So why are Laborites voting for the Stars and Bars?

A lot of people have been acting like children throughout this ordeal - it is quite sad to see. It is a disgrace that a flag representing the Confederacy won the vote. The EO issued by the president is also completely out of line and was an inappropriate overreaction that just made the situation worse.

This referendum vote isn't even binding. The Chamber still has to adopt it. Rather than participate in these childish behaviors and further sink the dignity of this game, I will be contacting each Southern Delegate urging them not to adopt this flag, and in the event they do and the Governor signs, I will formulate a petition to call a referendum on the legislation. We have processes in place to fight this.

We are supposed to be creating a more welcoming Atlasia - adopting a flag that symbolizes the Confederacy, and the subsequent actions that followed this morning, do not adhere to that mission.  Common sense (and cooler heads) will hopefully prevail here.
