    Actual answer, they’re re-renaming military bases that had confederate general’s names removed from them. Ya know, the bases that were named that way during Jim Crow to intimidate black folk to stay away from the military? Yeah, they’re just so unsure why anyone wouldn’t want those bases named that. So they’re putting the confederate names back.
