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

I never realized how hard this song goes until I was listening to the Wasteland 3 soundtrack.

The choral renditions were really too good for that game. Not because W3 was bad - it was great. But goddamn, those pieces belonged in some fucking gut-wrenching work of art.
