  • I like it, but I gradually quit listening to it after seeing Skynyrd use the Confederate loser flag in a concert video

    Lynyrd Skynyrd used a Confederate flag from the 1970s until the 2010s, and several criticisms have been raised against them because of this.[51][52] While promoting the album on CNN on September 9, 2012, members of the band talked about its discontinued use of Confederate imagery.[53] In September 2012, the band briefly did not display the Confederate flag, which had for years been a part of their stage show, because they did not want to be associated with racists that adopted the flag. However, after protests from fans, they reversed this decision, citing it as part of their Southern American heritage and states’ rights symbolism.[54] The band would later cease use of the Confederate flag starting with their 2019 tour.
