake ones proudly that they lost. It’s not mocking the surrender itself, it’s mocking the idea of “lost cause” romanticism or the idea that flying that flag is anything other than celebrating loser traitors.

      It’s a reference to the fact that the flag rednecks fly wasn’t even the Confederate flag. It was the Confederate naval jack. One would think folks who claim “heritage, not hate” would know that.
