It confirms at the bottom that it's a satire piece. Meanwhile, anyone looking at the amount of laws we have created as a society could easily conclude humanity has become quite insane.

: By David Martin - July 14, 2021

: Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), the newest member of the House of
: Representatives group known as “The Squad” and who gained
: prominence with her Fourth of July tweet saying that the

: freedom being celebrated was only for white people because
: “Black people still aren’t free,” has introduced a bill
: that would create the Hate Flag Act of 2021 (H.R. 1619).
: The legislation would impose a fine of up to $10,000 and
: imprisonment of up to two years for the private display of
: either the battle flag of the Confederacy or the flag of
: the United States of America . In her floor speech
: introducing the bill, Bush said that her original intention
: was just to outlaw the “disgusting symbol of white
: supremacy,” which she called the Confederate battle flag,
: but then she was reminded of how the American flag has come
: to represent the same thing. She was moved, she said, by
: television coverage of a protest demonstration in
: Scottsdale, Arizona, in which, “Hundreds of people waving
: American flags gathered to protest the federal government’s
: immigration policy in front of a hotel in central
: Scottsdale that is now operating as a short-term migrant
: holding facility for families seeking asylum.”

: “As a practical matter, both in terms of the message intended
: and the message received by oppressed people of color,”
: Bush said, “the American flag has become the new
: Confederate flag.”

: The need to outlaw the Confederate battle flag hardly needed
: any words of explanation, and the outlawing of its display
: is long overdue, said Bush in her speech. “Since the young
: white man, Dylann Roof, had posted photographs of himself
: displaying that offensive flag in 2015 before shooting nine
: people to death at the historic Emmanuel A.M.E. Church in
: Charleston, South Carolina, it has become apparent that
: that flag is nothing but a symbol of hate and has no place
: in America. ”

: In addition to outlawing the private display of the
: Confederate flag, the bill would also make it illegal for
: online hosts of videos such as YouTube to show videos in
: which the flag is displayed , such as scenes from The
: Dukes of Hazzard in which we see the flag painted on the
: roof a Dodge Charger named “General Lee” and in the
: concerts of the white Southern band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, where
: a giant Confederate battle flag is hung as a backdrop on
: their stage. In a separate interview, Bush offered her
: opinion that the group’s 1974 anthem, “Free Bird,” was
: actually a sort of veiled message of white supremacy,
: reminding oppressed Black people that they don’t have the
: freedom that these white performers do and that the “bird”
: in the title stood in stark contrast to the one that
: symbolized the laws in the South that oppressed Black
: people, “Jim Crow.”

: “With the American flag,” said Bush, “it’s a bit more
: complicated.” . . .
