The lower classes desperately need somebody to be lower than them on the socioeconomic scale.

It was started by the wealthy southern gentry.

I'm 6th generation Mississippi, still live here. Really wanna argue about this with me?

>>1988783
Ok, which time was the KKK "started" by wealthy southern gentry, the first or second time?

>>1988805
Both actually. First Klan was started by a bunch of disgruntled CSA generals and planters in Tennessee and the second one was started by a doctor from Georgia. Not exactly "low class".

>>1988727
How can they be anti semitic christians but worship a dead jew?

I know making fun of their costumes is beating a dead horse but who the hell thought they were a good idea?

>>1989027
>distinctive

>hides your identity
>easily made with cheap household goods
Seems like a good idea to me.

>>1988727
>Be Christian.
>Burn Cross
What did they mean by this?

>>1989027
The costume originated because early Klansman though it would be a good idea to dress up as the ghosts of dead Confederate soldiers. Because black people are scared of ghosts and symbolism.

>>1989092
They see the burning as a symbolic "illuminating" though the cross. It's not meant to be disrespectful, but as you can tell from the above example, they don't do symbolism very well.

The earlier stuff seemed a bit more intimidating, if just because it was more garish.

tbqh I think they should have not gone with the pointed hood. The rest of the getup is suitable for lynching negroes, but let's be honest, the pointy hood is silly.

>>1989144
>the pointy hood is silly.
It looks a lot like what certain Spanish penitentes wear during Holy Week, a tradition that started because people, wanting to appear penitent, dressed up like idiots (with a dunce cap), and hid their faces out of shame.

I haven't ever seen something definitely linking the two or saying the klan copied the symbolism, but klan hoods do look almost exactly like capirotes. Whether it was intentional or not, it's a funny bit of symbolism.

>>1989116
It was the costume that the boarder reaviers wore while raiding in Scotland and northern England

>>1988727

blacks are everywhere in the south

>>1988727
they were sore losers
admittedly their region tanked economically, but that's to be expected when you fight a war on your home soil, win or lose

>>1989221
complete and utter bollocks

>>1989251
Nope. They wore white hoods abd cloaks Ann's would carry crosses when chasing People that attacked and killed their family members.

>>1988727
They were basically rendered powerless by a Superman radio program, they were clearly trying their hardest to compensate for having nothing in their lives going foe them other than their skin color

>>1989265
Reivers were typically outfitted with either morions or burgonets which is why they were colloquially known as "steel bonnets" and family feuds were a fact of life in the borderlands so there was no reason for them to hide their identity. Unless you can provide some evidence to support your claim, it's nothing more than an old wives tale that probably originated from the fact that many American southerners have Scots-Irish heritage.

You do know that it was a rebellion right? The south wanted succession, not to take any land or capital. A "union" can only be defined using the aspect of "consent" - the south wished to be withdrawn from the union and was attacked in a way that broke the constitution and was illegitimate in any way.

TLDR: The south wanted to break up with its abusive bf and the bf broke its nose and dragged it back into the house before shackling it up to the bedposts and fucking it for 100 years.

>The south did not want to take any land


That's not how the folks at Fort Sumter saw things.

>>1989329
This.

Because Jesus wasn't the same kind of jew you see walking around today, and this is a shitty lie made up by kikes to discredit a religion they loathe deeply

>>1988823
The Second Klan was a massive scam that only mid-western hicks and southerners were dumb enough to fall for.

>>1989116
>>1989144
I thought it was because they were trying to imitate crusader imagery?
Or was that just birth of a nation stuff?

Also why are the ranks called things like 'grand goblin' or 'high dragon'? Have they been playing too much DnD?

>>1990821
Because they sounded cool, so you'd pay your subscriptions in hope of getting a kick-ass title like Imperial Cyclops.

The first Christians were Jewish, retard.

All of modern day Christianity is derived by Christ and his Apostles, all Jews.

More important, why do people in the media still pretend the Klan has any influence nowadays?

Isnt it like 400 guys max, who basically do this

2nd Temple Judaism of Jesus's day was incredibly different than modern day rabbinic judaism. Modern jews claiming jesus would like mormons claiming Constantine.
