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 Lemmy.world rules

Cultural impact? Shit, I can't say the damn name without that SAY GAH! creeping into my grape. Furthermore, some of the bullshit Nintendo pulls is downright the opposite of a fediverse mentality, so double plus yes. Great share bud, thanks!

I have bad news for you: The Confederates did survive the war, and the north made the mistake of pardoning and accepting LITERAL TRAITORS back in to Congress et. al.

Spice Girls lasted longer than the Confederacy and had a much bigger cultural impact. Plus the reunion tour.

Confederacy been trying for a reunion tour for 150+ years now and they still can't get it together. They're as dysfunctional now as they were when they were touring the border states.

Unfortunately the Confederacy has had a huge impact on our culture. Just ask the people living one street over from me on Robert E Lee Boulevard...

This cute little "gotcha" was funny for a bit. Now it's not.

My punker days lasted longer than the Civil War. Historical impact? 0.00
