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.

The right likes to cosplay patriotism and parrot the language around the core values of liberty, equality and democracy, all while supporting policies that are antithetical to those values.
I wish the Democrats would do a better job of tying their policies to that legacy and pointing out just how full of shit the MAGA crowd is when they try act like they own the American revolution while also openly supporting calls for a dictator.
