    So let’s continue to celebrate the death of the confederacy, so that no more good people fall to propaganda and conscription

    The problem is we didn’t drop it when we had the chance, so the first chance they got they rewrote the history books.

      It’s fucking horrific. From the late 1870s to the 1940s, Lost Causers were borderline unchallenged in historical academia. We’re still recovering from that.

      Yes, I agree, the Confederacy is a stain on the history of America and their desire to own other human beings cost the lives of 620,000 people. Included in that total are 258,000 Southerners, the majority of whom were victims of circumstance themselves.
