quote [ Much of the criticism directed at HBO has been at the potential dangers of portraying modern slavery in a way that might inflame real-life race relations. Bloys insisted that the portrayal will be nuanced.
“The producers have said they’re not looking to do ‘Gone With the Wind’ 2017,” Bloys said. “It’s not whips and plantations. It’s what they imagine a modern day institution of slavery would look like.” “Confederate” will begin shooting after production wraps on the eighth and final season of “Game of Thrones” next year. ] A Twitter campaign to stop the show.

I think http://www.returnofkings.com/126374/new-tv-series-confederate-will-be-used-to-browbeat-and-humiliate-southern-whites really broke down how this would go:
-Insinuation that the C.S.A. maintained peaceful or even supportive relations (similar to or even beyond authoritarian Spain) with fascist Germany and Italy in the World War II era. This is despite the C.S.A. being a constitutional Republic, which would have despised any notion of authoritarianism/fascism.
-The Confederacy is a true “white supremacy” the left always dreams about. All non-whites are 2nd class individuals who cannot vote and must give up their seats, tip their hats, step aside on footpaths, and open doors for whites without any expectation of reciprocity.
-Slaves will be beaten with whips on a regular basis. Expect lots of close-up shots of bloodied backs, distressed and crying faces, and tear-jerking melodramatic music made to instill maximum white guilt and maximum anger among Hillary and Bernie bots.
-Complete omission or mention of Jewish slave holders or traders, despite huge Jewish involvement in the slave trade. It must be 100% White Christians.
-White southerners will be given atrocious and room temperature-IQ sounding accents.
-Slaves will be bought, traded, or sold on Tinder-like smartphone apps (called it!).
-Waffle House imitation chain will be staffed by slaves. “Mo’ grits suh (sir)?”
Chick-Fil-A imitation chain will refuse service even to free blacks (a literal interpretation of the joke that the expensive fast-food joint is a “white” place to eat).
-“Dog The Bounty Hunter” like reality TV shows which follow runaway slave catchers.
-White southern women having sex with black male slaves – (via love and mutual consent, and to get away from their boring and beta slave-owning husband).
-White southern men having sex with black female slaves – (via rape only).

Another alternative history idea: what if we stopped being a bunch of racist fucks?
