Out of curiosity, what's your stance on Confederate uniforms? Existed for a short period of time, supporting a country established to preserve slavery...

Somewhere in between, I suppose. I don't think they're as bad as Nazi uniforms but I think they're worse than US cavalry uniforms, and they definitely bother me a lot more on an emotional level.

I think maybe one of the things to keep in mind with the Confederacy is that it's still a live issue in many places in the US. There are still a lot of people who are very willing to defend the legacy of the CSA, and many strains of thinking in American politics come out of Confederate apologism, and rehabilitating the CSA uniform and flag is closely connected to that. So there's that to keep in mind.

NAYRT, but they make me uncomfortable. I don't really mind them in a reenactment scenario (well, not entirely true; there are some reenactors that pull a 'heroic confederate' stance), but otherwise nope.

/reenactor here

Some, but it's not uncommon for troops representing a state [and this is something I've particularly noticed with troops portraying the confederacy] to be from outside the South*, or for a unit to be able to fill in for whatever side needs more troops for that particular reenactment.

So that attitude isn't as common as a lot of people think. But maybe I've just been lucky.

*the biggest unit representing my state is actually based in NY

Depends. One of the things with confederate uniforms [or hell, talking about the Civil War in general] is that no matter what you say someone is going to take it the wrong way and throw a massive fit over it.

Ex. The people who are southern apologists will throw a massive fit if you imply the antebellum south wasn't a wonderful awesome place. At the same time, pointing out that the Union army wasn't exactly knights in shining armor/there were people in the south who weren't all about the slavery you get called a southern apologist.

So...outside of a reenactment setting, something that's touchy and probably best avoided.

tl;dr: A very touchy subject that's best avoided for the most part.

100% okay with Confederate uniforms in a re-enactment aspect, but think they're a little silly to wear to a con. I legit can't think of a scifi or anime reason to wear one in the first place.
