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

Explanation: In the mid-19th century AD, many Irish immigrants, fleeing poor conditions in British-controlled Ireland, came to the USA. During the US Civil War (1861-1865), Irish-dominated units established a reputation for bravery in combat, and were one of the largest immigrant groups to participate in the victory of the Union over the pro-slavery South.
I said unto our colonel, "We must fight hand-to-hand
Until we plant the Stars and Stripes way down in Dixieland!"
