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.

I don't think when you're talking to intellectually dishonest racists that you need to entertain the idea they are arguing in good faith about the primary motivation for the civil war. The point is that they're mad racists and it's fun to rile them up about a conflict the south started and then lost.
True enough
I love the ones that have built up an entire fake history in their minds, watching them get slammed by facts, dates and honest history just fucks their entire world up and I'm here for it.
