Confedegrad

Confederate refers to someone who supports or is part of a confederation—an alliance of independent groups or states united for a common purpose, often retaining their sovereignty. Historically, the term is most associated with the Confederate States of America (1861-1865), which was a group of Southern states that seceded from the United States over issues like states’ rights and slavery. In general, calling someone a Confederate indicates their alignment or sympathies with such an alliance or movement, often emphasizing regional identity, political ideology, or historical context.
