Where we meme (joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment) about General Sherman, the Civil War, and how the secesh traitors had it coming.

RULES

  1. No bigotry. The Union, or at least the part of the Union WE support, fought AGAINST that shite. We are anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and in general anti-bigot here, even if not all the lads in Union blue uniforms were.

  2. No Confederate sympathizing. Anti-democratic racist slaver traitors don't deserve shit.

  3. Follow all Piefed.social rules

The only thing these shitwits have ever cared about is re-cementing the control of racist reactionaries over the Federal government, both before and 'after' they discarded the US flag. The blood on the US flag is significant and not to be downplayed, but it stands for something other than just cruelty. The Confederate flag has no such claim.

Their whole way of life should've been crushed back when they couldn't vote.

There was once a soldier who got a Confederate flag tattoo and posted it on Reddit, but r/army gave him a good grilling, and this famous comment.

My only regret with the American south is that Tecumseh Sherman didn't keep burning and the lawful federal government of the United States of America didn't grind their shitty backwards culture into the dirt to start fresh like we did with the Germans and Japanese. Maybe then the south wouldn't still be poor and full of hate. The cruelest thing the union did was give the south mercy in 1865.

Although, I remember learning that Sherman didn't really burn as much as the south exaggerated that he did.

Amen. I blame Andrew Johnson.
